Installation Notes
Required pre-power sequence (Installation Guide v1.0)
Complete all four steps before applying power:
| Step | Task |
|---|---|
| 1 | Site survey, mount hub, route power and network |
| 2 | Dealer account provisioning (Alarm.com or SecureNet) |
| 3 | Plan PowerG device list, locations, and enrollment order |
| 4 | Verify power source, battery, and grounding readiness |
Post-power commissioning
- Confirm integrated touchpad boots and accepts installer login.
- Enroll PowerG sensors/sirens — placement test at final mount location.
- Press **
[*][2]** after each major step — clear System/Zone/Communication layers before handoff. - Run walk test and central-station communication test on configured service path.
- Document hub SKU, cellular/IP path, and PowerG device IDs for service.
Technician reminders
- Never skip pre-power steps — guide treats them as blocking prerequisites.
- Cloud/account provisioning failures mimic "communicator trouble" — fix account first.
- Complete final walk and communication testing prior to customer handoff.
