What do the smartHUB
lights mean?

The smartHUB features integrated
status lights - similar to your
network router, these lights help
you determine the status of the
smartHUB:

TROUBLESHOOTING

smartHUB is not recognized when

adding to My AcuRite account

Possible Solutions:

• Allow up to ten minutes for the smartHUB
device ID to be activated with
www.MyAcuRite.com.

• Make sure you entered the Device ID
correctly. Verify the 12-digit Device ID located
on the bottom side of the smartHUB and
re-enter on My AcuRite.

• Verify the smartHUB has a network (Internet)
connection. If the Network Status Light flashes
rapidly in 30 second intervals, this indicates
there is no Internet connection.

smartHUB Sensor Status Light is

continuously flashing rapidly

When the Sensor Status Light is continuously
flashing rapidly, the smartHUB has not received
a sensor reading for more than 60 seconds.

Possible Solutions:

• Make sure the sensor is in wireless range - all
sensors should be no more than 330 feet
(100 meters) from the smartHUB.

• Make sure the sensor batteries are installed
correctly. Batteries may need to be replaced.

• Make sure the smartHUB is located at least
3 feet away from "noisy" electronic devices,
including TVs and microwaves. Avoid locations
that are near large stone or concrete surfaces
and metallic surfaces.

smartHUB has no network

(Internet) connection

When the Network Status Light flashes rapidly
in 30 second intervals, the smartHUB cannot
establish a network (Internet) connection:

Possible Solutions:

• Make sure the Ethernet cable is firmly
connected. The cable may be defective
and need to be replaced.

• Make sure DHCP is enabled on your router.
Most routers have DHCP enabled by default.

• Check your network router settings. If MAC
address filtering security has been enabled,
your router may be ignoring the outbound
communication from the smartHUB. Consult
your network router’s instruction manual or
contact the manufacturer for more
information. NOTE: The smartHUB Device ID
is its MAC address.

• The Ethernet port on your router may be
malfunctioning. Try connecting the cable to
a different port.
