Pairing Your Devices

Each Grid Connect product contains a smart module within the circuitry that enables that product to pair with the Grid Connect app through your home router. Once paired, your smart products can be monitored and controlled from anywhere, provided you have either Wi-Fi or mobile data enabled on your iOS or Android device.

To pair your product with the app, make sure you have downloaded and installed the Grid Connect app from the Play store [Android] or App store [iOS]. You will need to create a new account, or login using an existing account. Make sure you have the Wi-Fi network name and password available for the network that you’d like your Grid Connect product to pair with, and that the smart phone you are using to pair the product is connected to this network. After the pairing process is complete, you won’t need to be on this network to control your Grid Connect products.

Note: the below instructions are for general reference only. For device specific instructions go to our downloads page or contact our customer service team. 

Ensure the Grid Connect device you would like to pair is powered. Using your smart phone or tablet, tap the  ‘plus (+)’  button on the bottom right hand side of the app dashboard.
