LOW-VOLTAGE IQ WiFi 6 MOUNT
If mounting to the wall please use
drywall anchor screws OR the
provided sticky tape on the
mounting bracket. Verify that the
mount provided is oriented with the
space in the tab UP.
Note: The Low-Voltage IQ WiFi Mount is designed to mount onto a low-voltage single gauge back-box or to be mounted with drywall anchors.
DO NOT
MOUNT ON A HIGH VOLTAGE BOX OR CEILING MOUNT. If paring with a low-voltage box use two size 6 standard screws (M3.5) that are 1 inch
(2.54 cm) in length.
When installing mount to router,
note the orientation and verify
that the router slides down onto
the mount often providing a ‘click’
onto the mounting tabs.
Wires can be neatly wound on the
mounting bracket to keep the
installation neat. JOHNSON CONTROLS CONFIDENTIAL AND PROPRIETARY

EXAMPLE As the only wireless network on the premises:
CHOOSE YOUR INSTALLATION TYPE
In parallel with an existing wireless network:
You can set up the IQ WiFi 6 in either of these ways:
Great for:

-Improving connectivity for ALL Wi-Fi devices on the network

-Offering support for the entire network
Great for:

-Keeping the security and smart-home devices private/hidden from
the rest of the Wi-Fi connected devices on the network

-Making online/remote support easier as only known/authorized
devices should be connected

-Ensuring better connectivity for dealer supported devices

If a single IQ WiFi 6 does does not cover the location as desired, you can
add up to seven (7) additional nodes to eliminate dead spots and boost
overall network performance.*

*IQ WiFi 6 will not increase the speed coming from the customer’s ISP (Internet
Service Provider) but can ensure the customer is getting the best coverage
throughout their location. Please note that not all buildings are the same, and
building materials, wireless interface, and other factors can limit Wi-Fi range. INSTALLING

THE IQ WiFi 6 1.
Connect one end of the provided ethernet
cable into the “ETHERNET” port on the
modem*.
CONNECTING THE WIRES

2.
Connect the provided ethernet cable into the
“WAN” port.

3.
Plug the barrel jack end of the power supply
into the “DC-IN” port. Do not plug in the
power supply into outlet until step 3.
4.
Plug the power supply into the wall
outlet. Router takes up to 8
minutes to power up and identify
as a controller, the power LED will
stop flashing when ready.
*Please note: Plugging the ethernet cable into a WAN port on IQWIFI 6 will configure it to become the Controller when it powers up for the first time. IQWIFI6 has automatic
updates enabled by default. The Controller update can take a significant amount of time and may catch an installer off guard if an update is not anticipated. It is recommended
while waiting for the Controller to update, to proceed to adding Agents (see page 13) if additional Agents are needed for better WiFi coverage. The router takes about 6 minutes to
power up and identify as a Controller, The LED will stop flashing GREEN when ready. IQWIFI6 boot up as Agents and will only take about 4 minutes to power up. If a software
update is needed the router will automatically download and install it. This may take an additional 2 minutes.

Plug the barrel jack end of the power supply into
the DC-IN and plug the power supply into the wall

Power LED will stop flashing when ready.

Example of where controllers and agents may
be placed for best performance and for adding
an Agent with the WPS button.
Choose your location to maximize your mesh
WI-FI network. Ensure desired location has an
available power outlet.
Once the Agent is powered the LEDs are solid
GREEN. Activate WPS on the controller by pressing
and holding the WPS button for about 1 second then
press the WPS button on the Agent for about 1
second. The pairing process can take up to 7
minutes to

subsequent Agents when the Controller WAN LED
goes solid GREEN.

