7. Installing the Floor Sensor
1. Place the included anti-slip
mat beside the bed, so that
one long edge goes slightly
beneath the bed.
3. If you are installing the
sensor to an out-going door,
the edges of the mat should be
taped to the floor so that sand
and small stones do not get
under the mat. Those will soon
punch the sensor electrodes
causing it to malfunction. The
tape should also prevent any
water, like melting snow in
winter conditions, getting
beneath the mat and causing
the sensor to detach.
Sand, dirt and rocks may damage the sensor causing it to stop functioning
properly. When taping the edges use tape that is water resistant. Tape should
be tough enough to withstand foot traffic, melting snow, etc.
