help you chose a correct antenna.

I scanned the QR on my new Power Switch and it isn't online yet. What do I do?
- SwitcheOn’s included year of service begins the first time the
device is scanned. On first scan, we activate the built-in SIM and
provision the service. - This usually happens in seconds, but can occasionally take up to 15 minutes.
- If after waiting 15 minutes, the device has not provisioned, please
un-plug and re-plug the box. This will force it to immediately try
connecting again. - After the initial activation, SwitcheOn should connect within 1 minute after being powered up.
Why is my box turning off at night?
- SwitcheOn depends upon your local Telus, Bell and Rodgers cellular networks.
- Cellular signals travel differently at night and in different temperatures and humidity levels.
- If your box operates correctly during the day and not at night, a larger antenna might be necessary.
- Contact us for advice on choosing a proper antenna. There are plenty of inexpensive options available and we’re here to help.
What is the maximum load?
- To avoid damage, do not exceed the maximum load (15A). If this value
is exceeded, the SwitcheOn will be damaged and no longer function. - Before using the SwitcheOn with multiple devices, ensure that the
electrical circuit into which the unit is plugged has sufficient
capacity to handle the electric circuit load of the multiple devices.
