PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Flood-Control is a universal, Z-Wave Plus™ compatible flood and temperature sensor. The device can be powered using the battery, 12/24V
DC power supply, or both. A flood alarm is sent to the Z-Wave network devices or additionally to any external system through opening an NC
contact using the external power supply.
The device has built in temperature sensor that allows to monitor ambient temperature. Flood-Control is designed to be placed on the floor or
mounted on a wall (in this case Flood-Control probes should be extended using addition wire). The device has a built-in visual LED indicator
and an acoustic alarm.
In addition, the sensor is equipped with a tilt sensor reporting tilt or movement to the main controller e.g. when someone has taken the Sensor
from its original location.
Flood-Control is sink-proof, which means it drifts on the water surface and keeps on sending alarm signal in case of substantial inundation of
water.

Main features

compatible with any Z-Wave™ or Z-Wave Plus™ Controller,
supports protected mode (Z-Wave network security mode) with AES-128 encryption,
may be connected to any external system (potential free output terminal),
extremely easy installation - simply put on a surface prone to flooding,
may be installed anywhere - flood sensor's contacts extended with a wire,
battery or VDC powered. When connected to an external 12/24V DC power source, the battery serves as an emergency power source,
theft protection - tilt or moving is reported to the Z-Wave network or external system's controller,
two operating modes - flood/temperature sensor or just a temperature sensor,
alarm is signalled by sound, visual indicator (LED diode) and Z-Wave.
Flood-Control is a fully compatible Z-Wave Plus™ device.
This device may be used with all devices certified with the Z-Wave Plus certificate and should be compatible with such devices
produced by other manufacturers. All non-battery operated devices within the network will act as repeaters to increase reliability
of the network. The device is a Security Enabled Z-Wave Plus product and a Security Enabled Z-Wave Controller must be used
in order to fully utilize the product.

BASIC ACTIVATION
When powered, the device will indicate Z-Wave status with colour of LED:
» Green - the device is already added to the Z-Wave network.
» Red - the device is not added to any Z-Wave network.
After completing installation it is recommended to test sensor's operation by placing the entire sensor or its probes' extension wire onto
water surface.
When changing the sensor's location, it's recommended to wake up the device and reconfigure the Z-Wave network by triple clicking the
TMP button or removing and inserting the battery.
