Swann WT06 Wifi Sensor
OVERVIEW
BATTERY INSTALLATION
- Unscrew the sensor cover with the supplied screwdriver and lift it off.
- Insert the supplied two AAA batteries into the battery compartment according to the polarity markings (+ and -) shown. Pairing mode will automatically activate on the sensor for 3 minutes when batteries are inserted. The sensor status light will blink blue slowly during pairing mode. If you have downloaded the Swann Security app on your mobile device (see page 4), you can proceed to the pairing process (see page 5). Note: Pairing mode on the sensor can be activated at any time by re-inserting the batteries.
- After you have paired the sensor, replace the cover and screw it firmly in place Should you need to replace the batteries in the future, there is no need to re-pair the sensor. Simply wait for pairing mode to timeout (3 minutes), after which the sensor will automatically reconnect to the previously configured Wi-Fi network.
DOWNLOAD THE SWANN SECURITY APP
- Download the latest version of the Swann Security app from the Apple App Store® or Google Play™ Store on your iOS or Android device. Simply search for “Swann Security”.
- Open the app and create your Swann Security account by tapping “Not yet registered? Sign Up” at the bottom of the screen. Then, activate your Swann Security account by confirming the verification email that is sent to the registered email address.
SET UP THE SENSOR
Open the Swann Security app and tap the Pair Device button on the screen. If
you have already paired a device, tap the menu icon in the top left and select
“Pair Device”. The app will now guide you through the pairing process and set
up your sensor. Before you begin, have the sensor with you and be close to
your router. Please note that the sensor can connect to a 2.4GHz Wi-Fi network
only.
MOUNTING THE SENSOR
Take the time to choose a location and properly check the orientation of the
sensor and the magnet. The sensor and magnet should ideally be positioned in a
way that when the window or door is closed, they are aligned side by side,
less than 10mm (3/8″) apart. See Mounting Examples on the next page.
Also, make sure the sensor location has strong, reliable Wi-Fi reception
available so you can get timely alerts. As a general rule, the nearer your
sensor is to your Wi-Fi router, the better the wireless connection quality.
You can expand the Wi-Fi coverage of your current network by installing a Wi-
Fi range extender.
- For reliable bonding, clean the surface where the sensor and magnet will be mounted with an alcohol/cleaning wipe, and let dry.
- Fit the sensor and the magnet with appropriate double-sided tapes.
- Select a location on the window/door. Attach the sensor to the window/door frame and the magnet to the window/door. Make sure the sensor cover will be accessible in the final position (in case of battery replacement/re-pairing).
- ress firmly onto surface for 60 seconds each to secure.
- To test the sensor, simply open the window/door. The app will send you a push notification, for example, “Contact sensor has been opened on Front Door”. Close the window/door. The app will send you another notification, for example, “Contact sensor has been closed on Front Door”. The sensor tile will also automatically update its status in the app, as shown on the right.
Note: You can use the Modes feature in the app to configure whether or not to receive “Opened” and “Closed” push notifications when the sensor is in Home, Away or Night mode.
