When adding my smartHUB, I receive an error message - Device must be registered and be reporting data to claim it
This error message occurs when the Device ID entered is not recognized by My AcuRite. To add a device, the two requirements below must be met.
- Device has a network (internet) connection and has connected to My AcuRite.
- During its connection to My AcuRite, it sent a minimum of one (1) sensor reading; be sure that one AcuRite sensor is in range of the device.
This completes the registration requirements, which allows you to add the AcuRite Connection Device your account.
Possible Solutions
