Aeotec by Aeon Labs Water Sensor
Your Z-Wave system is only as good as it is smart. Aeotec
by Aeon Labs’ Water Sensor brings it a new level of
inte l l i g e n c e , one that is suited to both safety and
convenience. Capable of detecting either the presence or
absence of water to as little as 3% of an inch, each sensor is
crafted into the smallest and most subtle of packages.

Quick Start
Your Aeotec by Aeon Labs’ Water Sensor is capable of
detecting the presence or absence of water. Choosing the
scenario you want will help you determine where best to
place your sensor. The most common scenario is the
detection of leaking water from the likes of a hot water
system or an air conditioner. In other instances you may
wish to detect when the level of water in a tank has
decreased passed a certain level.
Probe
Prepare your Water Sensor
The first step is to activate your Water Sensor
1. Take out the back shell of Water Sensor
2. Remove the clear battery insulator by pulling it away from
the Water Sensor
With the battery insulator removed, your Water Sensor
powered and activated. It is now time prepare to install
your Water Sensor.
3.
Choosing a position for the Water probe
The following tips will help you select a position that will
optimise the performance of your water probe.
If detecting the presence of water, your probe’s two prongs
should sit flat against the surface where water will collect.
Water
If detecting the absence of water, your probe’s two prongs
should sit at the minimum water level you want.
If detecting the absence of water, it’s fine to submerge your
probe in water - it’s waterproof.
Choosing a position for the Water Sensor
The following tips will help you select a position that will
optimise the performance of your Water Sensor.
Your water sensor is not waterproof or weatherproof, as such
you should not place it in any area where it is likely to get wet.
This includes not placing it directly underneath objects which
you may be monitoring for leaks, such as water heaters.
For an optimal wireless signal, position your Water Sensor 1
meter off of the ground.
Additionally, for an optimal wireless signal mount your Water
Sensor with its longest side vertical.
Will have an optimal wireless signal when affixed 1 meter or
above your home's floor.
Placed within 30 meters of another Z-Wave device that is
either a gateway or not powered by batteries.
If outdoors should be protected from the elements - such as
inside a recess or within a waterproof box
Keep Dry
Installation your Water Probe
Once you've selected the best position for both parts of your
Water Sensor to be installed, it's time to affix both to their
respective surfaces.
1. Affixing your water probe’s mounting plate
There is a magnet inside the water probe, if you’ve sure the
position where your water probe should install, only adsorption
your water probe up to a metal.
If you can’t find the metal to affixing your water probe. Use the
Iron plates .
1. installation your Water Sensor
Your water sensor ’s mounting plate can be affixed using screws
or double-sided tape. You needn't worry about which end is the
top or the bottom, they can be mounted with either end at the top
- they're bidirectional.
If using screws, attach your water sensor’s mounting plate
using the screws. If either surface is soft, plasterboard for
instance, use the screw anchors.
If mounting your water sensor indoors in an area where itself
won't be exposed to condensation or moisture in the air, it is
possible to use mounting tape to affix it to a wall. To begin, wipe
the respective surface clean of any oil or dust. When the surface
has dried, peel one side of the tape back and attach it to the
corresponding section on the rear of main mounting plate.

3Adding your Water Sensor to Z-Wave network
With your mounting plates prepared to hold each component of
your sensor, it’s time to add it to your Z-Wave network.
On the rear of your water sensor, remove the spacing tab to
connect the batteries. Your water sensor’s LED will blink for 3
seconds.
Press the Z-Wave button on your primary Z-Wave controller /
gateway. If you’re unsure of how to do this, refer to its user
manual.
Press the Z-Wave button on your water sensor. If it has been
successfully added to your Z-Wave network, its LED will

Wake Up
Associate your Water Sensor with other Z-Wave
devices
It's possible to use your Aeotec by Aeon Labs’s Water
Sensor to talk to more than just your gateway. As an
example, you can create an automation activity that would
activate a siren when water is detected.
1.Set gateway sent Association set command, and Assign
route command to Water Sensor.
Then press and hold Z-Wave button of Water Sensor 3
seconds. Water Sensor will sent wake up notification to
gateway.
After gateway received the wake up notification, Gateway
will sent preset commands to Water Sensor.
Your Water Sensor is capable of directly controlling 5 other
Z-Wave devices within your Z-Wave network. The following
association steps are performed automatically if your
primary Z-Wave controller / gateway is either a SUC (Static
Update Controller) or a SIS (SUC ID Server). When this is
the case, you'll need to create automation activities directly
through your controller / gateway - refer to its user manual
for further information.
illuminate for 10 minutes. During this period your primary Z-
Wave controller / gateway is able to configure your sensor.
Your sensor will then automatically exit setup mode at the end
of 10 minutes.

Remove your Water Sensor from Z-Wave network
Your sensor can be removed from your Z-Wave network at
any time. You'll need to use the main controller in your Z-
Wave network to do this. The following instructions tell you
how to do this using Aeotec by Aeon Labs’s Z-Stick and
Minimote controllers. If you are using other products as
your main Z-Wave controller, please refer to the part of their
respective manuals that tells you how remove devices from
your network.
If you are using a Z-Stick
If your Z-Stick is plugged into a gateway or a computer,
unplug it.
Take your Z-Stick to your sensor.
Press the Z-Wave Button on your Z-Stick and hold for 3
seconds.
Press the Z-Wave button on your sensor.
If your sensor has been successfully removed from your
network, its LED will blink for 3 seconds. If the removal
was unsuccessful the light will be solid for 3 seconds after
pressing your sensor's Inclusion button.
Press the Z-Wave Button on the Z-Stick again to take it
out of removal mode.

In order to send your sensor new configuration commands
from your Z-Wave controller or gateway, it'll need to be
woken up.
Remove your Water Sensor from its mounting plate by
pressing down on the latch button and pulling it away from
its mounting plate.
Press the Wake-up Button 3 times quickly on the rear of
your sensor. Your sensor will now remain awake for 10
minutes.
When done, return your Water Sensor to its mounting
plate. To do this align the plate's hitch with your sensor's
hitch hole, and push the top of your sensor into the
mounting plate until the two parts click firmly together.
