CONNECTING TO THE GATEWAY ///
DISCOVERING NEW DEVICES
In order for the Gateway to control Xanboo devices such as cameras and sensors, each device must be
registered with the Gateway . The iG3 Gateway establishes a “secure wireless network” between itself
and all discovered Xanboo devices. The Gateway can only control devices that it has discovered.
New devices can be discovered at any time:
A. Log into the iG3 using ‘XANASSIST’
B. Click on the ‘DISCOVERY’ menu option
C. Click the ‘START DISCOVERY’ menu item, on the left,
 to begin discovery for your Door/Window Sensor.
D. At this time, using a paper clip, press the
 ‘DISCOVERY’ button on the back of your Door/
 Window Sensor. The light on the device will turn
 green when the Gateway has discovered it properly.
NOTE: After a brief period, the LED will turn off. The LED is only Green when transmitting. The LED is
not 'lit' during sleep mode (waiting for the next time to transmit a signal).

 (ie. your Gateway is connected to the internet).
MOUNTING ///
The Xanboo
™
Door/Window Sensor is constructed of UV resistant ABS plastic allowing for
indoor or sheltered outdoor use. The Sensor works by creating a magnetic field between the Sensor
base and the magnetic contact. When there is a change in status, either opening or closing, the Sensor
will trigger an event to the Gateway. The spacing between the Sensor and the contact should be
between 1/10 inch and .5 inch.
NOTE: The Door/Window Sensor cannot be used on metal doors, metal door frames or metal objects.
1. Peel the paper strip from the double-sided tape located on the back of the Sensor.
 You can also mount the sensor more securely using the screws in the hardware kit.
 Using the drilling template on the back of the instruction guide, drill two small holes for
 the screws. Affix the screws to one side of the object (typically the “stationary” side) leaving
 1/16“ space between the screw head and the object,
2. Mount the Sensor onto the screws and slide down to lock into place
3. The magnetic contact should now be placed on the other side of the object (typically the
 side that moves)
