Instal·lació

Strategically place your water leak sensors in areas prone to water leaks. Ensure the sensors are placed on a flat surface. Do not place the device upright or on an uneven surface, as this may prevent proper detection or cause false alarms.

Recommended Placement Areas:

  • Basements (near sump pumps, water heaters, water softeners)
  • Kitchens (under sinks, near dishwashers, refrigerators, ice makers)
  • Bathrooms (near wash basins, toilets)
  • Laundry Rooms (near washing machines)
  • Near water pipes, windows, garages, restrooms, and wine cellars.

Característiques de l'aplicació:

The X-Sense Home Security App offers several features to manage your leak detection system:

  • Adjust base station alarm volume.
  • Mute an active alarm.
  • View your alarm history.
  • Use "Remind Me Later" to temporarily mute alerts for set durations (10 min, 30 min, 2 hrs, 6 hrs, or 12 hrs).
  • Test the device functionality.
  • Rebre alertes de bateria baixa.
  • Share sensor access with family or friends.

Manteniment

Substitució de la bateria:

Each water leak sensor is powered by 2 AAA batteries, which can last up to 3 years. When the battery is low, you will receive an alert via the app. To replace the batteries, carefully remove the 3 screws on the back of the sensor, replace the batteries, and re-secure the cover tightly to maintain its waterproof seal. Using lithium batteries can extend the lifespan to 5 years.

Resolució de problemes

  • Compatibilitat Wi-Fi: The system is compatible only with 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi networks. It is incompatible with 5.0 GHz networks.
  • Interval de connexió: The wireless connection range is up to 1,700 ft (500 m) in open areas. Obstacles like walls and large appliances can reduce this range. Ensure the base station is centrally located or within reasonable proximity to all sensors.
  • Col·locació del sensor: Always place sensors flat on a surface. Improper placement (upright or at an angle) may prevent accurate leak detection.
  • No Sensor Alarm: The SWS0A water leak sensors themselves do not emit an audible alarm; only the base station sounds the alarm. If you require a model where both the device and base station sound an alarm, consider the X-Sense SWS54 Kit.
  • Alertes de bateria baixa: The app will notify you when sensor batteries are low. Replace AAA batteries promptly to ensure continuous protection.
