Connectivity Troubleshooting

1. With your cellphone check that Wi-Fi signal is
available next to the unit. Ensure that your Wi-Fi
network meets these specifications:
• Supported Networks - Wi-Fi 2.4GHz (802.11 b/g/n).
• Password encryptions - WEP, WPA, WPA2.
• Wi-Fi signal icon of 2 bars (-60dB) or better at heater
location.

2. Use the built-in Wi-Fi network options in your
cellphone or use a Wi-Fi network scanner app like
Fing Network Scanner for iPhone or Wi-Fi Analyzer
for Android smart phones, to check signal strength.
If you are having troubles connecting your Heater to
the Raymote app, try these common solutions:
• Check that Wi-Fi signal name and password are
correct.
• In case of a change, proceed to Reset Wi-Fi credential
from Heater Touchscreen and reconnect the heater
with Raymote app.

enough to reach the heater.

heater.
• Add a Wi-Fi range extender to cover heater zone or
enable a new Wi-Fi access point.
