CONNECTING THE FIT TO Z CONTROL
®
By connecting the Fit to the Z Control
®
Cloud using the built-in WiFi, the user can set up free alert messages via email, text, and mobile app “push” notifications.
In addition, the user can verify the Fit’s readiness, remotely silence alarms and reset the unit, configure settings, and modify how notifications are sent. Other
visual information such as input status and battery level are available through the web and app interfaces.
Before you begin:
•
Know what your WiFi router is named (i.e. its SSID) and its password. Double check you know the correct password and exactly how it is spelled,
including capitalization. This will prevent the most common troubleshooting issues.
•
Verify your WiFi router is connected to the internet.
•
Verify your phone, tablet, or computer has working WiFi, can connect to your WiFi router, and that you can be close to the Fit during the installation
process.
•
Create a free account at zcontrolcloud.com.
•
Locate the Fit’s Device ID on the top sticker.
Connection Steps:
1.
Apply AC Power to the Fit. The Z Control
®
LED will blink and then turn off, indicating the Fit is in AP Mode* and is transmitting an SSID (see Figure
B). If the LED is blinking and not in AP mode, press the Z Control button for 12 seconds and let go. The LED will now be off, indicating the Fit is in AP
Mode. A pen or toothpick or similar is required to press the Z Contol button.
This LED should be off when
Fit is in AP mode.
When user is connected to Fit
to set up WiFi, LED will blink.
When Fit is connected to router
and Z Control
®
Cloud, this LED
will be solid.
*AP Mode
is when the Fit is broadcasting its “name”, or SSID. The SSID is in the format ZCTL_Fit_xxxx where “xxxx” is the first 4 digits of
your Fit’s Device ID. The Fit’s SSID will show up in your phone/tablet/computer’s list of available WiFi, and selecting it will give you direct
connectivity to the Fit. This is required in order to give your Fit the password credentials needed to connect to the WiFi of your choice.
