Written by QA

Before you start:

  • Download the Portal App

  • Log in to your account

  • Enable Bluetooth on your phone

  • Make you create the rooms via the Portal App or Dashboard before this setup

Step 1 - Install the Portal Adaptor

Together with the smart disc, you will receive an Adaptor (wireless module) which will allow the Smartdisc to communicate with your current locks.

The first step is to open your current lock and replace the wireless module.

The black and red cables connect to the power, and the others connect to the motor.

Step 2 - Connect the Wireless Module to the Room

  • Open the Portal App;

  • Navigate to the Menu> click "Add device"> select "Module">select the room;

  • Press and hold the reset button for 5 seconds to turn on the blue light.

  • Select the wireless module from the list.

  • Wait a few seconds, and it will prompt you to the next step.

Step 3 - Pairing the SmartDisc Keypad to the Wireless Module

  • Using a paperclip, press the initialize button on the back of the disc. Once it beeps, it's ready to be paired.

  • Open the room on the Portal App.

  • Select the 3-dot menu on the top right.

  • Choose Smartdisc, and if the disc is in pairing mode, it will be found.

  • Hit connect & allow to finish pairing;

  • Your SmartDisc is now connected to your lock.

Step 4 - Install SmartDisc

  1. Attach the backplate to the desired place.

  2. Add the SmartDisc frame on top of the backplate.

  3. Place the Smartdisc on the frame, and they should click together.

Tip:

The SmartDisc can be mounted on doors or next to doors. This is handy if you have fire-rated doors & can not penetrate the door with any screws.

5. Battery Information

In the PortalApp, you'll see the battery icon, which indicates the door lock's battery level.

Note: Most locks use AA batteries, so if the green icon indicates a low battery, it likely means the AA batteries in that lock need to be replaced.
