Follow these steps:
1. In Fusion, go to the list of Modules, then click your FMM module to get to its configuration screen. Verify each of the 4 FMM ports are properly detecting the correct sensor type you have plugged in on each port:
2. If any particular port is not correctly detecting the type of sensor, verify the sensor plug is fully inserted in the socket. Give it one more push to see if it clicks into place.
3. Go into the System View, then click your FMM to expand it to show each sensor. From there, click the gear on each sensor to go to the configuration screen for that sensor, then rename each one so the names are more descriptive. This will make your programming easier to decipher. These names are limited to 6 characters, so you'll need to be creative with abbreviations.
Pay attention to the Location description on the configuration screen to confirm you're working with the sensor on the correct port:
4. Add the appropriate lines of code to your EmailAlm program to notify you when there's a leak:
[EmailAlm]
Set OFF
If Leak1 CLOSED Then ON
If Leak2 CLOSED Then ON
5. Be sure to read my Apex Alarms tutorial to ensure your alarm notifications are configured properly and so you understand the priority of alarm conditions:

6. Make sure you place your leak sensors on a layer of paper towel to avoid false alarms due to simple condensation or certain surface textures. In the event of a real leak, the paper towel will saturate and trigger the alarm.
