4. Bedienung
4.1 Erkennungsmodi
The detector offers three detection methods:
- Water Leak Detection (Default): The two probes on the back of the alarm detect water. When water bridges these probes, the alarm triggers.
- Tropferkennung: A probe on the front of the alarm is designed to detect small drips. Place it directly under a potential drip source.
- Wasserstandsüberwachung: Use the included 105cm external detection cable with two probes to monitor specific water levels. Connect the cable to the detector to activate this mode.
Abbildung 4.1: Three usage options for the water immersion alarm. This includes hanging the external probe, placing the unit on the ground to detect leaks from the back sensors, or placing it to detect drips from the front sensor.
4.2 Alarmfunktion
When water is detected by any of the sensors, the device will:
- Emit a loud 100dB audible alarm for 60 seconds.
- Send instant notifications to your smartphone via the Tuya Smart app.
