INSTALLING BATTERIES

recycle all old batteries.
When you are finished adding the sensor to your account, the next step is to insert the

Wireless H

S Sensors are powered by AA batteries.
The standard version of this sensor is powered by two
replaceable 1.5 V AA sized batteries (included with
purchase). The typical battery life is 10 -12 years.
This sensor is also available with a line power option. The
line powered version of this sensor has a barrel power
connector allowing it to be powered by a standard 3.0–3.6
V power supply. The line powered version also uses two
standard 1.5 V AA batteries as backup for uninterrupted
operation in the event of line power outage.
Power options must be selected at time of purchase, as the
internal hardware of the sensor must be changed to support
the selected power requirements.
Place batteries in the device by first taking the sensor and sliding the battery door
open. Insert fresh AA batteries in the carriage, then shut the battery door.
Complete the process by opening up iMonnit and selecting
Sensors
from the main
navigation menu. Verify that iMonnit is showing the sensor has a full battery level.
