- Once in inclusion mode, press and release the Z-Wave button quickly 6-7 TIMES to ensure the command has gone through
- Put your controller in EXCLUSION mode. Press and release the Z-Wave button quickly 3 TIMES, and then try adding the sensor to your network again
- You may need to change the device type manually if the sensor is not recognized correctly (email us for more info: [email protected])
- Make sure the Water Sensor is powered on and located within direct range of your Z-Wave gateway controller
- Put your Z-Wave controller in exclusion mode
- Press and release the Z-Wave button 3 TIMES quickly. The LED indicator will flash quickly
- The Water Sensor should disappear from your controller's device list
If the first attempt is unsuccessful, please repeat the process following all steps carefully
The ZSE30 does not permanently listen for messages sent from the controller - it will periodically wake up automatically to check if the controller has messages to send, but will sleep most of the time to conserve battery life. The wakeup period can be configured in the user interface - it is advisable not to make this too short as it will impact battery life - a reasonable compromise is 1 hour.
The wakeup period does not impact the devices ability to report events or sensor data. The device can be manually woken with a button press on the device as described below - note that triggering a device to send an event is not the same as a wakeup notification, and this will not allow the controller to communicate with the device.
If you change settings and parameters for the sensor, you may need to wake it up manually for the changes to be recorded. Press and release the Z-Wave button THREE TIMES to wake the device up. The LED indicator will flash ONCE. The sensor’s wake-up interval is set to 12 hours by default to save battery life. Though not recommended, you can change the wake-up interval using your controller’s advanced settings if available. Minimum value: 300s (5 minutes), maximum value: 16,777,200s (around 194 days). Accepted values need to match minute intervals, so 300, 360, 420, etc
The following table summarises the channels available for the ZSE30 -:

Indicates if a sensor has triggered.
The sensor_binary channel is of type sensor_binary and supports the Switch item. This is a read only channel so will only be updated following state changes from the device.
The following state translation is provided for this channel to the Switch item type -:
| Value | Label |
|---|---|
| ON | Triggered |
| OFF | Untriggered |
Indicates if the flood alarm is triggered.
The alarm_flood channel is of type alarm_flood and supports the Switch item and is in the Water category. This is a read only channel so will only be updated following state changes from the device.
The following state translation is provided for this channel to the Switch item type -:
| Value | Label |
|---|---|
| OFF | OK |
| ON | Alarm |
Represents the battery level as a percentage (0-100%). Bindings for things supporting battery level in a different format (e.g. 4 levels) should convert to a percentage to provide a consistent battery level reading.
The system.battery-level channel is of type system.battery-level and supports the Number item and is in the Battery category.
This channel provides the battery level as a percentage and also reflects the low battery warning state. If the battery state is in low battery warning state, this will read 0%.

Total duration of audio and visual alarm when water is detected. Use this parameter to set the total duration of audio and visual alarm each time water is detected. If the value is set to 0, the alarm will continue until water is no longer detected. Use parameters 2 – 4 to customize the alarm. Values in the range 0 to 255 may be set.
The manufacturer defined default value is 120.
This parameter has the configuration ID config_1_1 and is of type INTEGER.
Interval length between beeps Set the beeping frequency for the sensor’s audio alarm. The interval between beeps can be as low as 1 minute. Values in the range 1 to 255 may be set.
The manufacturer defined default value is 1.
This parameter has the configuration ID config_2_1 and is of type INTEGER.
Duration of First Beep Adjust the duration of the initial sound the alarm will produce after a leak is detected. Values in the range 10 to 255 may be set.
The manufacturer defined default value is 60.
This parameter has the configuration ID config_3_1 and is of type INTEGER.
Beep Duration after first Beep Adjust the duration of the beeps the alarm will sound after a leak is detected and the first “long” beep is produced. Values in the range 5 to 255 may be set.
The manufacturer defined default value is 5.
This parameter has the configuration ID config_4_1 and is of type INTEGER.
Visual alarm will NOT be disabled Enable or disable the audio alarm by adjusting these parameter settings. The visual alarm will NOT be disabled and the LED indicator will always light up each time water is detected.
Values: 0 – alarm disabled; 1 – alarm enabled (default setting). Values in the range 0 to 1 may be set.
The manufacturer defined default value is 1.
This parameter has the configuration ID config_5_1 and is of type INTEGER.
Enable/Disable Water Detection Enable or disable water detection for the sensor by adjusting these parameter settings. Values: 0 – sensor disabled; 1 – sensor enabled (default setting). Values in the range 0 to 1 may be set.
The manufacturer defined default value is 1.
This parameter has the configuration ID config_6_1 and is of type INTEGER.
Send command to associated device. You can choose if your Water Sensor turns an associated device on or off when sending the basic set command. Use value 0 to turn the associated device OFF and value 255 to turn it ON. Adjust brightness level for a Z-Wave dimmer (Multilevel switch) by putting in any value between 1 and 99. Values: 0 – OFF; 1 – 99 (% of light); 255 – ON (default). Values in the range 0 to 255 may be set.
The manufacturer defined default value is 255.
This parameter has the configuration ID config_7_1 and is of type INTEGER.
The wakeup interval sets the period at which the device will listen for messages from the controller. This is required for battery devices that sleep most of the time in order to conserve battery life. The device will wake up at this interval and send a message to the controller to tell it that it can accept messages - after a few seconds, it will go back to sleep if there is no further communications.
This setting is defined in seconds. It is advisable not to set this interval too short or it could impact battery life. A period of 1 hour (3600 seconds) is suitable in most instances.
Note that this setting does not affect the devices ability to send sensor data, or notification events.
This parameter has the configuration ID wakeup_interval and is of type INTEGER.
When sleeping devices wake up, they send a notification to a listening device. Normally, this device is the network controller, and normally the controller will set this automatically to its own address. In the event that the network contains multiple controllers, it may be necessary to configure this to a node that is not the main controller. This is an advanced setting and should not be changed without a full understanding of the impact.
This parameter has the configuration ID wakeup_node and is of type INTEGER.
Association groups allow the device to send unsolicited reports to the controller, or other devices in the network. Using association groups can allow you to eliminate polling, providing instant feedback of a device state change without unnecessary network traffic.
The ZSE30 supports 4 association groups.
The Lifeline association group reports device status to a hub and is not designed to control other devices directly. When using the Lineline group with a hub, in most cases, only the lifeline group will need to be configured and normally the hub will perform this automatically during the device initialisation. Group 1 for lifeline communication of water leak detection to Z-Wave controller. Supported command classes:
- NOTIFICATION_REPORT_V4
- BATTERY_REPORT
- SENSOR_BINARY_REPORT_V2
- DEVICE_RESET_LOCALLY_NOTIFICATION
Association group 1 supports 5 nodes.
Group 2 for control command communication to associated Z-Wave devices in the network. Use parameter 7 to configure this group’s settings. Supported command classes: BASIC_SET
Association group 2 supports 5 nodes.
Group 3 for notifications to Z-Wave devices associated in this group. Supported command classes: NOTIFICATION_REPORT_V4
Association group 3 supports 5 nodes.
Group 4 for notifications to Z-Wave devices associated in this group. Supported command classes: SENSOR_BINARY_REPORT_V2
Association group 4 supports 5 nodes.
