Installing a Gateway

  1. Identify the location where the Gateway will be installed. The ideal location is hidden from view in close proximity to the z-wave devices.
  2. Test the signal by plugging the gateway into an electrical socket and holding the gateway where it will be approximately installed. Remove the front plate of the gateway, here you will be able to see if the system is working correctly from the lights on the circuit board. The things to look for are:
    1. If the red/orange light is on – then the gateway is receiving power from the electrical outlet.
    2. If the green light is on or blinking – then the system software is running.
