3.2 Adding the Sensor to the System
Before you begin using the sensor, it needs to be added to the Home8 system first. To activate the sensor
with the Security Shuttle, complete the following steps.
Note:
1. Make sure the Security Shuttle is powered on and connected to your router.
2. We recommend NOT installing the battery before sensor is successfully activated to avoid false alarm
during pairing.
