3. Slide the Range Finder Test switch to turn the test on and o.
The range finder test automatically turns o in five minutes if you don’t slide

4. Move around with your light to find the best placement location.
The security light LEDs blink as follows:
• Green. The light is within range of your bridge.
• Red. The light is outside the range of your bridge.
Find the best spot for your bridge
After you place your lights, move your bridge as needed to a location that
optimizes the signal between your lights and your bridge.
To optimize your bridge location, do the following:
• Make sure that your bridge is within range of your WiFi router.
• Place your bridge in a location where each light is about the same distance
from the bridge.
• Elevate your bridge by plugging it into an outlet that is located above ground
level, such as above a counter.
• Do not plug the bridge into a power strip that is on the floor.
• Try to minimize the number of walls between your bridge and your lights. Thick
or insulated walls can reduce the range.
WiFi range
Place your bridge in a location that is inside the WiFi range of your router and is
about the same distance from each security light.
It’s important to keep distance in mind for a good WiFi signal:
• Maximum. Place your bridge within range of your WiFi router. The maximum
line-of-sight range is reduced by each wall, ceiling, or other major obstruction
between the light and bridge. The following materials reduce signal strength
the most:
• Unusually thick walls and ceilings
• Brick
• Concrete
• Stone
• Ceramic
