6.2.2 Response once the batteries have been
inserted
Once the batteries have been inserted, the device will
perform a self-test, which will take about two seconds.
Initialisation is carried out once the self-test has
finished. The LED test display will indicate that initiali-
sation is complete: the LED will light up red, green and
orange in that order, for half a second each!
If an error occurs, this is indicated by the LED flashing
red.
The device then sends a status message, which is
indicated by the device LED lighting up orange.
If the radio water sensor has been taught-in, the LED
will then flash red or green to indicate whether or not
the message has been received.
One long flash, two short
flashes, pause (repeated
twice)
One long flash, one short
flash, pause (continuous)
If the battery voltage is too low, the radio water sensor
will still be activated and made ready for operation,

Battery voltage
too low
Radio water sensor
is defective
provided that the voltage value permits it.
Depending on the particular load, it may be possible
to send transmissions again repeatedly, once the bat-
teries have been allowed a brief recovery period. If the
voltage drops too far again during transmission, the
corresponding error code will be displayed once more.
6.3 Teaching-in
Please read this entire section before starting
to carry out the teach-in procedure!
Before being able to use your device with
QIVICON, it has to be taught-in to your
QIVICON Home Base.
Therefore, please log-in to „My QIVICON" at
www.qivicon.com/login. There, please select
„Add device" and follow the instructions.
The radio water sensor can be used to control Home-
Matic actuators, such as radio switches. In order to do
this, a teach-in process must first be carried out. All
HomeMatic devices feature a teach-in button and a
device LED for this purpose. If the radio water sensor
is to be taught-in to a radio switch, for example, the
following procedure must be performed:
