DECT Water Detector Installation Guide
Protect your home from expensive leaks and Waters by installing a Water Detector near water, heaters, drain pans, and
underneath sinks. The Water Sensor is small, easy-to-use, and fits almost anywhere. Sit the sensor directly on the ground and it will
notify you if it detects the presence of water.
The water sensor has a built-in buzzer to make audible alerts when alarms are
triggered. With two types of sensing probes, the sensor can be deployed on the ground or mounted on the wall.

Initiate connecting the device to the base station using the instructions provided with it
1.
Remove the top cover of the device.
2.
Remove the isolation tab of CR123A battery.
3.
The LED indicator will be blinking blue attempting to pair with the gateway or base station.
4.
If network is not found after 90 seconds, the sensor will go into sleep mode. To wake the sensor again, you need to long
press the tamper button for 5 seconds to trigger the paring process, and then sensor will repeat steps from the step 3 to step 4.
5.
Follow the directions presented by the gateway or base station to complete pairing. If the sensor needs to be tripped in
order to complete pairing a water detection event can be simulated by bringing the probes into contact with moisture.
6.
Close top cover of the device.
The Water Detector can be deployed on the ground or mounted on the wall.
Ground Deployment
When the device is deployed on the ground, the Water Detector detects water through the probes protruding from its back
cover.
1. Put the Water Sensor on the ground with the back cover facing downward.
2. Possible Water Sensor areas include: in the water heater tray, in the sump pump, at the toilet base, or at ground-level of the
basement.
Wall Mounting
When the device is deployed on the wall, the Water Detector must be connected to the external extension probe.
1. Use the included screw to secure the mounting bracket to a clean, dry surface of the wall.
2. Remove the waterproof plug that covers the USB interface.
3. Connect the extension water probe into the device terminal.
4. The two sensor probes at the end of the cable are close to the base of the area to be monitored (about 1-2mm away), or the
probe housing is laying flat on the base of the area to be monitored.
5. In order for the sensor to work, BOTH probes must have contact with water. Make sure both probe tips are positioned
correctly. Use the included adhesive pad/screw to secure the probe housing to a clean, dry surface.
