15. Troubleshooting and issues
Whilst the system should work without any problems, we know that sometimes things can go wrong.
My House Issues
From time to time, you may see a new tile appear at the top of the My House page. If there are any problems being reported by the Hub or any of the devices, this new tile will appear and list any outstanding problems.
This tile will identify the most common problems with the system, and help you to fix them; such as a device has a low battery and how to change the battery.
To find out more about any issues that currently exist with your system:
- From the My House page, click on the red Issues tile.

- Here you can see the device number, type and which zone it is in, along with the type of problem.
- To fix the problem, click on the issue you wish to solve to load the troubleshooting wizard which will guide you through the steps to fix the problem
