Description and Function
The wetness Sensor consists of a small Transmitter (Tx) and a portable Receiver
(Rx). The Tx is powered by 2 X AAA alkaline batteries. The Rx is powered either
by 4 X AA Alkaline batteries or via a 6 Volt power supply (not supplied). The Tx
can be attached to the supplied Easy-Clip Sensor or to Standard sensor or to a
Bed-Mat (optional extra). They can be placed inside a sanitary pad or nappy or
between the sheets under the user so that the Tx is triggered as soon as it
detects urination or wetness. Once triggered, a signal is sent to the Rx which will
emit a choice of alarm sounds, music or a recorded message, user’s name
(useful for identifying the wet user by name) or music of choice indicating
urination or wetness. A silent vibrating option is available. Up to 16 Tx/Rx units
can be used in the same location and more than one Rx for each Tx.
The transmit range of the Tx to Rx is approximately 25 meters in open field and
fresh batteries.
The average battery life in the Tx is about 30 days and in the Rx about 7 days
(depending on the frequency and nature of alarms).
Transmitter (Tx)
Power
Place two AAA Alkaline batteries in the battery compartment and observe correct
polarity. Average battery life is about 30 days.
Red LED Indicator
The Red LED should start to flash once every 5 seconds when sensor is dry and
once every one second when sensor is wet. Make sure batteries are new and
making good contact within battery compartment if Red LED does NOT flash.
Encode Switch
Make sure that the encode switch setting inside the battery compartment is set in
a matching way to the Receiver (Rx) encode switch setting.
Operation
If the Tx is used with Easy-Clip Sensor, then it can be attached to the user
pyjama top or night dress using the safety pin or the clip. If the Tx is being used
with a Bed-Mat, then the Tx should be attached to the side of the bed and away
from any wetness.
Receiver (Rx)
Power
Place four (4) AA Alkaline batteries in the battery compartment and observe
correct polarity.
