2. Before inserting the batteries, find the dip switches instruction above battery compartment and set the sensor sensitivity level and channel number: Sensitivity Level: To change the sensor sensitivity of detection (High or Low), change Dip Switch 3, as referenced in Figure 3. High sensitivity: The water leakage alarm will be triggered when the detected water leak capacitance value equals to or over 60PF and...
Page 11
Low sensitivity: The water leakage alarm will be triggered when the detected water leak capacitance value equals to or over 90PF and be muted when the value equals to or lower 80PF. Channel Number: This device supports up to four sensors. To set each channel number, change Dip Switches 1 and 2 , as referenced in Figure 3.

3.Insert two 1.5V AAA batteries. The LED indicator will turn on for four seconds and normally flash once every 60 seconds (the sensor transmission update period). Note: If no LED light up or is lighted permanently, make sure the battery is inserted the correct way or a proper reset is happened.
selected. 5.Close the battery door. Repeat additional remote transmitters(sold separately), verifying each remote is on a different channel. 5. Sensor Placement This device can be placed at multi locations include under-the-sink cabinet in a kitchen or bathroom, near a water heater, a basements, a sump pump, a toilet, a washer, a humidifier, an AC unit, or ice-making refrigerator.
GW1000 Wi-Fi Gateway (sold separately). 6.1 Pair with Gateway If the GW1000 has been in operation, and you have never had any WH55 multi-channel water leak sensor(s) setup before, just power up the sensor(s) and GW1000 will pick the sensor data automatically.

If one WH55 sensor has been hooked on GW1000 before, and you have a new WH55 sensor to replace the old one, just power off the old sensor and power on the new sensor, the gateway will pick up the new sensor data automatically.
6.2 Wi-Fi Connection for the Gateway For this part, please refer to the manual of the GW1000 Wi-Fi gateway. Any question, please contact the customer service. 7. View Online Data with WS View When the Wi-Fi configuration is done, you may view leakage detection condition as well as the sensor battery level on WS view App at the live data page.

WS View app. To remote monitor the sensor data, please upload the data to our free Ecowitt Weather Server: https://www.ecowitt.net. Detailed operation instructions can be found on the GW1000 manual.
8. Set Email Alerts Once your device added successfully on the Ecowitt Weather server, you may set alerts for the water leak sensor(s) on the website to get email notifications.
Note: Once water seepage is detected, the device will emit 90dB alarm, and the ecowitt.net will push email alerts at the same time. 10.Warranty Information We disclaim any responsibility for any technical error or printing error, or the consequences thereof.
