Note** 

If there are Units in your home, that you do not see in this 

Network scan, try to unplug all devices, and plug them back in (Only do 
this with the Units that you do not view in the network screen, you don’t 
have to do this with all units.  If the problem persists, try to move the unit 
closer to this current unit (adjacent plugs on the same wall socket is most 
preferable).  If the problem still persists and that unit is still not shown on 
the network, then the unit might be defective please contact technical 
support (

Appendix G

).  Otherwise if you view the unit working, distance 

might be the only issue.
