I just got 2 Ecolink Zwave Flood/Freeze sensors.  The include via zwave with no issue.  When I go to test them by creating a wet zone filling a tub up with water and the sensor getting submerged, the sensors do not change states.  I have removed and added several times with the same issue.  Anyone have these and able to make them work?  Below are the different zwave zones that are added for each sensor:

Notify Sensor - battery level

Water Deteced - status on/off

Freeze Alarm - status on/off

Water Alarm - water alarm idle

Lead Detected Alarm - status on/off

Level Drop Alarm - status on/off

Home Security Alarm - home security idle

Tamper Alarm - status on/off

Do you have a large Zwave network that reaches your test location?

I would test near the ISY by using a paper clip (or similar) to short across the leads.  (or damp paper towel)

I have a related problem with these Ecolink sensors.  I have one on a water heater in an unheated closet and the Freeze Alarm notification came but it would not clear for over three weeks.  Ecolink suggested trying to use a water test to activate the  water notification and that notification came but now I have the LEAK DETECTED ALARM and the LEVEL DROP ALARM with showing on and I have not been able to clear them.  I've tried excluding them and re-adding them and removing the battery but no success.  After three weeks, I did try a program to wake the sensor and then query the Notify Sensor and it cleared the FREEZE ALARM, but, I don't know if the query worked on the device cleared on it own.

Does anyone know how to clear the notifications on these devices?  I have not gotten an answer from Ecolink.  it doesn't do any good if the FREEZE ALARM only works one time.
