Water Leak Sensor F.A.Q.'S
Q. I bought a new Sensor and the Control Center will not
recognize it. Why?
A. First, make sure the yellow battery isolation tape has
been removed and the battery is new. Second, ensure
the battery is inserted into the Sensor according to
polarity(+/-) markings. Third, confirm the Sensor has
been correctly assigned to a Zone.
Q. I put the Sensor on Zone 4 and it will not set off the
alarm. Why?
A. Zone 4 is a Dedicated Alert Zone and is designed to
monitor Sensors in this Zone. It will only issue an alert
(LED will flash, continuous beeping will be heard). Sensors
in Zone 4 will not set off the alarm. Use Zone 4 for water
Sensors, garage doors, gates, sheds or other areas you
want to monitor (i.e. areas that you want to be alerted if
there is a problem, but do not want the alarm to sound).
Q. I erased a Sensor from a Zone and now all of my
other Sensors in that Zone will not work. Why?
A. The system can only erase entire Zones. You will need
to add the other Sensors back in that Zone to the
Control Center again.
Q. How can I tell if the Sensor is working?
A. Each Sensor has an LED that indicates the Sensor
is operating (flashes when triggered). However if the
battery is to weak, the signal may not reach the Control
Center. This will cause low battery indication on the
Control Center (See pg 10).
