راه اندازی

۱. جعبه‌گشایی و بررسی اولیه:

Carefully remove the FIBARO Flood Sensor from its packaging. Ensure all components, including the sensor, CR123A battery, and user manual, are present. Inspect the device for any visible damage.

2. روشن کردن دستگاه:

The Flood Sensor can be powered in two ways:

• قدرت باتری: The sensor comes with one CR123A battery. To install or replace the battery, twist the top cover counter-clockwise to open the device. Insert the battery according to the polarity markings. The battery lifetime is approximately 2.5 years.
• VDC Power (Optional): For continuous power and Z-Wave repeater functionality, the sensor can be connected to a 12/24 VDC power supply. Connect the VDC wires to the appropriate terminals inside the sensor. Refer to the detailed wiring diagram in the full product manual for correct connections.

3. Adding to a Z-Wave Network (Inclusion):

To integrate the Flood Sensor into your smart home system:

1. Place the Flood Sensor within direct range of your Z-Wave controller.
2. Set your Z-Wave controller into inclusion (add) mode. Refer to your controller's manual for specific instructions.
3. Quickly triple-click the B-button located inside the sensor. The LED indicator will flash to confirm inclusion mode.
4. Once successfully added, the LED will stop flashing. The sensor should now appear in your Z-Wave controller's device list.

توجه: If using a DC power supply with a battery backup, some Z-Wave hubs (e.g., Hubitat) may report incorrect battery levels or drain the battery quickly. It is recommended to consult your specific hub's documentation or community forums for optimal configuration.

4. قرار دادن:

Position the Flood Sensor in areas prone to water leaks, such as:

• زیر سینک ها
• Near washing machines or dishwashers
• در زیرزمین‌ها یا اتاق‌های ابزار
• نزدیک آبگرمکن ها

The gold-plated probes should make contact with the surface where water detection is desired. For wall mounting or hard-to-reach areas, additional wired probes can be connected to the SENS1 and SENS2 terminals inside the device.

دستورالعمل های عملیاتی

1. Water Detection:

When the sensor's probes detect water, it will immediately:

• Emit an audible alarm.
• Flash its LED indicator.
• Send an alert to your Z-Wave controller, which can then notify you via smartphone, tablet, or email, and trigger predefined scenes or actions (e.g., shut off a water valve, turn on lights).

۳. پایش دما:

The integrated temperature sensor continuously monitors the environment. If a sudden or critical change in temperature is detected (e.g., a sharp drop indicating potential freezing conditions), the sensor can alert your Z-Wave controller. This feature is crucial for protecting pipes from freezing and bursting.

3. Tilt and Tampتشخیص er:

The built-in tilt sensor detects any unauthorized movement or removal of the device. If the sensor is tilted or moved from its intended position, it will send a tamper alert to your Z-Wave controller, enhancing the security of your monitoring setup.

تعمیر و نگهداری

1. تعویض باتری:

When the battery level is low, the sensor will send a low battery warning to your Z-Wave controller. To replace the CR123A battery:

1. Twist the top cover of the sensor counter-clockwise to open it.
2. باتری قدیمی را بردارید.
3. یک باتری جدید CR123A را وارد کنید و از قطب صحیح اطمینان حاصل کنید.
4. Replace the top cover by aligning the marks and twisting clockwise until secure.

باتری های قدیمی را طبق مقررات محلی مسئولانه دور بیندازید.

2. تمیز کردن:

Clean the sensor's exterior with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents. Ensure the gold-plated probes are free from dirt or debris to maintain optimal detection sensitivity.

عیب یابی

• Sensor not responding/not detected by Z-Wave controller:
  • Ensure the sensor is within range of your Z-Wave controller.
  • سطح باتری را بررسی کنید و در صورت لزوم تعویض کنید.
  • Verify that your Z-Wave controller is in inclusion mode when attempting to add the device.
  • Perform a factory reset on the sensor (refer to the full manual for specific steps) and attempt inclusion again.
• آلارم‌های کاذب:
  • Ensure the probes are clean and free from moisture or conductive debris when no actual leak is present.
  • Check for condensation in high-humidity environments that might trigger the sensor.
• Battery drains quickly when DC powered:
  • Some Z-Wave hub drivers may not correctly manage power switching between DC and battery. Consult your specific Z-Wave hub's support resources or community forums for potential workarounds or driver updates.
  • If using DC power, consider removing the battery if a backup is not strictly required, or if your hub's integration causes issues.
