GOCONTROL SMART Flow detector
INSTALLATION
The GoControl™ family of Z-Wave® certified wireless lighting products (smart
LED bulbs, switches, dimmers, outlets, plug-in modules), security devices
(alert sounder, motion sensor, and door/window sensor), and control products
(garage door controller and thermostat) bring a new level of intelligent wireless
capability to commercial and residential environments.
The Z-Wave wireless protocol is an international wireless standard for remote
home automation, security and other applications. Embedded in each device,
the Z-Wave smart chip enables two-way RF communication among hundreds
of Z-Wave enabled devices, allowing products and services from multiple
manufacturers to work seamlessly.
The FlowZ WL00Z-1 Smart Flow detector is simple to set up and provides
whole house monitoring of water flow that can alert you to catastrophic water
leaks like slab leaks, cracked pipes or a chronically running faucet.
GoControl Z-Wave products are easy to install, are Z-Wave Plus certified, and
allow dealers to create an integrated wireless network with nearly limitless
expansion and interoperability with security, energy management, home
entertainment, appliances, and more.
As part of a Z-Wave network, the WL00Z-1 will also act as a wireless repeater
to insure that commands intended for another device in the network are
received. This is useful when the device would otherwise be out of the radio
range of the wireless controller.
For indoor use only. Retain instructions for future use.
The WL00Z-1 Smart Flow detector module straps on a water pipe over the
foam pipe insulator covering the stick-on sensor strip that directly contacts the
pipe. The sensor strip that detects water flow plugs into the detector module.
The detector module is powered by a UL Listed plug-in power supply that also
plugs into the detector.
Pipe Preparation
1. Examine the water piping of the installation. Find the incoming line from
the meter or the line to be monitored. The WL00Z-1 must be installed
indoors on a copper pipe 3/4 to 1”diameter. Monitoring of PVC,cast iron,
galvanized or any other type of pipe is not supported.
2. Determine the direction of the water flow through the pipe to be monitored.
3. Clean a 6” section of the pipe with the included abrasive cleaning pad.
To ensure good contact with the flow sensor, be sure to clean completely
around the pipe.

Z-WAVE PLUS FEATURES
6 INCHES
The WL00Z-1 contains a Z-Wave 500 Series Module that supports
Z-Wave Plus® features. A Z-Wave certified portable or stationary Controller
can communicate with the Z-Wave 500 Series Module.
Depending on the capability of the Controller or gateway software, the following
operations will be performed by Smart Flow Detector. Refer to the controller or
gateway manual for details.
• Send an alert if water is running.
• Add or Remove Smart Flow Detector. Over-the-air firmware update by the
gateway or static Controller.
• Lifeline function which automatically notifies the associated modules and
the network that a manually reset device is no longer in the network, thus,
the corresponding association becomes invalid.

Flow Detector Installation
1. Look for the water flow direction arrow on the stick-on sensor strip.
2. Carefully peel off the stick-on sensor strip backing and affix the sensor strip
long-wise to the cleaned off section of the pipe. Be sure the water flow
direction in the pipe matches the flow direction arrow on the sensor
strip.
3. Position the red silicone insulator completely over the sensor strip, then
secure the insulator and sensor to the pipe with two evenly spaced wire
ties (included).
Flow detector Module Installation
Before the flow detector can accurately measure the water flow in the
monitored pipe, it will need to be calibrated. Perform the following steps to
calibrate the unit.

