FAQs

What is the range of the wireless sensors?

The wireless range typically extends up to 100 meters (330 feet) in open space, but this can be affected by building materials and interference.

Does the system require a Wi-Fi connection?

Yes, the Cube hub requires a stable Wi-Fi connection to communicate with the Hestia App and send notifications to your smartphone.

How long do the sensor batteries last?

Battery life varies by sensor type and usage, but many sensors offer an operational life of up to 2 years with a single replaceable battery.

Can I use this system to monitor my main house?

While expandable, the HS-02-SCU kit is primarily optimized for garages and outbuildings. For comprehensive whole-home security, you may need to add more sensors or consider a different hub with more advanced features.

What happens if the power goes out?

The Cube hub has a built-in backup battery that will keep the system operational for a period during a power outage, and it will continue to send alerts if triggered.

Is professional installation required?

No, the Hestia system is designed for easy DIY installation. All necessary components and app guidance are provided.

Can I arm and disarm the system remotely?

Yes, you can arm and disarm the system remotely using the Hestia App on your smartphone or via compatible voice assistants.

Troubleshooting

Cube Hub not connecting to Wi-Fi

Ensure your Wi-Fi network is 2.4GHz (5GHz may not be supported). Check your Wi-Fi password, router placement, and try restarting both the hub and your router.

Sensors not triggering alerts

Verify that the sensors are within range of the Cube hub. Check the battery level of the sensor in the Hestia App and replace if necessary. Ensure the sensor is correctly paired and activated within the app.

False alarms from vibration sensor

Adjust the mounting position of the vibration sensor to avoid vibrations from external sources (e.g., heavy traffic, adjacent machinery). Some sensors may have sensitivity adjustments within the app.

App not receiving notifications

Check your smartphone's notification settings for the Hestia App to ensure they are enabled. Ensure the app has internet connectivity and that the Cube hub is online.
