What is Z-Wave?

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.

Product Description

The Home Control Smoke Detector alarms you acoustically via an unmistakable signal sound, visually via an LED light and, if used with the devolo Home Control Central Unit, via text, e-mail or app. Thanks to the mobile and simultaneous notification sent to multiple mobile phone numbers and e-mail addresses that you select, you can respond immediately even when on the go. When combined with other Home Control devices, the Home Control Smoke Detector can, for example, additionally turn on the lights and open the shades via the Z-Wave® controller.

Prepare for Installation / Reset

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.

Safety Warning for Batteries

The product contains batteries. Please remove the batteries when the device is not used. Do not mix batteries of different charging level or different brands.

Installation

Power-On Mode

1. Turn the detector anti-clockwise to unscrew it from the housing backplate and access the battery compartment.

When screwing the Home Control Smoke Detector to the ceiling, make sure that no gas, water or power lines in the ceiling get damaged. There is a danger of electric shock!

2. Based on the drilling specifications on the housing backplate, drill holes into the room‘s ceiling at the desired location and attach the housing backplate using screws.

3. Now put the battery in the correct position (see marking in the battery compartment) in the Home Control Smoke Detector.

When you insert the battery, it pushes down the red locking pin without the use of force. This prevents the battery compartment from being closed without a battery inserted.

4. Close the battery compartment cover.

5. The installation was successful if the LED on the Home Control Smoke Detector flashes yellow once after about 10 seconds and you hear a short alarm tone.

Inclusion/Exclusion

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.

Inclusion

Briefly press the test alarm button on the front of the smoke detector. The LED flashes red. With this, the registration on the Central Unit has been completed successfully.

Exclusion

Press the program switch of MT:2651 for 1 second at least to be excluded. The red LED setting light will flash continuously in Exclusion condition.

Product Usage

Replacing the batteries

Do not use rechargeable batteries! The device uses a commercially available CR123 3V 1400mAh lithium battery.

Turn the detector anti-clockwise to unscrew it from the housing backplate and access the battery compartment.

1. Remove the old battery.

2. Now insert the new battery into the Home Control Smoke Detector in the correct position.

3. When inserting the battery, make sure the position is correct. Using the battery incorrectly can damage the device!

When you insert the battery, it pushes down the red locking pin without the use of force. This prevents the battery compartment from being closed without a battery inserted.

Function test

The battery change was successful if the LED on the Home Control Smoke Detector flashes yellow once after about 10 seconds and you hear a short alarm tone.

If the test alarm still does not provide acoustic or visual feedback, the device may be defective. For replacing the Home Control Smoke Detector, contact devolo AG.

Standby mode

The test alarm button with the red LED on the front side of the device serves to check the function. In addition, it makes the signal LED visible. Flashing of the red LED approximately every five minutes indicates that the smoke detector is ready. If smoke is detected, the red LED flashes fast and continuously, and simultaneously a triple beep sounds, which repeats again and again after short pauses.

Mute

The mute switch can temporarily suppress an alarm for up to 10 minutes.

To use this function, press the test alarm button on the front side of the device in case of an alarm. If there is still sufficient smoke concentration present after 10 minutes, the device will again set off the alarm.

Battery life warning

If the LED flashes, alternating between red and yellow, and if a short beep sounds every 43 seconds, the level of the battery of the Home Control Smoke Detector is low. When the warning about the battery level is activated, the battery will last for up to another 30 days, but for security reasons it should be replaced immediately after the warning.

Error message

If you hear a triple beep three times within 43 seconds and if the LED is flashing yellow, the smoke detector is not functioning properly. In this case, replace the device.

If the Home Control Smoke Detector is not functioning properly, contact devolo AG.

Activating the alarm

When smoke is detected, the Home Control Smoke Detector will send a message to the Z-Wave® controller.

Function test

1.Keep the test alarm button pressed until you hear the alarm tone and the LED flashes red.

2.To switch off the alarm again, simply release the test alarm button.

Communication to a Sleeping device (Wakeup)

This device is battery operated and turned into deep sleep state most of the time to save battery life time. Communication with the device is limited. In order to communicate with the device, a static controller C is needed in the network. This controller will maintain a mailbox for the battery operated devices and store commands that can not be received during deep sleep state. Without such a controller, communication may become impossible and/or the battery life time is significantly decreased.

This device will wakeup regularly and announce the wakeup state by sending out a so called Wakeup Notification. The controller can then empty the mailbox. Therefore, the device needs to be configured with the desired wakeup interval and the node ID of the controller. If the device was included by a static controller this controller will usually perform all necessary configurations. The wakeup interval is a tradeoff between maximal battery life time and the desired responses of the device. To wakeup the device please perform the following action: Press program switch once, the detector will send NIF signal first and will also send Wake Up Notification after 3 seconds.

Quick trouble shooting

Here are a few hints for network installation if things dont work as expected.

Make sure a device is in factory reset state before including. In doubt exclude before include.
If inclusion still fails, check if both devices use the same frequency.
Remove all dead devices from associations. Otherwise you will see severe delays.
Never use sleeping battery devices without a central controller.
Dont poll FLIRS devices.
Make sure to have enough mains powered device to benefit from the meshing

Association - one device controls an other device

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.
