Here's what works, and how. Three brands, three integration stories.
Works with PIXIE

Three great fan brands. One control system.

Hunter Pacific International
PIXIEM098 Module

Works with most Hunter Pacific DC ceiling fans

Hunter Pacific's DC 9-speed fans integrate directly with PIXIE, no additional module required. Control fan speed and, where a light kit is fitted, lights, all from the same rotary dial, app, or Touch Panel. Hunter Pacific makes scores of models across home and commercial applications.

PIXIE works with most Hunter Pacific DC 9-speed ceiling fan models. Compatibility varies by model. Ask your electrician to confirm before specifying.
Ventair Skyfan
FanLink module (FLINKPIX)

Ventair Skyfan: one module, full control

The FanLink module (FLINKPIX) plugs directly into the Skyfan receiver port with no additional wiring. Add the PIXIE app and your Skyfan instantly gains full smart home control: speed, light (where applicable), scheduling, voice control, and multiway dial control. Available in black and white.

FanLink is specific to Ventair Skyfan models only and is sold separately through electrical wholesalers.
Big Ass Fans
Works with PIXIE

Big Ass Fans: high-end fans, full smart home integration

Big Ass Fans: the Haiku, Sidekick, i6, and commercial Essence range, integrate with PIXIE for full control including speed, light, scheduling, and multiway control. These are among the most capable and aesthetically refined ceiling fans available in Australia, and PIXIE makes them a natural part of a connected home.

How PIXIE works with Big Ass Fans
Ceiling fan compatibility note: Ceiling fan compatibility with PIXIE depends on the fan model and its built-in receiver. Your electrician can confirm compatibility at quoting stage. PIXIE works with DC speed controller fans from the above brands, not AC fans or fans with proprietary non-PIXIE receivers.
The wall control that brings it all together. Whichever brand of fan you've chosen, the same rotary dial is the in-home experience that matters most.
The PIXIE Rotary Controller

One dial. Every fan in the room.

The SMFR/BTAS is a Bluetooth Mesh wall-mounted rotary dial that pairs to any fan in your PIXIE home. It replaces the old single-location pull chain or IR remote, and goes much further.

It installs into a standard wall plate and fits the PIXIE Ambience range. Each SMFR/BTAS can be assigned to:

  • A single fan, with full 9-speed control and light on/off where applicable
  • A group of fans, controlling all of them simultaneously
  • A scene, triggering a preset fan speed across the whole home

The same dial that controls your fan can also have a scene, a group of lights, or another device paired to its button tap. It's one device with multiple jobs.

Ceiling fan with PIXIE smart control
📱 The wall dial and the app always stay in sync. Control is also available from the PIXIE PLUS app, PIXIE Touch Panel, and voice via Google Assistant, Alexa, and Siri. Change speed from the app, the dial updates. Turn off from the dial, the app reflects it.
Now here's what makes PIXIE fan control genuinely different.
Control that wasn't possible before

One to many. Many to one. Both on the same system.

Standard ceiling fan control has always had the same ceiling: one dial, one location, one fan. PIXIE removes all three constraints. Here's what that means in practice.

One fan, multiple control points

Control the bedroom fan from the door, and from both sides of the bed.

In a master bedroom, you typically want fan control in at least three places: at the door, and at each side of the bed. With standard fan control, that's not possible. There's one receiver, one IR remote, one location.

With PIXIE, you simply pair additional SMFR/BTAS rotary dials to the same fan. Each dial can be mounted anywhere in the room. All dials stay in sync: speed up from one, every dial reflects the new speed. Turn off from either bedside: the fan turns off.

This is multiway fan control. For the first time, it works for ceiling fans.

Rotary Dial Bedside right

All dials stay in sync automatically

Multiple fans, one controller

One dial controls them all. Each fan still controllable individually.

In a large alfresco, beer garden, or open-plan space with multiple ceiling fans, the standard approach requires a separate switch or remote for each fan. The result is a wall full of controls, inconsistent speeds, and a workflow that nobody actually uses.

With PIXIE, group all the fans together in the PIXIE PLUS app and pair the group to a single SMFR/BTAS rotary. Turn the dial: every fan adjusts to the same speed. Set a schedule: all fans come on before opening time. Individual control is always available from the app and Touch Panel when you need it.

A single dial. The whole space.

Maximum of 8 fans per group.

Fan 2
Fan 3
Fan 4
Fan 5

Up to 8 fans per group

Yoga studios, alfresco bars, commercial offices. PIXIE scales beyond the home.

The same PIXIE fan control that works in a master bedroom works in a 40-cover beer garden. Operators create groups, set schedules, and manage fan speed from a single wall controller or mobile device across any number of fans. Individual and group control coexist. Venue staff never need app access if wall dials are installed.
