HS-LS100+ Z-Wave Leak Sensor

OVERVIEW HS-LS100+ is a compact, easy to install leak sensor. It is designed to control other Z-Wave devices directly
or it may be used with a variety of Z-Wave certified home controllers to launch automation events or scenes.

Applications

• Use to activate Z-Wave devices such as sirens or water valve controllers when a leak is sensed.

• Use to trigger home automation events (aka “scenes”, “automations” or “robots”) when a leak is sensed.

Configuration

HS-LS100+ is battery powered and includes a Z-Wave network button, LED indicator and a magnetic wall
mount/wired probe assembly. The unit may be deployed as a free-standing sensor (using built-in probes) or as a
wired remote sensor (via the wall mount/wired probe assembly).

Z-Wave Network Installation Remove the back cover by rotating counter-clockwise and install 1 ER14250 battery
(included) inside HS-LS100+. Include the sensor into your Z-Wave network using the instructions below. Then,
replace the back cover. Use the instructions below to include or exclude HS-LS100+ to/from your Z-Wave network.
Inclusion (recommended if your home controller supports “S0” or “S2” Z-Wave encryption)

1. Put your home controller into Z-Wave ‘inclusion’ mode.

2. Quickly triple-press the Z-Wave network button, then release it. Wait for the inclusion process to finish.

Exclusion

1. Put your home automation controller into Z-Wave ‘exclusion’ mode.

2. Quickly triple-press the Z-Wave network button. Wait for the exclusion process to finish.

Reset (Use this procedure to reset HS-LS100+ to factory settings when the Z-Wave controller is missing or
inoperable).

1. Press and hold the Z-Wave button for 20 seconds. Release the button once the LED stops blinking and glows
solidly.

Physical Installation
Free-standing installation: Simply place the leak sensor on a flat horizontal surface in the area where a leak might

occur.
Remote installation: Install the included magnetic wall mount/wired probe assembly in the location of your choice
(using the supplied mounting hardware) and attach the HS-LS100+ to it by aligning the 3 probes with the 3 holes in
the mounting bracket. Position and install the wired probe in the area where a leak might occur or where you wish
to detect liquid.
Leak Sensor Operation
HS-LS100+ is designed to transmit a Z-Wave command when liquid is sensed. It will also transmit another command
when liquid is no longer sensed.
Shock Sensor Operation
The shock sensor is designed to transmit a Z-Wave command when HS-LS100+ has been physically moved. This
sensor is especially helpful in determining whether the unit has been removed from its mount or tampered with.

Battery Sensor Operation
The battery sensor is designed to report battery level with a Z-Wave command every 43200 seconds (12 hours). If

desired, HomeSeer users can adjust this interval (0-2678400 seconds) by accessing the settings on the Z-Wave tab of
the root device. Note: battery sensor operation is disabled on units that are line powered.
Z-Wave Association Information
HS-LS100+ supports Group 2 association. Group 1 reports the sensor’s status and battery if running on batteries.

Group 2 is assigned to send BASIC SET command.

Notification

a. When the Overheat detected, send Heat Alarm (04) and Overheat detected, Unknown
Location(0x02);
b. When Under heat detected, send Heat Alarm (04) and under heat detected, Unknown
Location(0x06);
c. When Water leak detected, send Water Alarm (05) and Water leak detected, Unknown
Location(0x02);
d. When Tampering detected, send Home Security (07) Tampering, Product covering
removed(0x03);

Notes

• If your home controller supports “S2” security encryption, the Leak Sensor may be added as a ‘secure’ device to

your network. This will not effect the functionality of the unit.
