Water Leak Detection
This water leak sensor is used to detect water leaks and floods. Once a water leak occurs, the device will sound an alarm continuously paired with the LED flashing red. Meanwhile, the base station will report a warning and a push alert will be sent to your phone by the app. If no action is taken at this time, the device will continue to sound an alarm until the battery runs out.X-SENSE SWS51 Pro Smart Water Leak Sensor- fig 9 Note: When a water leak stops, you will receive an “Alarm Ended” push notification on your phone from the app.
Silencing the Device When the device is triggered, simply press the Silence button on the water leak sensor or base station to mute the alarm, or turn the Silence button to mute using the app. If water is no longer on the device during the silent period, an app push notification will be sent to your
phone. If the device is still soaked in water after being silenced, the alarm and push notification will not be repeated. After the water leak sensor is taken out of the water and wiped dry, the app push notification will be enabled, and the water leak sensor will return to normal standby mode.
Unique Features Remind Me Later. When the device is triggered, “Remind Me Later” will appear on your phone from the app. You can set a “Reminder Me Later” timer to silence the water leak sensor and base station for a period of time (10 minutes/30 minutes/2 hours/6 hours/12 hours).
When the timer is up, if the sensor still detects a water leak, it will resend alerts. If the water leak stops while the timer is running, you’ll also be notified. The “Remind Me Later” function can be disabled at any time. This feature can be used to remind you to resolve a water leak at a later time.
