SMART-HOME MULTI-FUNCTIONAL DEVICE WITH GUIDED INSTALLATION
First Claim
1. A method for guiding installation of a monitoring device, comprising:
- receiving, by the monitoring device, during installation of the monitoring device at a particular location at a structure, an input command to instantiate operation;
implementing, by the monitoring device in response to receiving the input command to instantiate operation, a test sequence to determine the particular location of the monitoring device prevents the monitoring device from operating within specification; and
outputting, by the monitoring device, based on the test sequence, a notification that the particular location of the monitoring device prevents the monitoring device from operating within specification.

Abstract
Various arrangements for guiding installation of a monitoring device are presented. The monitoring device may receive, during installation of the monitoring device at a particular location at a structure, an input command to instantiate operation. The monitoring device, in response to receiving the input command to instantiate operation, may implement a test sequence to determine the particular location of the monitoring device prevents the monitoring device from operating within specification. The monitoring device may, based on the test sequence, output a notification that the particular location of the monitoring device prevents the monitoring device from operating within specification.

10. A monitoring device, comprising:
-
a housing; a speaker housed by the housing; a microphone housed by the housing; a button housed by the housing; a wireless communication component housed by the housing; one or more processors housed by the housing; and a memory, housed by the housing, communicatively coupled with and readable by the one or more processors and having stored therein processor-readable instructions which, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to; receive during installation of the monitoring device at an instant placement, an input command to instantiate device operation; implement, in response to receiving the input command to instantiate device operation, a test sequence to determine the instant placement of the monitoring device prevents the monitoring device from operating within specification; and output, based on the test sequence, a notification that the instant placement of the monitoring device prevents the monitoring device from operating within specification.

18. A monitoring apparatus, comprising:
-
an audio output means; an audio input means; a user input means; a wireless communication means; a processing means that; receives, during installation of the monitoring apparatus, at an instant placement, an input command to instantiate operation; implements, in response to receiving the input command to instantiate device operation, a test sequence to determine the instant placement of the monitoring apparatus prevents the monitoring device from operating within specification; and outputs, based on the test sequence, a notification that the instant placement of the monitoring device prevents the monitoring device from operating within specification.
