Philio PAT15 Flood Water Sensor

Flood Water Sensor PAT15

The flood sensor PAT15 has flood, based on Z-WaveTM technology. It is the Z-WaveTM plus product, it support the security, OTA… Those newest features of the Z-WaveTM technology. Z-WaveTM is a wireless communication protocol designed for home automation, specifically to remotely control applications in residential and light commercial environments. The technology uses a low-power RF radio embedded or retrofitted into home electronics devices and systems, such as lighting, home access control, entertainment systems and household appliances. This product can be included and operated in any Z-WaveTM network with other Z-WaveTM certified devices from other manufacturers and/or other applications. All non-battery operated nodes within the network will act as repeaters regardless of vendor to increase reliability of the network.

The device adopt the Z-WaveTM 700 series chip, when your Z-WaveTM network system is all made by Z-WaveTM 700 series devices. The network system will have the advantages as below.

  • Concurrent multi-channel support reduces external interference.

Overview

Add to/Remove from Z-WaveTM Network

There are one tamper keys in the backside of the device, It can add, remove, reset or association from the Z-WaveTM network. In the first time, add the device into the Z-WaveTM network. First, make sure the primary controller is in the add mode. And then power on the device, just take out the insulation Mylar in the back side of the device. The device will auto start the SmartStart Include mode.
Notice: Including a node ID allocated by Z-WaveTM Controller means “Add” or “Inclusion”. Excluding a node ID allocated by Z-WaveTM Controller means “Remove” or “Exclusion”.

  1. Function Description

Add

| 1.      Have Z-WaveTM  Controller entered inclusion mode.

2.      Pressing the tamper key three times within 1.5 seconds to enter the inclusion mode.

3.      After add successful, the LED will light ON 1 second.

Remove

| 1.      Have Z-WaveTM Controller entered exclusion mode.

2.      Pressing tamper key three times within 1.5 seconds to enter the exclusion mode.

3.      Node ID has been excluded.

Reset| Notice: Use this procedure only in the event that the primary controller is lost or otherwise inoperable.

1.    Pressing tamper key four times within 1.5 seconds and do not release the tamper key in the 4th pressed, and the LED will light ON.

2.    After 3 seconds the LED will turn OFF, after that within 2 seconds, release the tamper key. If successful, the LED will light ON one second. Otherwise, the LED will flash once.

  3. IDs are excluded and all settings will reset to factory default.
