1. HARDWARE INSTALLATION
BRIDGE INSTALLATION
A. Document or take a picture of the Serial Number and Token Number of
the bridge. The serial number is needed to identify the smart bridge in
the SC Argus Pro system portal.
B. Connect the antenna to the bridge BLE coax connector. The antenna
should point upwards.
C. Install the bridge onto the wall or shelf in the pre-determined location.
i. The location must have an Ethernet cable available or a strong WiFi
signal.
ii. The bridge can be placed above a drop ceiling tile near one of the tile
support bars, set on a shelf
iii. For wall installations, follow the steps below.
Typically bridge may be installed at any location. It is important that the bridges are placed in the pre-assigned locations to properly monitor and man-
age the devices in each room.
Bridges may be powered by connecting to a standard 120V outlet. They can also be powered through the Ethernet cable (PoE) which provides connec-
tivity to the cloud services.
The bridge should be placed as high as possible in the room to obtain the best coverage.
2. WALL MOUNT INSTALLATION
The Smart Bride uses a keyhole slotted bracket for mounting purposes and requires 4 screws. Use a coarse thread type screw with a Phillips “pan”
head #8 screw with a 5/32 (.16”) thread diameter. The length depends on wall material and if plastic anchors are used.
A. Determine the location on the wall for the bridge and the screw holes to mount the bridge.
B. Secure the bridge to the wall with the antenna pointed upwards as shown in the diagram below.
A. When using standard power, Plug the bridge power cord into a nearby 120V outlet, then plug the bridge
power cord into the bridge. Note: If using PoE this step may be skipped.
B. Attach the Cat 6 Ethernet cable into the bridge RJ45 Ethernet port. If using Power over Ethernet (PoE)
the cable will power the bridge.
3. CONNECT POWER SUPPLY
4. BRIDGE POWER UP SEQUENCE
The bridge will go through a power up sequence. The green light will come on and it will go through a sequence of ashes, then stay solid (lit). The
start-up sequence is below:
• Green power LED come on when connected w/Ethernet and USB (will stay on unless power outage).
• SR Network & Internet LED’s come on solid, then the Communication LED (All LED’s are lit up).
• All but the Power LED turn back off.
• The SR, Internet, and Communication LED’s ash together 3 times, then go back off.
• Internet & Communication LED’s light up.
• Internet LED turns off and SR Network LED comes on. Communication LED stays on the entire time.
• Communication LED turns off, followed by the SR Network LED turning off.
• SR Network LED turns on and off twice.
