5.2 Setting Up Alarms and Notifications

To receive notifications when the liquid level reaches a specific state (e.g., full or low), you need to create a "scene" in the app:

1. Return to the app's home page.
2. Click on the "Scene" tab (usually at the bottom of the screen).
3. Click "When device status changes".
4. Select your TLC2206 sensor.
5. Choose the option to alarm (e.g., "Low alarm" or "Full alarm").

7. Select "Send notification".
8. Choose "Message Center" for in-app push notifications. (Note: Phone call or SMS reminders may be a paid feature of the Tuya platform).
9. Click "Next" and then "Save".
10. Enter a scene name (e.g., "Low Water Alert") and confirm.

When the liquid level reaches the alarm state set in the scene, a pop-up message will remind you.

5.3 Historique des données

The app displays a graph table that updates the average liquid level every half hour. If the data does not appear to update, return to the APP homepage and pull down to refresh the screen.

6. Entretien

• Regularly inspect the sensor unit for any debris or buildup that might obstruct the ultrasonic signal. Clean the sensor surface gently with a soft, damp tissu.
• Vérifiez que l'adaptateur secteur et le câble ne sont pas endommagés et sont correctement connectés.
