Operation

3.1 Transport Mode
They are shipped with batteries inside the sensor. Default the sensor is in transport mode which means not to activate operation.
3.2 Installation Mode

  • Users need to press the button over 5 seconds to activate operation into installation mode. When the Sensor tries to join the network, it will keep blinking for 3 seconds.
  • Once the sensor joins the network, the LED will keep on for 3 seconds and send an uplink.
  • Users can press the button for over 5 seconds to try to join the network again.
  • The device will send uplink three times with FW version when the device joined successfully.

3.3 Default Operation

  • During default operation the device will send a message to the network anytime there is a sufficient delta in the environmental conditions
    ○ Water leakage status change dry/wet (dry to wet Buzzer alarm)
    ○ Tamper detected (Buzzer alarm)
    ○ Button pressed (No buzzer alarm)
    ○ Keepalive message (No buzzer alarm).

  • Users can press the button to send a test message to the network.

  • The device will send a message saying it has been inactive for 60 minutes.

  • While in default mode the device will flash the LED 3 times within 100ms only when the user presses the test button.

 Messages
