Detailed Problem 

Description 

 

Solution 

 
 
 
 
 

Not Checking into 
Scigiene Premier 

 
 
 
 

The Local Alert lost the 
radio link to the gateway 
or never connected to 
the gateway. 

Power cycle the Local Alert by turning the switch off for 60 

seconds then toggling it on. 

1. Ensure the network is set up correctly in Scigiene Premier (the 

sensor and gateway are on same network). Press the button on 
the gateway. 

2. If the network is set up correctly, reform the gateway. 
3. Move the Local Alert -10 feet from the gateway. 
4. Move progressively further from the gateway, ensuring at least 

two signal bars are showing. Keep in mind the signal bars 
represent signal from the previous message, not the current 
message. We recommend taking two readings to verify signal 
strength. 

5. Check antenna on the gateway and the Local Alert. 

 

 

Low Signal 

 

Radio signal strength in 
Scigiene Premier is 
lower than expected. 

1. Ensure the gateway/LocalAlert antenna is properly connected. 
2. Ensure the gateway/LocalAlert antenna is optimally oriented 

with respect to the position of the Local Alert. (See Antenna 
Orientation section in the User Guide). 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

 

Notifications Delayed 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

 

Notifications are taking 
longer than expected to 
appear on the Local 
Alert after the notification 
was generated in 
Scigiene Premier. 

1. Check the Heartbeat on the gateway that the Local Alert is 

connected to in Scigiene Premier. The notification must get to 
the gateway before being sent to the Local Alert and messages 
are only sent down to the gateway when the gateway talks into 
Scigiene Premier so a shorter gateway Heartbeat will shorten 
this potential point of delay. 

2. If the Local Alert is on battery power only try reducing the Poll 

rate on the Local Alert. Similar to the gateway, the Local Alert will 
pick up notifications already sent to the gateway when it 
communicates with the gateway, reducing the Poll rate will 
reduce the delay in this process. 

3. If the Local Alert is on line power, the Local Alert's radio is 

always listening for traffic from the gateway. When the gateway 
receives a notification from Scigiene Premier it will transmit the 
notification immediately without first communicating with the 
Local Alert. If the Local Alert hears this message, it will quickly 
pick up the notification. If for some reason the Local Alert does 
not hear this message the message will still be received on 
Local 

Alert’s next Poll or Heartbeat. 

4. Is the Local Alert consistently connected to the gateway? If 

the Local Alert loses connection to the gateway, it will not be 
able to receive notifications until this connection is 
reestablished. Refer to "Not Checking into Scigiene Premier" to 
troubleshoot connection issues.