Please note: Ethernet backhaul is supported when you plug an ethernet cable between LAN to LAN. A switch may be needed for more than two IQ WiFi 6’s. IQ

Agents can be added to a Controller via ethernet connection without any button press or manual configuration. All that is needed is to
use the suppled ethernet cable and connect the LAN to LAN ports between Controller and Agent(s), find a nearby outlet and power the
Agent. It's recommended to start un-boxing each Agent while waiting for the connected Agent to finish configuration and update.
1.
With a Controller already powered and connected, add an Agent to a Controller by using
the provided ethernet cable. Plug each end of the ethernet cable into the LAN port of
both the Controller and the Agent creating a LAN-to-LAN connection.
*Please note: When configuration of an Agent is complete the WAN, LAN, and Power status LEDs will be solid GREEN. This process can take as long as 7 MINUTES to complete.
Once configuration is complete, you can unplug power, and the physical ethernet between the LAN connection and place in a wireless location. If within wireless range, the Agents
will reconnect using the wireless backhaul. See the LED WAN status on page 7 for LED placement feedback.

Wired Connection:

-
Connect your laptop to the IQ WiFi 6 via the LAN port on the back of the controller
or agent LAN port.

-
Open up a web browser (chrome recommended) and type in the following:

-
\\192.168.105.1 (default gateway address)

Wireless Connection:

Connect all WiFi client devices to the Main or Guest network first. IQ Panels will
automatically move themselves to the Security network by default.

-
The default SSID is “IQ_WiFi_XXXXXX”. (XXXXXX is the last 6 digits of the MAC
address of the IQ WiFi 6)

-
Using the QR code sticker you can auto connect to the default Network Name (SSID)

-
WPS mode is also supported for wireless connection.

Default User Name:

-
admin

Default Password:

-
Default password is case sensitive and located on the bottom of IQ WiFi 6 titled ‘PW’.
CONNECTING TO THE NETWORK
EXAMPLE
*Please note: Devices connected via the customer SSID (2.4 & 5 GHz) the Security 2.4 GHz and Security 5 GHz and the ethernet LAN port will be all on the same VLAN or Partition.
Guest SSID (2.4 & 5 GHz) will be on a separate VLAN.
By default, IQ WiFi 6 broadcasts 3 dis
A
nct network names or SSID’s. (1) The Main network, (2) a Guest
network and (3) a Security network. The purpose of the Security network is to isolate security devices
like Panels, Secondary Keypads and Cameras from the Main and Guest network. This helps reduce the
chance that these devices will disconnect, causing a truck roll in the future, due to a homeowner
pausing the internet, changing the network name, password or encryp
A
on type.

Start by connec
A
ng all Wi-Fi devices installed in the home or business to the Main or Guest network
fi
rst. Once connected, IQ Panels and Secondary Keypads will automa
A
cally move themselves to the
Security network by default. Alarm.com Cameras and Doorbells can be manually moved to the
Security network from Mobile Tech, the Partner Portal or the End User website. Addi
A
onally, both

needed. MANAGING IQ

When you restart your network, follow this sequence:
1. Turn off
and
unplug the modem.


2. Turn off the IQ WiFi 6.


3. Plug in the modem and turn it on. Wait two minutes.
4. Turn on the IQ WiFi 6 and wait for the power LED to stop

SEQUENCE TO RESTART YOUR NETWORK If you are experiencing dif
fi
culty syncing the controller and the agent, we recommend that you move the agent into the same room as the controller
during the sync. Then move the agent to a different location.
To sync the controller and the agent:
1.
Place the agent in the same room as the IQ WiFi 6. Use this agent location only during the sync process.


2.
Connect the agent to a power source.


3.
Wait for the agent power LED to light solid GREEN.


4.
Press the WPS button on the controller and then within two minutes, press the WPS button on the agent.


5.
Wait for the agent internet LED to light solid GREEN. The agent WiFi LED will slowly blink GREEN when communicating.


6.
Move the agent to a new location and connect the agent to a power source.


7.
At the new location, check the agent power LED and make sure it is solid GREEN.


If agent is not preforming well, check the WAN LED to verify that it is not
fl
ashing for 30 seconds. This will indicate that the signal is strong. If
fl
ashing brie
fl
y once every 30 seconds, the signal is good but not ideal. If it
fl
ashes twice every 30 seconds it is just ok. If it is off, there is no
