TrolMaster WD-1 Water Detector Owner's Manual

Overview

Thank you for purchasing the TrolMaster’s WD-1 Water Detector. A water detector is an electronic device that is specially designed to detect the presence of water and provide an alert in time to allow the prevention of water leakage in the Aqua-X Irrigation Control System

The default function of Water Dectector (WD-1) is for leak detection and there is a triangle symbol shown in the LCD display of the Aqua-X Controller. When the WD-1 detects water leakage, it will send alarm message to your Smartphone one minute later. You can also check the alarm message in the Aqua-X Controller.

This unit could be assigned to any controlled output in the system to monitor the watering schedules. Two or more Water.Detectors ( up to 30pcs for each system) can be linked together in a “daisy chain,” expanding the leak detection monitoring area.

The default function of Water Detector (WD-1) is for leak detection and there is a triangle symbol shown in the LCD display of the Aqua-X Controller.

If the Water Detector is NOT in original default function ( leak sensor ), you can change the Assignment into Leak Sensor as above processes.

b. Assignment ( Output Assigned Mode )
The default mode of Water Detector is in Leak Sensor ( Leak Detection Mode). You can change the Leak Detection Mode ( Leak Sensor ) into Output Assigned Mode ( Assignment ) as below processes. As one Water Detector can be assigned to only one output on any Control Board, you need to select 24V or 110V and one of six outputs to be assigned to the Water Detector. When the output has been successfully assigned, the Water Detector will send an alarm message to your Smartphone one minute later when it detects no water on the reservoirs of the irrigation system.

NOTE :

1. Each Water Detector can be assigned to a Control Board which has been successfully assigned to the Aqua-X Controller. The Water Detector can not be assigned to an unassigned Control Board.

2. One Water Detector can be assigned to only one 24V or 110V output. One Aqua-X Controller can connect up to 30pcs Water Detectors.

3. If the assigned output of that board is offline, the output symbol will blink on the LCD display of the Aqua-X Controller.

4. If the output is successfully assigned with the Water Detector and the Water Detector is connected with the Aqua-X Controller, there is a dot before the assigned output on the Control Board interface as below illustration.
