Installing the Hub
From Alertme
The Hub is the first part of your Kit to
be installed. It's in the box mark ed "1".
You'll find the hub power supply
underneath the Hub itself in that box,
along with an Ethernet cable.
Positioning the Hub
Your hub is the heart of the AlertMe
system in your home. As well as
communicating with the internet and
your mobile phone via your broadband
gateway, it manages the AlertMe radio
network in your home, and k eeps you
informed of events and status by
playing audio messages. It also lights up
white to tell you that all is well (if you
want it to!). You should bear these
various functions in mind when
choosing a location for your hub.
As well as being placed so that your
AlertMe hub can connect to your
broadband gateway and a mains power
socket, your hub should ideally be
placed somewhere central in your home,
such as a hallway or living room. This
will give you the best radio coverage in
your home, and also means you will be
able to hear any important audio
messages played by the hub. At the
same time, it is a good idea not to put
your hub and broadband gateway right