OPERATION
Once installed and calibrated, the Smart Flow detector will continuously
monitor the water flowing through the pipe. If water is running continuously at a
rate of approximately ten (10) oz. per minute, an alert will be sent to the Z-Wave
hub. The default Water Flow Time for the Smart Flow detector is 21 minutes.
You can change the Water Flow Time from 14 to 350 minutes (see
Configuration). The Smart Flow detector will send an alert based on the Water
Flow Time with a variation of up to seven (7) minutes. So out of the box, the
Smart Flow detector will send an alert if water is flowing for 21 to 28 minutes.
If the Water Flow Time is changed to 14 minutes, an alert will be sent between
14 and 21 minutes.
✓ Note: It may take up to seven (7) minutes for a water flowing alert to be
cleared.
✓ Note: This product should be tested periodically to make sure it is working
properly. The product, if used properly, may reduce the risk of water
damage. However it may fail to warn for a variety of reasons, including, but
not limited to improper installation or positioning, improper maintenance,
component failures, Z-Wave communication failures, water flow may be
outside of the product’s designed range of ten (10) oz. per minute and
certain environmental conditions may impact performance.
1. Fit the gray foam pipe insulator over the sensor assembly and onto the pipe
with the sensor cable exiting one end of the pipe insulator.
2. Fit the flow detector over the gray foam pipe insulator.
3. Secure the flow detector to the pipe using the attached hook and loop strap.
Power Supply Installation
1. Insert the power supply connector into the power input plug on the side of
the flow detector.
2. Plug the power supply into a non-switched 120 VAC outlet.
3. The green indicator on the flow detector should light.

Associations
The WL00Z-1 supports one level of Z-Wave association.
Group 1 association is used to identify another Z-Wave device in the network
that will receive unsolicited state changes and notification (alarm) events.
For instructions on how to “set lifeline association” please refer to your wireless
controller instructions.
Adding to a Network:
Refer to your Controller operating instructions to add this device under the
command of the Wireless Controller.
6. With your Controller in Discovery or Add Mode, press the LEARN button.
The green indicator will blink slowly.
7. When the Smart Flow Detector is added, the green indicator will blink
quickly three times, then stay on.
8. You should see an indication on your Controller that the “device was added”
to the network and the green indicator will turn off.
9. The device will appear in the list of sensors at the hub.
If the Controller/Gateway shows the addition failed, the red indicator will flash
three times then stay on. If this occurs, repeat Steps 1-3.
✓ NOTE: If you have trouble adding the WL00Z-1 to a group it may be that
the Home ID and Node ID were not cleared from it after testing. You must
first “RESET UNIT” to remove it from the network. Although adding it to a
group includes it in the network, removing it from a group does not remove it
from the network. If removed from a group, it functions as a repeater (only).
“RESET UNIT” removes it completely from the network.
To Reset Unit (If Required):
In the event that your primary Controller is lost or otherwise inoperable, to reset
the WL00Z-1 and clear all network information, follow these steps:
1. Press the LEARN button five (5) times quickly. The green indicator will start
to blink quickly.
2. Immediately press and hold the CALIBRATION button for 15 seconds.
3. The green indicator will turn off when the reset is successful.
Removing from a Network:
The WL00Z-1 can be removed from the network by the Controller/Gateway.
Refer to the Controller operating instructions for details.
1. Set the Controller into Removal Mode.
2. Press the LEARN button.
3. The green indicator will begin to blink slowly. When the Smart Flow Detector
is successfully removed, the green indicator will blink quickly three times
then stay on.
4. You should see an indication on your Controller that the device was removed
from the network.
✓ NOTE: If the Controller/Gateway shows the remove failed, the red indicator
will flash three times and stay on. If this occurs, repeat Steps 1-3.

IMPORTANT !!!
Radio controls provide a reliable communications link and fill an important need in portable wireless signaling.
However, there are some limitations which must be observed.
• For U.S. installations only: The radios are required to comply with FCC Rules and Regulations as Part 15 devices.
As such, they have limited transmitter power and therefore limited range.
• A receiver cannot respond to more than one transmitted signal at a time and may be blocked by radio signals that
occur on or near their operating frequencies, regardless of code settings.
• Changes or modifications to the device may void FCC compliance.
• Infrequently used radio links should be tested regularly to protect against undetected interference or fault.
• A general knowledge of radio and its vagaries should be gained prior to acting as a wholesale distributor or dealer,
and these facts should be communicated to the ultimate users.
