2. **Location of the sensors**:
- **Motion detectors**: Place them in the corners of rooms or in corridors. Make sure they are out of reach of pets.
- **Opening sensors**: Install them on doors and windows. They must be aligned correctly in order to function properly.

3. **Siren**: If you choose to install an external siren, place it in a visible and high place to maximize its effectiveness.

## Step 2: Installing the Hub

### 1. Connect the Hub

- Connect the Hub to power using the adapter provided.
- Connect the Hub to your router using an Ethernet cable (optional, as it can also work via Wi-Fi).

### 2. Configure the Hub

- Download the Ajax app from your mobile device's app store.
- Create an account and follow the instructions to add a new Hub. This will involve scanning a QR code on the Hub to link it to your account.

## Step 3: Installing the Sensors

### 1. Motion Sensors

- Use the tape measure to measure the proper height for the sensor; Ideally, it should be between 2 and 2.5 meters.
- Mark the drill points and use the drill to make the holes.
- Put the sensor in place and secure it with screws or adhesive, depending on the model.

### 2. Aperture Sensors

- Place the sensor on the door or window frame and the magnet on the moving part (door or window).
- Make sure both are aligned for the sensor to work properly.
- Use the drill or glue to secure the sensor and magnet.

### 3. Keypad and remote control

- If you choose to install a keyboard, place it near the main entrance, at an accessible height.
- The remotes can be taken with you and do not require installation.

## Step 4: App Setup

Once all the devices are installed, it's time to set them up in the Ajax app.

### 1. Add Devices

- Make sure each device is properly synced with the Hub.

### 2. Customize settings

## Step 5: System Testing

Before you finish the installation, it's crucial to test your system to make sure everything is working properly.

### 1. Sensor Testing

- Open and close doors and windows where you have installed opening sensors.
- Walk in front of the motion detectors to check that they detect your presence.

### 2. Mermaid Test
