Fog and mist will not harm the remote but direct precipitation must be
avoided.
Note: Exposing the remote case to extreme humidity may temporarily
disrupt data. The remote case reads humidity, but should not be submerged
in water.
Select a location within 0 ft. to 200 ft. range of the control tower/gateway.
See important setup and operation section for range information.
Floor sensor/probe and reed sensor
Important: The floor sensor/probe and reed sensor are not for use in a
pool or hot tub where chemicals may cause malfunction.
Floor sensor/probe and reed sensor need to be within reach of the wireless
remote
CONFIRM CONNECTION BEFORE INSTALLING SENSOR
IMPORTANT: Before permanently installing a sensor/probeTest the
sensor/probe in the desired mounting location for at least 1 hour to
confirm good reception. Confirm consistent readings on your account app
before permanently mounting. Move the sensor /probe closer to the control
tower/gateway if the signal is lost or not received.
Mount the sensor/probe only aft.er the activation process
(see SETUP AND ACTIVATION”).
- MOUNT TO WALL WITH SCREWS
- FREE STANDING
1. Remove the mounting bracket from the remote.
2. Place bracket over the desired location then make sure you
have enough sensor wire to reach desired remote location.
3. Mark mounting surface with a pencil through the 2 holes of

dish washer etc. to monitor for leaks.
FLOOR: Place the floor sensor/probe (circuit board
down) on the dry floor within range of the wireless
remote that is mounted on the wall or standing on a
table. Note: The floor sensor/probe will sit 1/8 inch from
the floor in this position.
WALL: Place the floor sensor/probe against the wall
with the edge touching the floor within range of the
wireless remote that is mounted on the wall or standing on
a table.
The floor sensor/probe can be secured to the floor or
wall with the included screws & anchors or with two-
sided tape (not included).
Secure the 6 ft.. sensor/probe cable to avoid tripping hazards:
Loosely coil and secure the extra cable with a twist tie.
- CLEANING THE FLOOR SENSOR/PROBE
Routine cleaning of the floor sensor/probe is recommended to ensure proper
operation. Use clean water and a soft. cloth to clean dirt and debris from the
circuit board of the floor sensor. Note: When using two-sided tape, replace
