Flood Sensor - Spot (RMA-FS2-SEN)
Step 2: Connect the battery.
Your Flood Sensor - Spot comes with a 9V alkaline
battery inserted into the retainer clip under the
housing.
Push the snap connector completely on to
the battery contacts. The snap connector
arrives partially off to prevent the battery from
discharging while it's stored and shipped.
Use only alkaline batteries in your sensor, and
replace the battery at least once a year. If your
Flood Sensor - Spot gets activated often, you may
need to replace it sooner.
Step 3: Mount your Flood Sensor - Spot.
1. Place your Flood Sensor - Spot on a flat surface in the area most prone to collect water.
2. You may simply rest the unit on its feet or remove the backing on the pads to stick it
to the surface. In either case, keep the feet on the unit: they create a gap necessary to
allow water to get to the contacts. If you remove them, the housing and surface may
form a seal, and water won't reach the contacts until it's risen up the sides or over the
top.
Step 4: Connect your Flood Sensor - Spot to Room Alert.
Do not connect the switch sensor inputs (dry contacts) on AVTECH products to any live
circuit.
Use only low-voltage 2-wire cable to connect switch sensor inputs.
Your sensor comes with one end of a 25' low-voltage 2-wire cable
already attached. The leads are non-polarized. Follow these steps
to attach the other end to a switch port on your Room Alert:
1. Separate and strip the leads on the free end of the speaker
cable, exposing about ¼" of wire.
2. Run the speaker cable back to your Room Alert. Try to avoid running it near large
electromagnetic devices or fluorescent lights, which produce EMI and can interfere with
sensor readings.
3. Connect the free ends (the 1/4" leads) of the speaker cable to an
open switch port on your Room Alert. Be sure the bare wire, not the
insulation, connects to the port. Again, the leads are non-polarized,
so you may connect either lead to either side of the open port.
