Thread and Apple Home Hub Setting
Controlling this HomeKit-enabled accessory automatically and away from home requires a HomePod, HomePod mini, or Apple TV set up as a home hub. It is recommended that you update to the latest software and operating system. To build an Apple Thread network, a Thread enabled Apple Home hub device is required to be the CONNECTED hub (seen in the Home app) in the Apple Home system. If you have multiple hubs, please turn off the Non-Thread hubs temporarily, then one Thread hub will automatically be assigned as the CONNECTED hub. You may find the instruction here: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT207057

FAQ
- Why does the response time slow down to 4-8 seconds? The connection with the hub might have been switched to bluetooth. A reboot of the home hub and device will restore the Thread connection.
- Why did I fail to set up my Onvis Security Sensor CS2 to Onvis Home app?
- Make sure Bluetooth is enabled in your iOS device.
- Make sure your CS2 is within connecting range of your iOS device.
- Before setting up, reset the device by long pressing the button for about 10 seconds.
- Scan the setup code on the device, instruction manual or inner packaging.
- If the app prompts “couldn’t add the device” after scanning the setup code:
a. remove this CS2 that was added before and close the app;
b. restore the accessory to factory settings;
c. add the accessory again;
d. update the device firmware to the latest version.
- No Response
- Please check the battery level. Make sure the battery level is not lower than 5%.
- A Thread connection from a Thread border router is preferred for CS2. Connection radio can be checked in the Onvis Home app.
- If the connection of CS2 with the Thread network is too weak, try putting a Thread router device to improve Thread connection.
- If CS2 is under Bluetooth 5.0 connection, the range is limited to BLE range only and response is slower. So if BLE connection is poor, please consider setting up a Thread network.
- Firmware Update
- A red dot on the CS2 icon in the Onvis Home app means a newer firmware is available.
- Tap the CS2 icon to enter main page, and then tap the upper right to enter details.
- Follow the app prompting to complete firmware update. Do not quit the app during firmware update. Wait about 20 seconds for CS2 to reboot and reconnect.
