If the sensor is mounted correctly, check to confirm there is nothing behind the sensor that
could interfere with the infrared sensors. This could be debris, battery labels, or something
else.
If in doubt, Eagle Eye provides a template that can be used to identify if something on the jar
is blocking the infrared sensors.
If there are any issues with how the sensor is mounted, re-install the sensor using a new
cradle.
4.2 Confirm Proper Measurement Mode
The ELM has two measurement modes: lead acid and nickel cadmium (NiCad). From the factory all
ELM sensors ship in lead acid mode. If the ELM is in the wrong mode, it could cause false alarms.
As of Vigilant version 1.3.11, verification and setting of modes must be done at the ELM sensor,
not from the web-interface. These steps must be done for each sensor, not just one.
1. Press and hold the RS button for 2 seconds (until the light is solid).
2. If in NiCad mode, the LEDs will respond as follows:
No Fault: Flashing green
Level: Solid red
Temp: Off
3. If in lead-acid mode, the LEDs will respond as follows:
