1.6.2 Testing the Wireless Leak Detector Transmitter and Leak Detector Tape
1. Assemble a length of leak detection tape (see Section 2.5) .Plug the Leak Detector tape
and connecting cable in to the Wireless Leak Detector Transmitter. (Figure 5).
2. Check the valve is open.
3. Ensure the transmitter is at least 1 metre away from the Water Valve Control.
4. Wet the test pins at the end of the Leak Detection tape. The red LED “Leak Alarm” on the
Water Valve Control will flash, the Water Valve Control will beep and the valve will close.
The wireless transmitter will also emit an audible alarm and the internal red LED will flash
all the time the test pins are wet.
5. Remove one battery from the Wireless Transmitter to stop the audible alarm, then
reposition the battery in the transmitter and replace the transmitter cover.
6. Reset the Water Valve Control (see section 1.8).
NB. If you inadvertently wet the tape rather than its test pins, you will have to
disconnect the tape from the wireless transmitter before you will be able to
reset the system. Ensure the tape is dry before reconnecting or the system will
immediately alarm and close the valve again. The tape can be dried naturally or
by using a hairdryer on a medium setting.
1.6.1 Enrolling a Wireless Leak Detection Transmitter
1. Remove the top cover of the transmitter and insert 2 x AA batteries as shown on the battery
holder, and reassemble - the transmitter will beep 3 times to confirm correct installation. Leave the
cover off the transmitter whilst you complete the enrolling procedure.
2. Press the TEST button on the Valve Control 4 times, holding the button down each time until the
LEDs illuminate and the Valve Control beeps. The first three times all 3 LEDs will illuminate, on
the fourth time the orange WARNING LED will flash to indicate the Valve Control is in ENROL
mode. Please note that occasionally the system will enter ENROL mode after only 2 or 3 presses
of the TEST button. As soon as the WARNING LED starts to flash the system is in ENROL mode
and you can proceed to step 4. NB: The TEST button needs to be held down for approx 4
seconds to operate. Release the button when the Valve Control beeps.
3. Within 15 seconds of the WARNING LED starting to flash press and release the Setting button
on the Wireless Leak Detection transmitter (Figure 4) the Transmitter will beep and the orange
WARNING LED on the Water Valve Control will stop flashing to confirm that the enrolment was
successful.
At the same time the Water Valve Control will alarm and close the valve.
Reset the Water Valve Control (see section 1.8). This reset must be done before testing or enrolling the
next wireless component.
