Risco RWT6F Installation Instructions

WIRELESS FLOOD DETECTOR
Model: RWT6F
Installation instructions
1 General Description
The wireless flood detector is a fully supervised detector used to
detect the presence of water based liquids at any desired location
such as basements or water tanks.
The detector is comprised from 2 parts: Wireless transmitter and
flood sensor which are connected by 2.4m cable.
The detector operates with RISCO Group's programmable wireless
receivers.
2 Activating the Battery
Remove the red battery isolation strip to activate the battery.

3 LED Indication
On: The LED turns on each time the detector transmits (alarm,
tamper or supervision). Blink: Low battery condition. The LED will
blink on each transmission.
4 Quick Device Allocation at the WiComm
Smart Hub
When adding a flood detector device using the device wizard setup,
enter the flood detector Serial Number in the wizard. If you later
purchase an extra detector you can enroll it as follows:
To quickly allocate the sensor at the WiComm Smart Hub:
If the WiComm Smart Hub is not already in Learn mode, press the
button on the WiComm Smart Hub for 5 seconds; the unit
beeps once as it enters Learn mode (all the LEDs also light up, one
after the other).
Remove the red isolation strip from the battery and make sure the
cover is removed so the internal tamper switch is accessible.
Send a signal transmission from the flood detector by pressing the
tamper button for at least 2 seconds; the WiComm Smart Hub beeps
once to accept or beeps three times to reject. Once accepted, the
system announces the device type and its zone (for example,
"Detector, zone 1").
When the detectors have been enrolled, short-press the WiComm
Smart Hub button to exit Learn mode; the unit beeps once and
the LEDs stop flashing.
After quick device allocation you may change the zone label on the
user web at www.riscocloud.com.
Note: For future use, it is recommended to write down the detector
description, zone number, and installation location of each allocated
detector.
5 Installation
Select a mounting location that is suitable both for the transmitter
and the flood sensor as follows:
Transmitter Mounting Location:
•
Place the transmitter at the highest possible position to improve
communication and prevent from coming wet in the event of
flooding.
•
Test the transmitter's communication quality by generating an
alarm and verifying that the receiver has received it. If the alarm
signal is not detected, reposition the transmitter and try again.
Flood Sensor Mounting location:
The flood sensor should be placed in a position where water will
accumulate rapidly in an event of flooding.
After selecting the mounting location:
1. Attach the flood sensor in horizontal position near the floor with
using the double-sided adhesive.
2. Secure the flood sensor cable to the wall.
Note: It is recommended to place the flood sensor cable inside metal
or plastic pipe.
