2.6 Testing Your Wireless WaterAlarm
It is important to test your Wireless WaterAlarm to ensure you have programmed all the
telephone numbers correctly and to make sure the Wireless WaterAlarm is working
properly with your telephone line. Before you start the test, make sure the
STANDBY/ON switch is in the ON position.
The easiest test is to simply place the water sensor on a wet surface. The WaterSiren
will alarm and the dialer will begin dialing your programmed phone numbers. To
complete the test, do not cancel the alarm call-out during any of the calls until the last
number has been dialed. When you cancel the alarm call-out before the other numbers
have been dialed, the Wireless WaterAlarm will stop calling the rest of the phone
numbers.
After you have verified the programmed call-to phone numbers have been called
successfully, you must still cancel the alarm call-out and correct the alarm condition.
Remove the sensor from the wet surface and dry with a cloth. To cancel the alarm call-
out and reset the Wireless WaterAlarm, move the STANDBY/ON switch to the
STANDBY position, and then again back to the ON position. The red alarm light on
the front of the Wireless WaterAlarm will go out in a few moments. Your Wireless
WaterAlarm is now ready for normal operation.
3.0 OPERATION OF YOUR WIRELESS WATERALARM
3.1 Standby Mode:
On the front of your Wireless WaterAlarm is a toggle switch with two positions,
STANDBY or ON. The STANDBY position is primarily used for programming
purposes. The switch should be in the ON position once programming is completed.
With the switch in the STANDBY position, you can access the main and programming
menus.
Important:
if the switch is left in the STANDY position after programming
is complete, you cannot remotely dial into your Wireless FreezeAlarm and the
system will not call out if an alarm condition occurs!
Some users may want to temporarily flip the switch to the STANDBY mode if they are
visiting the monitored location and don’t want the possibility of an incoming call being
