8. Replacing Batteries
The Aeon Labs D/W Sensor has built in battery level detection.
It will automatically report it’s battery level (Z-Wave Battery
Command Class) to the associated gateway throughout it’s life
until the battery is fully drained and needs replacing. The
battery status will often be displayed in the user interface of the
gateway.
When used properly in an optimized Z-Wave network, the CR2
battery can last up to 2 years with regular usage.
8.1 Unhook the sensor from the bidirectional mounting plate by
depressing the latch button (on the side) and pulling the sensor
body outward to separate the sensor from its bidirectional
mount.
8.2 Insert the CR2 with the negative end first depressing the
battery spring.
