Z-Wave is the international wireless protocol for communication in the Smart Home. This device is suited for use in the region mentioned in the Quickstart section.
Z-Wave ensures a reliable communication by reconfirming every message (two-way communication) and every mains powered node can act as a repeater for other nodes (meshed network) in case the receiver is not in direct wireless range of the transmitter.
This device and every other certified Z-Wave device can be used together with any other certified Z-Wave device regardless of brand and origin as long as both are suited for the same frequency range.
If a device supports secure communication it will communicate with other devices secure as long as this device provides the same or a higher level of security. Otherwise it will automatically turn into a lower level of security to maintain backward compatibility.
For more information about Z-Wave technology, devices, white papers etc. please refer to www.z-wave.info.
The ABUS Z-Wave indoor siren offers more than the loud alarm with 100dB in case of alarm. An additional speaker can play voice messages that provide understandable information about events or status changes of the Z-Wave Gateway. Frequently used notifications are pre-installed, e.g. notifications about activations or deactivations of the security system. Individual notifications can also be transferred to the siren via USB cable and triggered via a Z-Wave gateway. The siren has tamper protection and is battery operated. The integrated hygrometer provides sensor values for building automation and thus, for example, the heating behaviour can be controlled depending on the temperature and humidity. Firmware updates can be conveniently uploaded over the air (OTA) and numerous configuration parameters allow individual adjustments, e.g. the duration of the alarm.
Please read the user manual before installing the product.
In order to include (add) a Z-Wave device to a network it must be in factory default state. Please make sure to reset the device into factory default. You can do this by performing an Exclusion operation as described below in the manual. Every Z-Wave controller is able to perform this operation however it is recommended to use the primary controller of the previous network to make sure the very device is excluded properly from this network.
On factory default the device does not belong to any Z-Wave network. The device needs to be added to an existing wireless network to communicate with the devices of this network. This process is called Inclusion.
Devices can also be removed from a network. This process is called Exclusion. Both processes are initiated by the primary controller of the Z-Wave network. This controller is turned into exclusion respective inclusion mode. Inclusion and Exclusion is then performed doing a special manual action right on the device.
Here are a few hints for network installation if things dont work as expected.
Z-Wave devices control other Z-Wave devices. The relationship between one device controlling another device is called association. In order to control a different device, the controlling device needs to maintain a list of devices that will receive controlling commands. These lists are called association groups and they are always related to certain events (e.g. button pressed, sensor triggers, ...). In case the event happens all devices stored in the respective association group will receive the same wireless command wireless command, typically a 'Basic Set' Command.
Group Number | Maximum Nodes | Description |
---|---|---|
1 | 5 | When the device is supplied with power for the first time or the sabotage contact is triggered, the device sends a notification report to the node of group 1.If the battery level falls below a certain threshold, the device sends a battery report to the node of group 1.When a factory reset is performed, the device sends a Reset Locally Notification to the node of group 1.If the status of the siren changes (Piezo Alarm On/Off), the device sends a Switch Binary Report to the node of group 1.The device sends a multilevel sensor report with temperature and humidity values to the node of group 1. |
Z-Wave products are supposed to work out of the box after inclusion, however certain configuration can adapt the function better to user needs or unlock further enhanced features.
IMPORTANT: Controllers may only allow configuring signed values. In order to set values in the range 128 ... 255 the value sent in the application shall be the desired value minus 256. For example: To set a parameter to 200 it may be needed to set a value of 200 minus 256 = minus 56. In case of a two byte value the same logic applies: Values greater than 32768 may needed to be given as negative values too.

For Z-Wave controllers that do not support Sound Switch Command Class, the sound to be played can be set here. Size: 1 Byte, Default Value: 0
Setting | Description |
---|---|
1 - 99 | 1 - 99 = Sound 1 - 99 is played, (Hexadecimal: 0x00 - 0x63) |
0 | No sound is played. |
Additional temperature report, which is sent when the set threshold is exceeded. Size: 1 Byte, Default Value: 5
Setting | Description |
---|---|
0 - 10 | The value 0 deactivates the temperature report. Adjustable from 0 - 10 in 0.5 steps, e.g. 5 = 2.5. (Hexadecimal: 0x00 - 0x0A) |
Additional humidity report that is sent when the set threshold is exceeded. Size: 1 Byte, Default Value: 5
Setting | Description |
---|---|
1 - 10 | Adjustable from 0 - 10 in 5% steps, e.g. 5 = 25%, (Hexadecimal: 0x00 - 0x0A) |
0 | Humidity report is disabled. |
Determines whether sound file #2 should be played directly in case of a sabotage alarm. Size: 1 Byte, Default Value: 0
Setting | Description |
---|---|
0 | 0 = The siren does not play a sound file. |
