WATER LEAK SENSOR MANAGEMENT METHOD, WATER LEAK SENSOR PERFORMING THE SAME AND STORAGE MEDIA STORING THE SAME
First Claim
1. A method for managing a water leak sensor coupled to a pipe, the method comprising:
- detecting an operation time of the water leak sensor that is in a sleep mode;
causing the water leak sensor to change from the sleep mode to a standby mode according to the detected operation time;
detecting a sensor measuring procedure when the water leak sensor changes to the standby mode;
performing an operation for a transceiving component of the water leak sensor based on the detected sensor measuring procedure; and
determining whether the water leak sensor receives an external command or changes from the standby mode into an operation mode based on the detected sensor measuring procedure.

Abstract
A water leak sensor management method includes a water leak sensor being installed in a underground pipe. The method includes detecting an operation time of the water leak sensor through a timer in a sleep mode, changing the sleep mode into a standby mode in the operation time of the water leak sensor to detect a sensor measuring procedure, and performing an operation for a transceiving component of the water leak sensor and determining whether the water leak sensor receives an external command or changes the standby mode into an operation mode based on the sensor measuring procedure.
