How to improve your Wi-Fi signal

The Wi-Fi signal in a garage can be diminished because of the structure in the walls. If you have a weak signal in your garage, try the following:

  • Make sure the router is within 50 ft. of the hub.
  • Move the router closer to your garage to minimize interference from walls and other objects.
  • Use a Wi-Fi extender, see a list of tested Wi-Fi extenders

Test the door sensor battery every 6 months or if the Smart Garage Control is not working as expected.

  1. Press and release the test button on the door sensor. The red LED on the door sensor should blink and the hub should beep.
  2. Wait 5-10 seconds, then repeat this test 5 more times (wait 5-10 seconds between each test).
  3. If the LED doesn’t blink or the hub doesn’t beep with each press, try the following:
  • Make sure you remove the pull tab from the door sensor.
  • Debris may be present on the battery. Remove the sensor cover and slide the battery out to check.
  • Replace the battery, see Accessories and Parts.

Change the door sensor battery

  1. Pry the latch panel on the bottom of the door sensor with a coin or screwdriver and lift the top to remove it.
  2. Using a soft non-conductive tool (such as a cotton swab), gently push the coin battery out of the clip.
  3. Gently but firmly insert the new battery into the clip and replace the cover.

Dispose of batteries properly. Replace ONLY with 3V CR2450 coin batteries, see Accessories and Parts.
