  • Check the signal strength of a Bluetooth LE sub-device.
• Expected result
  • The app shows the current signal strength, which can be excellent, good, average, poor, very poor, and unable to obtain.
  • If the signal strength is good, average, poor, or very poor, the app prompts that the communication quality between the device and the gateway is not ideal. To optimize signal quality, try moving the device or removing any obstacles between them.
  • If the signal strength cannot be obtained, the app prompts that the low-power device should be woken up in advance. Otherwise, the signal data can be inaccurate.

Upstream network

Wi-Fi

Test case 1: Switch to the Wi-Fi network currently connected to the mobile phone.

• Prerequisites
  • The gateway has been paired.
  • The app supports network switching.
  • The firmware supports network switching.
• Steps
  • The gateway has been paired using an app that supports Wi-Fi switching. Connect your mobile phone to a different Wi-Fi network than the one connected to the gateway. Then, open the device network page.
  • On the app, tap Set Network > Device Network > Current Mobile Network and then switch to another Wi-Fi network.
• Expected result
  • You can switch to the Wi-Fi network currently connected to the mobile phone simply by entering the password.
  • After successful switching, the Wi-Fi EZ information is updated. The gateway is connected to the new Wi-Fi network after a restart. During the switching process, there are no anomalies with the gateway.

Test case 2: Add a different SSID.

• Prerequisites
  • The gateway has been paired.
  • The app supports adding alternative networks.
  • The firmware supports adding alternative networks.
• Steps
  • The gateway has been paired using an app that supports adding alternative networks. Open the device network page.
  • On the app, tap Set Network > Device Network and then add a different AP.
• Expected result
  • The alternative network is added, with the information updated accordingly. The gateway stores the alternative network. There are no anomalies with the gateway during the process.

Test case 3: Report Wi-Fi signal strength.

• Prerequisites
  • The gateway has been paired.
  • The gateway supports Wi-Fi and uses Wi-Fi for upstream communication.
• Steps
  • Open the app, tap Device Details > Device Information > Signal Strength, and check the device’s Wi-Fi signal strength.
• Expected result
  • The device reports the Wi-Fi signal strength properly, and the app correctly displays it.
