- The device wifi/signal LED should be flashing green
- On successful pairing the pairing LED should flashing and the the wifi/signal LED should be lit
- Set the battery type (Lithium, Alkaline, Rechargeable) in the device preferences page (click the Gear icon on top right corner of the keypad page in the ST Classic app), after pairing for accurate battery life reporting
Iris v3
- Insert the 4 batteries (use AA Lithium 1.5v batteries for best performance, AA Alkaline batteries or AA Rechargeable NiMH/NiCd batteries).
