LTV-WL1 Water Leak Sensor:
1. Remove the front cover by twisting counter-clockwise to the unlock position.
2. Insert 2 fresh AA batteries according to the polarity markings. The LED light will flash blue when
batteries are inserted.
3. Replace front cover and turn clockwise to locked position.
Mounting:
• The sensor will work best when simply placed flat on a floor. It will begin to detect water at 0.031 inches
(0.787mm).
• If sensor is placed vertically (Ex: hung inside a sump pump) the depth of the water needs to be at least
0.25 inches (6.35mm) high to trigger the sensor.
IMPORTANT:
The metal contacts on the sensor should not be in contact with other metal. This will cause
false WET readings and may damage the sensor.
Note:
Since your Water Leak Sensor is an “Extra Sensor”, it will need to be scanned in manually for
viewing on the La Crosse View app. See this video for instructions:
