LDK

Hi guys,

I'm.new to apex and was trying to add ldk module to my apex el. First I added the module in task it found it I selected two sensors and it configured it. Now I keep getting alarms and have no clue what it means and when I test the sensor by placing it in water nothing happens im going to attack a picture.

Can we see your programming? Go to the module and configure it as an advanced so we can see the lines of code.

I don’t see advance anywhere

Looks like you're getting those alerts because the Apex is reading at least one of your leak detectors as CLOSED (wet).
First, make sure that the detector jacks are pushed firmly all the way in to the FMM ports. Not having them all the way in can lead to errors like this.
If that doesn't fix it, make sure your leak detectors aren't sitting on bare concrete, which can sometimes give false positives.
If a dry concrete floor is giving false positives, put a small piece of dry paper towel under each sensor, that should fix it.
Next thing you could try is, in the diagram you posted above, uncheck 'Use auto detection' for both ports, set them to Water on Floor Sensor directly, and upload to Apex.

Thanks for the tips. Currently the sensors are on laminate floor but my issue is when I place the sensor in standing water I get no alerts.

Well, that's different. Does the switch tile say CLOSED when the sensor gets wet?
If so then the sensor itself is working.

If you'd like, I would be happy to take a look at your current code. Might be something simple.
If you give me temporary 'view' access to your system and let me know, I'll take a look and report back.
