Updated October 18, 2019
Miniature wireless detector LeaksProtect detects a minimal leakage,
allowing for timely response and elimination of the problem.
LeaksProtect operates within the Ajax security system, by connecting via
the protected Jeweller protocol to the hub. The communication range is up to
1300 meters if there are no obstacles. In addition, the detector can be used
as part of third-party security central units due to the uartBridge or ocBridge
Plus integration module.
The detector is set up via a mobile application for iOS and Android-based
smartphones. The user is notified of all events through push notifications,
SMS messages and calls (if activated).
The Ajax security system is self-sustaining, but the user can connect it to
the central monitoring station of a private security company.

LeaksProtect Operating Principle
LeaksProtect has contacts at the bottom of its body, sensitive to water
leakage – if at least one contact pair gets wet, the detector will immediately
transmit an alarm signal to the hub, notifying the user and private security
company. Besides, the detector will notify that the location is already dry.
The detector is always in active mode and sends an alarm irrespective of the system status:
disarmed or armed.
When detecting water leakage, LeaksProtect gives one notification, and the
next alarm is emitted by the detector only after the contacts have dried out
and gotten wet again.
Connecting the Detector to the Ajax
Security System
Detector Connection to hub
Before starting connection:
1. Following the hub instruction recommendations, install the Ajax
application on your smartphone. Create an account, add the hub to the
application, and create at least one room.
2. Go to the Ajax application.
3. Switch on the hub and check the internet connection (via Ethernet cable
and/or GSM network).
4. Ensure that the hub is disarmed and does not start updates by checking its
status in the mobile application.
Only users with administrative privileges can add the device to the hub.
How to connect the detector to the hub:
1. Select the Add Device option in the Ajax application.
2. Name the device, scan/write manually the QR Code (located on the body
and packaging), and select the location room.
3. Select Add — the countdown will begin.
4. Switch on the device.
The detector has a stiff “On” button — press down firmly to switch it on.
For the detection and interfacing to occur, the device should be located
within the coverage area of the wireless network of the hub (at a single
protected object).
Request for connection to the hub is transmitted for a short time at the time
of switching on the device.
If the connection to the hub failed LeaksProtect will switch off after 6
seconds. To retry the connection, you do not need to turn off the device. If
LeaksProtect was already assigned to another hub, switch it off, then
perform the standard adding procedure.
The detector connected to the hub will appear in the list of devices of the
hub in the application. Update of the detector statuses in the list depends
on the device inquiry time set in the hub settings, with the default value –
36 seconds.
Connecting the Detector to Third Party Security Systems
To connect the detector to a third party security central unit using
the uartBridge or ocBridge Plus integration module, follow the
recommendations in the manual of the respective device.
The detector always operates in the active mode. When connecting
LeaksProtect to third-party security systems, it is appropriate to place the
detector in a permanently active protection zone.

Functionality Testing
The Ajax security system allows conducting tests for checking the
functionality of connected devices.
The tests do not start straight away but within a period of 36 seconds when
using the standard settings. The test time start depends on the settings of
the detector scanning period (the paragraph on “Jeweller” settings in hub
settings).
Signal Strength Test
Attenuation Test
Selection of the Detector Location
Location of the detector determines its remoteness from the hub (up to
1300 meters) and absence of any obstacles between the devices hindering
the radio signal transmission: walls, inserted floors, large-size objects
located within the room.
Check the signal level at the installation location
If the signal level is one division, we cannot guarantee stable operation of
the security system. Take possible measures to improve the quality of the
signal! As a minimum, move the device – even 20 cm shift can significantly
improve the quality of reception.
If, after moving, the device still has a low or unstable signal strength, use a
radio signal range extender ReX.
The sensor should be placed in the place of probable water leakage from
the water supply, heating, sewage systems: on the floor under the
bathroom, under the washbasin, under the washing machine, etc.
Do not install the detector:
outside the premises (outdoors);
nearby any metal objects or mirrors causing attenuation and screening of
the signal;
within any premises with the temperature beyond the range of permissible
limit;
on conductive surfaces;
closer than 1 m from the hub.
Detector Testing
When the detector contacts are exposed to liquid, the resistance between
them drops. To activate the alarm, it is sufficient that at least one contact
pair of LeaksProtect is closed.
1. To check the flood detector, close the contact pair with a wet finger for 3
seconds (the delay will prevent any false actuation). If water is detected,
the detector LED will light up red for 1 second.
2. Wipe the contacts with a dry napkin – when the detector detects that the
flood has ceased, it will also switch on the red LED for 1 second.
If you drown the detector with soapy water, it may continue signal flooding
after getting dry. The issue is about the soapy film closing the contacts. To
eliminate the problem, wipe the detector contacts with a napkin moistened
with pure water and then dry them up.
Detector Maintenance and Battery
Replacement
Check the operational capability of the LeaksProtect detector on a regular
basis. We recommend cleaning the sensor contacts as it gets dirty, at least,
once per 2-3 months. Use an alcohol solution for cleaning.
Clean the detector body from dust, spider web and other contaminations as
they appear – they can conduct electricity and cause false actuation. Use
soft dry napkin suitable for equipment maintenance.
Do not use for cleaning any substances containing alcohol, acetone,
gasoline and other active solvents.
The batteries installed in the detector ensure up to 5 years of autonomous
operation on the average (with the inquiry frequency by the hub of 1
minutes). If the detector batteries are discharged, the security system will
send respective notices and the detector LED will smoothly light up and go
out green every hour, if the device is actuated.
