Pairing
The Blue by ADT Smart Home Hub is the controlling hub that your sensors communicate with. To pair
your sensors with the Blue Smart Home Hub, just launch your Blue by ADT app. Once logged in, select
Menu > Devices > (+) Add Device > Sensors > Flood & Temperature Sensor, and follow the in-app setup
help to pair your sensor.
Note: Sensors and devices in a Blue by ADT system are preconfigured so they will be pre-paired to your
system and can be added by simply removing the battery tab, as shown in the following steps.
To enable a new sensor:
1.
Remove the top cover of the sensor by gently prying it off.
2.
Remove the battery isolation tab.
3.
The sensor’s blue LED indicator will blink while it attempts to pair with the smart home hub.
4.
If a network is not found after 90 seconds, the sensor will go into sleep mode. To wake the sensor
again, press and hold the pairing button for 5 seconds and then release the button to restart the
pairing cycle.
5.
Replace the top cover of the device.
Mounting your Blue by ADT Flood & Temperature Sensor
The flood & temperature sensor can be placed on the ground or mounted onto a wall.
Ground
The sensor detects water through the 2 gold probes protruding through the bottom of the unit. Place the
sensor on the ground in the area to be monitored with the probes facing downward.
Wall mounting
For wall mounting, the sensor must use the external extension probe.
1.
Remove the waterproof plug that covers the micro USB connector and insert the sensor probe.
2.
Place the contacts at the end of the extension probe on the surface to be monitored. Both contacts
on the sensor probe will need to be in contact with water for the flood & temperature sensor’s
alarm to sound, so mount it as level as possible.
Note: First, clean the wall area and allow it to dry thoroughly before mounting your sensor with
double-sided tape in the next step.
3.
Double-sided tape is provided to mount the water sensor and extension probe. Press and hold it
for 30 seconds to adhere.
Operation
1.
The sensor’s blue LED is off during normal operation.
2.
When the probes come into contact with water, the sensor will transmit an alarm signal to the
Blue by ADT Smart Home Hub, and signal an alarm with its built-in buzzer. The sensor’s blue
LED will continue to flash until the device is removed from the water.
3.
Whenever the water level subsides, the water sensor’s fault will clear, and the device will return
to its normal operation mode.
Factory resetting your Blue Flood & Temperature Sensor
To factory reset your device:
1.

2.
Press the pairing button for 10 seconds and then release it.
