5: Adding to Z-Wave network Adding (Inclusion) – Z-Wave device learning mode, allowing to add the device to existing Z-Wave network. 5.1: Adding manually To add the device to the Z-Wave network manually: 1. Power the device. 2. Set the main controller in (Security/non-Security Mode) add mode (see the controller’s manual). 3. Quickly, three times click the button. 4. If you are adding in Security S2 Authenticated, scan the DSK QR code or input the underlined part of the DSK (on the device label). 5.
6: Removing from Z-Wave network Removing (Exclusion) – Z-Wave device learning mode, allowing to remove the device from existing Z-Wave network. Removing also results in resetting the device to factory defaults. To remove the device from the Z-Wave network: 1. Power the device. 2. Set the main controller into remove mode (see the controller’s manual). 3. Quickly, three times click the button. 4. LED will start blinking yellow, wait for the removing process to end. 5.
7: Operating the device 7.1: Controlling the device using connected switches Controlling connected loads Input can control output only with the same number (e.g. switch connected to IN1 controls load connected to output OUT1).
• 3 red blinks – entering the menu (not added to a Z-Wave network) • Green – reset energy consumption memory • Magenta – start range test • Yellow – reset to factory defaults 7.3: Menu Menu allows to perform Z-Wave network actions. In order to use the menu: 1. Press and hold the button to enter the menu, device blinks to signal adding status (see 7.2: Visual indications). 2.
8: Z-Wave range test The device has a built in Z-Wave network main controller’s range tester. To make Z-Wave range test possible, the device must be added to the Z-Wave controller. Testing may stress the network, so it is recommended to perform the test only in special cases. i To test the main controller’s range: 1. Press and hold the button to enter the menu. 2. Release button when the device glows magenta. 3. Quickly click the button to confirm. 4.
9: Activating scenes The device can activate scenes in the Z-Wave controller by sending scene ID and attribute of a specific action using Central Scene Command Class. In order for this functionality to work, connect monostable or bistable switch to the IN1-IN4 inputs and set parameters 20-23 to 3, 4 or 5 (depending on type of switch). By default scenes are not activated, set parameters 40-43 to enable scene activation for selected inputs and actions.
10: Configuration 10.1: Associations Association (linking devices) - direct control of other devices within the Z-Wave system network e.g. Dimmer, Relay Switch, Roller Shutter or scene (may be controlled only through a Z-Wave controller). Association ensures direct transfer of control commands between devices, is performed without participation of the main controller and requires associated device to be in the direct range.
10.2: Advanced parameters The device allows to customize its operation to user’s needs using configurable parameters. The settings can be adjusted via Z-Wave controller to which the device is added. The way of adjusting them might differ depending on the controller. In the FIBARO interface parameters are presented as simple options in Advanced Settings of the device. Available parameters: 1.
