ADDING MATTER PRODUCTS TO ANOTHER HOME NETWORK OR MATTER FABRICS
Once the Matter device is successfully added to the SMART+ App, you can generate the QR code or numeric code for the other Matter Fabrics or Ecosystems. Therefore, you need to generate a new QR code or numeric code here. This QR code or numeric code can be found under the option "Add Matter Device to Another Home Network" in the settings for the product. This QR code or Numeric code can then be scanned or entered in the other ecosystem. You can generate the QR code anytime with "Generate again".
The QR and numeric codes are valid for 5 minutes; after that, a new QR and numeric code must be generated. There is a limit of maximum 5 Fabrics which can be linked to each Product.
