    Common mistakes

    • • Mounting near HVAC vents — heat swings can cause false low-temp alerts.
    • • Skipping the cellular signal check — cellular is your backup path if Wi-Fi drops.
    • • Using an extension cord instead of a wall outlet.

    Troubleshooting

    • • Blank screen: hold power for 20 seconds to force a reboot.
    • • Wi-Fi won't save: confirm 2.4 GHz SSID (not 5 GHz only) and the correct password.
    • • No cellular bars: relocate the panel one wall closer to an exterior window.
