+ | ===== Gateway and sensor pairing ===== | ||
+ | After powering the sensor for the first time, it needs to be paired with the gateway. The led on the sensor will be blinking red, to indicate that it is not yet paired to a gateway. | ||
- | ===== Configuration ===== | + | If it is not blinking red, but both the green and the red LED are on, it needs to be unpaired first: press and hold the little reset button in the sensor. As soon as you press the button the LED will turn green. Hold the button until the LED starts blinking red. |
+ | To let the gateway search for and pair with free sensors, press the button on the gateway for 5 seconds. The led on the gateway will start blinking red. First slow then both leds (gateway and sensor) will start blinking red fast. If sensor is found the led will shortly blink orange. | ||
+ | |||
+ | The discovery will take anywhere between 30 seconds and 12 minutes. The 12 minutes can be because of a software update. | ||
+ | |||
+ | When the update process is completed then the sensor LED will be off, and the gateway LED will be green with short intermittent blips of red. | ||

+ | ===== Configuration on the GX device ===== | ||
+ | |||
+ | ==== Wireless AC sensor menu ==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | To configure the gateway and sensor go to the Wireless AC sensor menu | ||
+ | |||
+ | Settings → Wireless AC Sensors | ||
+ | |||
+ | If the gateway is connect to the network it will be shown in the list. If one or more AC sensors are connected these will also show in the list. When connected for the first time only the ID number will be shown and no location. This needs to be selected for the sensor to work properly. | ||
