1 General Description
The wireless flood detector is a fully supervised detector used to
detect the presence of water based liquids at any desired location
such as basements or water tanks.
The detector is comprised from 2 parts: Wireless transmitter and
flood sensor which are connected by 2.4m cable.
The detector operates with RISCO Group's programmable wireless
receivers.
2 LED Indication
On: The LED turns on each time the detector transmits (alarm,
tamper or supervision). Blink: Low battery condition. The LED will
blink on each transmission.
3 Quick Device Allocation at the Control Panel
The detector is automatically programmed to your control panel
during the on-line installation wizard setup. If you later purchase an
extra detector you can enroll it as follows:
To quickly allocate the detector at the control panel:
If the control panel is not already in Learn mode, press the
button on the control panel for 5 seconds; the unit beeps once
as it enters Learn mode (all the LEDs also light up, one after the
other).
Remove the plastic wrapping from the batteries before installation
and make sure the cover is removed so the internal tamper switch is
accessible.
Send a signal transmission from the detector by pressing the tamper
button for at least 2 seconds; the control panel beeps once to accept
or beeps three times to reject. Once accepted, the system
announces the device type and its zone (for example, “Detector,
zone 1”).
When the detectors have been enrolled, short-press the control
panel button to exit Learn mode; the unit beeps once and the
LEDs stop flashing.
Note: For future use, it is recommended to write down the detector
description, zone number, and installation location of each allocated
detector.
4 Installation
Select a mounting location that is suitable both for the transmitter
and the flood sensor as follows:
Transmitter Mounting Location:
•
Place the transmitter at the highest possible position to improve
communication and prevent from coming wet in the event of
flooding.
•
Test the transmitter's communication quality by generating an
alarm and verifying that the receiver has received it. If the alarm
signal is not detected, reposition the transmitter and try again.
Flood Sensor Mounting location:
The flood sensor should be placed in a position where water will
accumulate rapidly in an event of flooding.
After selecting the mounting location:
1. Attach the flood sensor in horizontal position near the floor with
using the double-sided adhesive.
2. Secure the flood sensor cable to the wall. (Note: It is
recommended to place the flood sensor cable inside metal or
plastic pipe).
