Using your computer and the Wireless System Controller, you locally manage your home environment with the Motorola homesight software. When configured, the system can notify you of any new events by sending an e-mail when your Water Sensor detects an event. An event is defined as a change from a wet or dry state where the tip of the water sensor probe is located.
Installation Overview Installing your sensor is a simple process. Locate the antenna and screw it into the top-right corner of the sensor, just above the air vents, until it is secure. Note: Sharp objects should be stored out of reach of children to prevent injury. Insert the batteries.

Please consider the following points when mounting the sensor: • The homesight Wireless Water Sensor is constructed of UV-resistant ABS plastic. Do not install the sensor where it is subjected directly to the elements. • This device’s communication range is up to 60 ft (18 m) from the Wireless System Controller in a typical home, depending on the number of obstacles.

Wall Mount Drilling Template Mounting tools: Screwdriver, electric drill, or awl. On hard surfaces, Motorola recommends that you pre-drill ½-inch-deep pilot holes with a drill bit slightly smaller than the bracket mounting screws before securing the bracket to the surface. When mounting a sensor on soft surfaces like sheetrock, use an awl to punch holes in the material slightly smaller than the plastic anchors included in the hardware mounting kit.

The battery is expected to last up to 12 months. This depends on actual use and how often the sensor is triggered. The Motorola Water Sensor includes a battery saving feature that causes the sensor to hibernate when there is no activity and wake up when the sensor is triggered.
