OVERVIEW
This manual describes how to install and commission the
Network OWL ready for the addition of other Intuition
products /devices (sold separately). See manuals supplied
with those products / devices for further instructions.
BEFORE YOU START
Please locate and check that you have a spare LAN port
available on the back of your broadband Internet router. You will
need to plug in the supplied Ethernet cable. If all of the ports are in
use, you can add more connections by purchasing an Ethernet Switch / Hub. You will also
need a spare mains socket available close by for the supplied Plug top mains power supply.
STEP ONE - Connect to Internet & Power Network OWL
Ensure antenna is screwed, nger tight, onto brass connector on side of the Network •
OWL.
Plug the Ethernet cable into the base of the Network OWL and a spare LAN port on•
your existing broadband Internet router.
Ensure the connector latches with an audible “click” at both ends.•
Select UK or Euro mains adaptor as required. Fit to the power supply and rotate 90°•
until it latches into place.
Plug the power supply into the mains and insert the DC jack connector into the base•

of the Network OWL.
The green LED on the top of the Network OWL will start ashing. After a few seconds •
the blue LED will start ashing slowly. This is Device Pairing Mode used when set-
ting up other OWL Intuition Products / Devices. For now wait until the blue LED stops
ashing (about 90 seconds).
Check that the green LED is now ashing with a “triple blip” pattern. •
(- - - - - - - - -). This indicates that the Network OWL is online and connected to the
OWL servers.
Do NOT proceed to STEP TWO until this ashing pattern is observed.•

If your Network OWL does not go online (“triple blip”):
The Network OWL can normally connect to the OWL servers when plugged into a•
normal domestic broadband router which has a default security conguration.
If the Network OWL does not connect within 5 minutes:•
Ensure that your Internet connection is working by connecting to a familiar sitea.
using your web browser.
Check Ethernet cable connections - remove cable and ret a few times at both b.
ends to remove any dust on the connections.
Try rebooting your broadband router by powering down for 10 seconds and thenc.
power back up. Allow 5 minutes for everything to re-establish itself.
IMPORTANT Note for business users:
If you wish to use a Network OWL connected to a business / commercial LAN then•
please note that it is usual for the internal IT Security Department to restrict which
Internet ports are open for use.
You will need to ensure that ports numbered 5004 and 5222 are opened outbound.•
Without this the Network OWL will not be able to connect to the OWL servers and
your Intuition system will not function.
Note: The table opposite describes the meanings of the LEDs visible on the front face of
the Network OWL.

The Network OWL should ideally be hung on the wall in a free area as far from large metal
objects as possible. Position the antenna in a vertical orientation.
If necessary you can replace the Ethernet cable with a longer cable (up to 100 meters
long). If installing a long Ethernet cable is a problem, you can use a “Powerline Range
Extender” or “Wireless Range Extender” - please search for these common products online.

Please now follow the instructions provided with the other OWL Intuition Devices (e.g.
Electricity Monitoring or Heating Control products)
