Troubleshooting Gateway Connection for Efficient Digital Door Lock Operation

Ensuring that your gateways are properly connected and operational is crucial for maintaining the efficiency of your digital door locks, particularly in environments where multiple users need to send unlock and lock signals. If you're experiencing issues with your Zezamii gateway connections, follow this guide to diagnose and resolve common problems.

Step 1: Verify Gateway Indicator Light

For G3 Gateway:

Blue Flashing Light: Indicates that the gateway is functioning correctly and is in communication mode.
Orange Flashing Light: Suggests there is an issue with the connection.
No Light/Grey: Implies that there is no power being supplied to the gateway.

For G3P Gateway:

G3P gateways function similarly, but they require only an Ethernet connection for power and data.

Step 2: Check Power Sources

For G3 Gateway:

Ensure the gateway is connected to both an Ethernet cable for network connectivity and a USB-C cable for power.

For G3P Gateway:

Confirm that the gateway is connected to an Ethernet cable that is capable of delivering Power over Ethernet (PoE).

Step 3: Confirm Gateway Connection in Zezamii Control App

• Open the Zezamii Control App on your mobile device.
• Navigate to the 'Gateways' section within the app (Click Me Section then "+ Devices").
• Check that all gateways in the surrounding area are listed as connected and online.
• The app should display how many locks each gateway is connected to.

Step 4: Compare Physical Gateways with Zezamii Control Listings

Ensure that the number of physical gateways matches the number listed in the Zezamii Control App.
If there are fewer gateways listed in the app than are physically present, you will need to add the missing gateways to the app.

Step 5: Add a Missing Gateway to Zezamii Control

• In the Zezamii Control App, go to the 'Add Gateway' section.
• Physically power on the missing gateway.
• Wait for the gateway to appear in the app. This may take a few moments as the app scans for devices.
• Once the gateway appears, tap on it to add it to your network.
• Assign a desired name to the gateway for easy identification.

Tips for Ensuring Continuous Operation

• Regularly check the indicator lights on your gateways to monitor their status.
• Maintain a log of when and where gateways are installed to simplify troubleshooting.
• Schedule routine maintenance checks to ensure all gateways are powered correctly and functioning as expected.
• Keep the Zezamii Control App updated to the latest version for optimal performance and security.
