Z-Wave certified controllers. If your controller supports S2, please refer to the user guide of the controller for detailed instructions
on adding or removing devices to/from the network. If not, it will add as a non-secure device, this will not affect the functionality of
the unit, the device can be added or removed using the following procedure:
1
A�ach either the light or water sensor cable (if available) to HS-FS100+ before it is powered on, then start the inclusion process.

Built
-in Temperature Sensor
The temperature sensor is designed to transmit temperature data to your controller using the command class sensor mul�level, every 60
minutes (on ba�ery power). That interval may be changed when the unit is on line power, see parameter se�ngs on page 2 for details.
The light sensor can be mounted over any indicator light and will notify your controller with an event type (Light Detected No�fica�on),
if it detects color it will send a different event type (Light Color Change Detected) command and will beep 5 times. A "No Event"
command will be sent to the controller when light is no longer detected. The sensor will check for light every 60 seconds (on battery
power) or every 400ms (on line power).
The water sensor is designed to detect moisture along the entire length of its cable. This is especially useful for detecting leaks over
extended distances and around appliances. Optional extension cables may be added for coverage of up to 150 feet. The sensor will
notify your controller with a (Water Alarm No�fica�on), event type (Water Leak Detected) command and will beep 5 times when water
is detected. In addi�on, once water is detected, frequency of the beep and no�fica�on to the controller can be configured based on
parameter 2, the default se�ng is every 10 minutes. Another Z-Wave command will be sent to the controller when water is no longer
detected. The cable can be reused once it dries. The sensor will check for water every 60 seconds (on battery power) or every 400 ms
(on line power).
Note: Whenever an event such as water leak or light status change is triggered for an extended period of �me, ba�ery life will be
significantly reduced. A�er such an event, it is recommended to install fresh ba�eries or use USB power supply.
Buzzer
The built in buzzer emits 5 beeps when the device detects water or light. On line power (USB) the associated controller may enable the
buzzer by sending a command class basic or binary switch set command with a non zero value to the sensor.
