Functioning of the Spectre/toilet
Calibration values
During calibration, the toilet will be flushed, and the Spectre will perform a sweep measurement (a measurement from low to high frequency).
Detection values (usage, air, clog)
When the toilet is used, the measured value changes and is interpreted by Buddy to detect usage and blockages.
Calibration dip frequency
-
Must be between 130 – 220 in order to have a functioning toilet.
-
If lower, clogging can’t be detected.
-
If higher, use can’t be detected.
Dip value
-
If 0: No communication between flush plate and Spectre. The logo should also be orange during a flush
-
If 255: Spectre not calibrated or unable to calibrate
Measured value
-
Is only used by IPEE engineering team.
-
This value drops when the water level rises and rises when the water level drops.
Functioning of the flush plate
Distance top sensor
-
Flush plate lights up while no one is present: check whether the measured distance is
lower than the distance indicated in the room settings. If not, change the room settings
to a value smaller than the measured distance. -
User interface of the flush plate changes color or enters cleaning mode: if the top
ToF wrongfully measures a distance <250 this can trigger cleaning mode. This can
indicate dirt in front of the sensor. Clean the flush plate.
Distance top sensor
-
Flush plate lights up while no one is present: check whether the measured distance is
lower than the distance indicated in the room settings. If not, change the room settings
to a value smaller than the measured distance. -
Flush plate performs an unwanted manual flush: if the bottom ToF wrongfully
measures a distance <250 this can trigger a manual flush. This can indicate dirt in
front of the sensor. Clean the flush plate.
