BATTERY INSTALLATION
1Using the tab at the bottom, lift off the sensor cover.
2Insert the supplied two AAA batteries into the battery compartment according to the polarity
markings (+ and -) shown. Pairing mode will automatically activate on the sensor for 3 minutes
when batteries are inserted. The sensor status light will blink blue slowly during pairing mode.
If you have downloaded the Swann Security app on your mobile device (see page 4), you can
proceed to the pairing process (see page 5).
Note: Pairing mode on the sensor can be activated at any time by re-inserting the batteries.
3After you have paired the sensor, snap the cover back in place.
4Should you need to replace the batteries in the future, there is no need to re-pair the sensor.
Simply wait for pairing mode to timeout (3 minutes), after which the sensor will automatically
reconnect to the previously congured Wi-Fi network.

Open the Swann Security app and tap the Pair Device button on the screen. If you have already paired
a device, tap the menu icon in the top left and select “Pair Device”.The app will now guide you
through the pairing process and set up the sensor.
Before you begin, have the sensor with you and be close to your router. Please note that the sensor
can connect to a 2.4GHz Wi-Fi network only.
SET UP THE SENSOR

EN
• Place the sensor around your home as required using the included double-sided tape. Also includ-
ed is an optional adjustable mount to allow for exible positioning around tight spaces.
• Make sure the sensor location has strong, reliable Wi-Fi reception available so you can get timely
alerts. As a general rule, the nearer your sensor is to your Wi-Fi router, the better the wireless con-
nection quality. You can expand the Wi-Fi coverage of your current network by installing a Wi-Fi
range extender.
• To prevent false detection, avoid aiming the sensor at heat sources (replaces, air conditioners,
hot air vents, etc), at windows where sunlight can be reected or placing it in direct sunlight. Also,
do not install the sensor on surfaces that can move or vibrate.
• For best results, the sensor should ideally be installed pointing downwards at an angle where
movement is across the detection area of the sensor. Motion detection is less effective when
movement is directly towards or away from the front of the sensor.
• For reliable bonding, clean the mounting surface with an alcohol/cleaning wipe, and let dry. Do not
use on rough surfaces. When mounting the sensor/adjustable mount, press rmly to the surface
for 60 seconds to ensure proper adhesion.
• To test the sensor, walk across the detection area. The app will send you
a push notication, for example, “Motion Detected on Hallway”, when
the sensor detects motion. The sensor tile will also automatically update
its status in the app, as shown on the right. To conserve battery power,
the sensor will enter sleep mode for 3 minutes each time after it detects
motion. During this period, the sensor will not detect any motion activity.
Note: You can use the Modes feature in the app to congure whether or not to receive “Motion
Alert” push notications when the sensor is in Home, Away or Night mode.
