3DESCRIPTION AND FEATURESMain features of FIBARO Flood Sensor:• compatible with Apple HomeKit technology• Bluetooth® low energy technology for wireless communication• detects ooding• detects tampering using accelerometer or when the casing is opened• easy installation - simply put on a surface prone to ooding• may be installed anywhere - sensor can be extended using an external probe• battery powered• indicates state using LED diode and buzzerFIBARO Flood Sensor is a HomeKit-enabled water sensor using Bluetooth® low energy technology. Along with detecting ooding, the accessory measures the ambient temperature. Tampering is detected whenever the accessory is moved or casing is opened.Built-in LED indicator and an acoustic alarm signal ooding and tampering. The LED can be also used to identify the accessory.The accessory is designed to be placed on the oor or mounted on a wall (in this case sensor should be extended using an external probe). The accessory is sink-proof, which means it drifts on the water surface and keeps on sending alarm signal in case of substantial inundation of water.#1: Description and featuresNOTESensor external probe is not included.iNOTEControlling this HomeKit-enabled ac-cessory requires an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with iOS 9.3 or later.

6PHYSICAL INSTALLATIONSENS 1SENS 2Extending Flood Sensor contacts with a wired probe:NOTEMounting screws shown in a diagram are not included. Choose a screw type depending on the building material it is being attached to. iCAUTIONSensor’s contacts are dedicated to ood de-tection only. Do not connect external volt-age!!#4: Physical installationTo install the Flood Sensor simply place it sensor on a surface prone to ooding. Three electrodes underneath the device should evenly touch the sur-face.NOTESensor external probe is not included.iIf you want the accessory to be mounted on a wall or in a distance from ooding source, sensor should be extended using an external probe.NOTEBefore completing the installation it is recommended to test sensor’s operation by placing the entire sen-sor or sensor probe onto water surface.i
7RESETResetting the Flood Sensor to factory defaults: Reset procedure allows to restore the accessory back to its factory settings including HomeKit pairing. We recommend performing re-setting procedure within range of your iOS device’s Bluetooth®.1. Open the cover.2. Press the button 3 times then press and hold the button.3. Wait for the LED indicator to glow yellow.4. Release the button.5. Click the button to conrm.6. After resetting the accessory will glow red - it is ready to be paired again.NOTEIf reset procedure was performed out-side iOS device’s Bluetooth® range the accessory will not be removed from the HomeKit app and will not respond. In this case remove the de-vice manually from the app. i#5: ResetButton
8FUNCTIONALITIES#6: FunctionalitiesFlooding detection:The Flood Sensor alarms about ooding whenever water connects sensor’s probes and reports it to your iOS device. Until the ooding does not cease, the accessory constantly beeps and blinks red signaling the alarm.Tampering signalization is ignored during the alarm.Tamper detection:The Flood Sensor detects tampering when the accessory is moved or casing is opened and reports it to your iOS device. Tampering is indicated with an alternate blinking in red, blue and white and one short beep.Temperature measuring:The Flood Sensor measures ambient temperature every 10 min-utes. If the measured temperature diers from previously reported by at least 1°C (1.8°F), accessory reports it to your iOS device.Battery level measuring:The Flood Sensor measures battery level every 24 hours and reports it to your iOS device. Additionally, if battery level is below 15%, the accessory will report low level battery status to your iOS device.NOTEIf you are using Fibaro app you can adjust sensitivity for tamper detection using pa-rameters.i
9CONFIGURABLE PARAMETERS#7: Congurable parameters1. Tamper – sensor sensitivityThis parameter allows to set sensitivity of tamper detection.The higher the value of this parameter, the higher the sensitivity. If the installation surface is prone to vibrations, setting lower sensitiv-ity is recommended.Available settings: 0 – tamper disabled1 – low sensitivity2 – medium sensitivity3 – high sensitivityDefault setting: 2 (medium sensitivity)
