Troubleshooting Common Issues

Problem Solution
Gateway not found during pairing. Ensure the gateway's indicator light is flashing red and blue alternately. If it's solid blue, unplug the power and plug it back in to reset it for pairing.
Remote unlock not working. Verify the G2 Gateway is online (solid blue light). In the TT Lock App, go to the lock's settings and ensure "Remote Unlock" is enabled. Check the distance between the gateway and the smart lock (recommended within 16ft/5 meters).
Wi-Fi connection failure. Confirm your Wi-Fi network is 2.4GHz. Double-check the Wi-Fi password entered in the app. Ensure your smartphone is connected to the same 2.4GHz Wi-Fi network during setup.
"The Lock is not connected to any Gateway" message. This indicates the smart lock is not linked to the gateway. Ensure the gateway is online and within range of the lock. In the TT Lock App, navigate to the gateway settings and check "Nearby Locks" to confirm your lock is listed and connected.
