Quickstart Guide
KIWIVZG Kiwi with Entry Sensor Magnet Kit
ATTENTION
The Sensor is used in conjunction with an existing Skyhawk CE account,
subscription, and an active in-range Hub unit.
Sensors are shipped with a default sensitivity of 7, unless otherwise noted.
Depending upon your application this setting may need to be adjusted.
High sensitivity can lead to false alerts from external environmental factors
such as rain, hail or extraneous vibrations. If false alerts arise, the
vibration sensitivity can be adjusted by using the procedure on page 9.
