Installation Tool

1

Prepare the Nexia Bridge for Enrollment. Choose and follow the easiest option for you shown below.

Battery powered Bridge:

• Disconnect Ethernet and power to the Bridge.

• Install a new, high-quality 9-volt battery into the Bridge.

• Move the Bridge to within 6 feet (1.8 meters) of the Sensor. Keep the Bridge in this position during the entire enrollment process.

AC powered Bridge:

• Move the Sensor to the Nexia Bridge for enrollment.

• Keep the Sensor within 6 feet (1.8 meters) of the Nexia Bridge during the entire enrollment process.

For more information, refer to the Nexia Bridge User Guide.

DO NOT plug in Ethernet or power before enrolling!

Activate and Enroll the Sensor

a. Press and release the “+” button on the Bridge. The orange LED

will blink slowly to indicate enrollment mode. The Bridge will
remain in enrollment mode for 30 seconds before timeout.

b. Remove the Sensor’s plastic pull tab to activate battery power

and start the Sensor’s enrollment mode. The Sensor’s LED will
blink.

! If the plastic tab is already removed, then remove the
battery for ten (10) seconds and replace the battery (shown,
right) to restart enrollment mode.

c. The orange LED on the Bridge will blink rapidly when enrollment

begins. The Bridge and Sensor LEDs will light solid to indicate
successful enrollment.

! If the Bridge LED never blinks rapidly and enrollment mode
times out (after 30 seconds), then repeat steps a-c.
