Option 1 (Wi-Fi reset): Remove the batteries, wait thirty seconds, re-install
the batteries.
Option 2 (Full device reset): Using a metal screwdriver or paper clip apply
a direct short to the two metal contacts on the bottom of the device three
times within two seconds(See Figure 6.2).
Either of these methods will reset the device and cause it to
automatically search for a Wi-Fi connection. NOTE: Because
the device only searches for Wi-Fi connections for 5 minutes,
it is best to FIRST have the steps completed as outlined
at the top of section 6 before powering or resetting the device.
See Section 6.1 to begin Wi-Fi enrollment.

7. Operation and Testing
Operation
The detector is operating once it is activated and testing is complete. When water or freeze conditions are
detected the unit sounds a loud alarm (See Section 1 for alarm signal descriptions). In an alarm condition, the
device will sound for a specified amount of time (Alarm Duration) and then will stop alarming to save battery
power. After a specified period of silence (Battery Conserve), the device will alarm again.
