After programming, the connected Gateway will automatically

The RF LED indicator provides feedback to easily check that the
TR4 is within range of the property’s Gateway (either directly, or
through Repeaters)
Tap the Test Connect button

transmitting
The RF LED will then blink 2x green if a response is
received from the Gateway
9.5 – Wireless Troubleshooting
If the RF LED does not blink green after tapping the Test Connect
button, then the TR4 is not receiving a response from the
Gateway. The following steps can help identify the issue:
If the TR4 does not blink green, even when close to the
Gateway, make sure it has been programmed to the
property and the Gateway is online
Try multiple timesif eventually a response is received,
then an additional Repeater may be needed to improve
the wireless network
Move the TR4 closer to the Gateway or nearest
Repeater. If a response is received, then an additional
Repeater may be needed
