After securing the sensor plate your Water Sensor unit will have the waterproof rating of IP65.
Adding your Sensor to your Z-Wave Network.
With your sensor powered on you'll need to add it to your Z-Wave network.
1. Put your Z-Wave controller / gateway into "add new product" mode. This is sometimes referred to as pairing or
inclusion mode within some software. If you are unsure of how to do this, please refer to your gateway's user
manual.
2. Water Sensor 6 can be connected to your Z-Wave network using standard or advanced security. Standard security
is recommended - advanced security will decrease battery life and response time and is also typically not needed
for devices that do not control access or the electronics in your home.
To connect Water Sensor 6 to your gateway using standard security: Press its Action Button once; its LED flash will
flash green which will indicate it has entered pairing mode.
To connect Water Sensor 6 to your gateway using advanced security: Tap its Action Button twice within 1 second; its
LED will flash blue to indicate that it has entered pairing mode.
3. If your Water Sensor was added successfully, its RGB LED will change colour for 2 seconds: solid green with basic
security or solid blue for advanced security. After 2 seconds have passed, Water Sensor 6 will enter Wakeup Mode
during which its LED will flash orange to indicate that it is awake and ready to receive commands and configurations
from your Z-Wave gateway. You may tap its Action Button to put it back to sleep.
Should Water Sensor 6 fail to connect to your gateway its LED will be red for 2 seconds after which it'll return to displaying
a gradient of colours. If pairing fails please follow the previous steps again ensuring that your Z-Wave gateway is in the
correct mode.
Your Water Sensor 6 will now work as part of your smart home; you can configure it, use it to control events and triggers,
or view its status from your Z-Wave software or smartphone application.
Optimally placing Water Sensor 6.
