• No App Notifications: Ensure the alarm panel is connected to a 2.4GHz WiFi network. Check your smartphone's notification settings for the Tuya/Smart Life app. Verify that the app is logged in and the system is linked.
• Sensor Not Triggering: Check the sensor's battery level. Ensure the sensor is within the wireless range of the alarm panel. Verify that the sensor is correctly paired and assigned to an active zone. For door/window sensors, ensure the two parts are aligned correctly and within the specified gap.
• False Alarms: Review sensor placement to avoid areas with drafts, direct sunlight, or pets that might trigger motion sensors. Adjust sensor sensitivity if available. Check for tamper alarms if a sensor has been disturbed.
• GSM/4G Issues: Confirm the SIM card is active and has sufficient credit/data. Check the signal strength displayed on the alarm panel. If issues persist, try restarting the alarm panel.
• Voice Control Not Working: Ensure your alarm system is correctly linked to your Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant account. Verify that your voice assistant device is online and properly configured.
