A Lumin Smart Panel (LSP) configured to connect over WiFi will lose connectivity when any of the following occur:

  • A WiFi router is replaced.
  • A WiFi network name (SSID) or password is changed.


This article outlines the process to re-introduce WiFi credentials to a previously-installed LSP. This process can be performed by a system owner, installer, or any other user within range of the home's WiFi network.


1. Ensure that the LSP is in Setup Mode, indicated by blinking blue and green lights on the side of the LSP. 

  • If both lights are not blinking, press and release the button on the LSP labeled either WiFi or Setup. If both lights are still not blinking after this button press, please contact Lumin support.
2. Ensure that your mobile device is connected to the home's WiFi network.
3. Open the Lumin Smart mobile app and login.

4. Select the Menu icon in the upper left corner of the app.

The green light should go solid a few moments after the blue light, indicating that the LSP has connected to Lumin's off-site servers.
