1. A method comprising:
- detecting a plurality of signals received from a plurality of sensor devices;
identifying a respective signal strength of each of the plurality of signals;
receiving, at the mobile device, a first input selecting a first type of the plurality of sensor devices;
displaying, on a mobile device receiving the plurality of signals, a first list of the plurality of sensor devices that have a respective identity type that matches the first type of the plurality of sensor devices selected by the first input alongside a second list of the respective signal strength of each of the plurality of signals received from each of the plurality of sensor devices that have the respective identity type that matches the first type of the plurality of sensor devices selected by the first input;
receiving, at the mobile device, a second input selecting at least one of the plurality of sensor devices from the first list of the plurality of sensor devices; and
transmitting, from the mobile device to a control panel, an identifying signal that identifies the at least one of the plurality of sensor devices selected by the second input to enroll the at least one of the plurality of sensor devices with the control panel device for configuration of the at least one of the plurality of sensor devices by the control panel device.

Abstract
Systems and methods of enrolling sensor devices with a control panel device using a mobile device are provided. Some methods can include detecting signals received from sensor devices, identifying a signal strength of each of the signals, displaying a list of each of the sensor devices and the signal strength of respective signals received from respective ones of the sensor devices, receiving user input to select at least one of the sensor devices, and transmitting an identifying signal to a control panel device to enroll the at least one sensor device with the control panel device for configuration thereof.
