6. Risoluzione Dei Problemi

• Problemi di connessione Wi-Fi:
  Ensure your router broadcasts a 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi signal. The W18 is not compatible with 5 GHz Wi-Fi. Verify your Wi-Fi password is correct and your smartphone is connected to the same 2.4 GHz network during setup.
• GSM SIM Card Not Working:
  Confirm the SIM card is a standard 2G GSM card with active credit. Ensure it is inserted correctly. Some carriers may require specific activation for 2G services.
• Sensori non associati:
  Ensure the sensor battery is installed correctly and has sufficient power. Activate the sensor within range of the main panel during the pairing process. Check the sensor's manual for specific activation steps.
• Falsi allarmi:
  Review zone settings to ensure sensors are assigned to appropriate zone types. For PIR motion detectors, ensure they are not placed in areas with direct sunlight, drafts, or near heat sources that could cause false triggers. Adjust sensitivity if available.
• Unexpected System Behavior:
  If the system exhibits erratic behavior (e.g., arming/disarming unexpectedly), check for conflicting schedules or remote commands. A factory reset may be necessary as a last resort (refer to advanced settings in the app or panel menu).
• No Alert Calls/SMS:
  Verify that alert phone numbers are correctly entered and saved. Ensure the GSM SIM card has sufficient credit and network coverage.
