Leak sensor help needed.

[EricK]

I had this posted in the leak sensor how to thread. With the leak sensor back in the kitchen the variable is still one. I have a spare leak sensor that I set up to put in the laundry room.

 

Hello,

I thought things with my leak sensor were ok, I had not received a notification for about 2 weeks. However, last night I received notification that the laundry leak sensor variable=3. I just looked in the admin console and the variable is 3. There was no entry for last run for the variable control 3 program.

There is good communication with the leak sensor. I kept it out of the laundry room for a while and had no problems. I placed it back in the laundry room a few days ago, not quite behind the washing machine, with an AP plugged in a few feet away. It is possible that this was three days ago, so by the time 26 hours passed for the variable to get to 3, then for the notification to come (I have it set to send at 6pm), that placing the leak sensor back in the laundry room coincided with the problem.

I am trying to understand the cause of this problem. It seems that the only way for the variable =3 is for the variable control 3 program not to run for 26 hours, then to run to get the then to set the variable to 3. Is there a communication drop with the device so the communication does not run.

I made a patch program to set the variable to 1.

I have a spare leak sensor so I may swap devices.

Thanks,

Eric

Does the problem recur if you disable the patch program? What does the Administrative Console indicate as the current state of the heartbeat?

Stu,

I posted in the leak sensor program thread:

I did find an error in my program.

Thank you for replying, as usual.
