Basic Troubleshooting
With any wireless system, variables in home construction and environment can impact
communications quality. If your system is not working as expected, please start with
the following troubleshooting tips.
• If you have any other wireless transmitters, such as a baby monitor, temporarily
disable the transmitter and re-test Nexia operation.
• In the Nexia web portal, go to Edit Home, Advanced. Press Test Connection for
the VeriLock Translator. Communications quality should be at least 70%. If not, try
locating your VeriLock Translator closer to the Nexia bridge. Optimal performance is
usually achieved when the translator is within 30 feet of your Nexia bridge. Additional
Z-Wave repeaters can be used to improve Z-Wave communications quality.
• Use the VeriLock Translator diagnostics mode to conrm sensor communications
are recognized by the translator. Honeywell 5800 series repeaters can be used to
improve sensor to translator communication.
• Ensure VeriLock sensor battery pull strips have been removed.
• Ensure VeriLock sensor batteries are fresh.
