Important safety information

Please read this manual carefully. Failure to follow the recommendations in this manual may be dangerous or may violate the law. The manufacturer, importer, distributor and seller shall not be liable for any loss or damage resulting from failure to comply with the instructions in this manual or any other material.

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 Duwi Flush Mountable Motor Control is a wireless actuator able to control 230 V powered motors for blinds and jalousies. The device is delivered as a complete set with flush mountable insert, paddle and mounting frame compatible to the design of the switching series DURO 2000 SI in color pearl white from Busch Jaeger. The paddle of the device is used to control the device itself . The status of the motor control is indicated on a dual color LED for test purposes. This device is designed for a 3 wire system and needs a neutral wire in the wall box.

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 Mains Powered Devices

ATTENTION: only authorized technicians under consideration of the country-specific installation guidelines/norms may do works with mains power. Prior to the assembly of the product, the voltage network has to be switched off and ensured against re-switching.

Installation

The insert is designed to fit into standard circular European wall boxes with 60 mm diameter. The insert combined with the mounting plate can be screwed in top of the wall box using the two screws delivered with the device. The mounting frame is then attached to the mounting plate and the switch is completed by pushing the switching paddle into the mounting frame. Mind the arrow on the inserts top side showing the mounting direction of the insert. It is also possible to mount the insert without any local operation behind a cover or inside a lamp. The mounting plate, frame and the switching paddle become useless in such a scenario.

The schematics below shows how to wire the actuator. The hot wired from the mains distribution panel is connected to the inserts contacts L. The contact S is the switched contact and need to be connected to the cable to the load. The cable from the load is connected to neutral N. If there are both neutral and hot wire in the wall box the neutral from the mains panel and the neutral to the lamp need to be connected. It is not harmful if the two connections L and S are mismatched on the actuator.

A fuse protects the electronics of the actuator. The fuse is accessible on the top side of the device. Inside the plug there is the working fuse plus a spare fuse.

CALIBRATION:

The device is able to position a blind on a desired percentage position (50 percent open) when controlled wirelessly. To allow this kind of positioning the total travel times of the motor in opening and closing direction must be determined using the following process:

  1. Move the blind into the upper end position.
  2. Push "UP" and "DOWN" for two seconds until LED blinks green. (Remark: Paddle need to be removed in order to push both buttons in parallel)
  3. Move the blind into the other end position using the UP and DOWN buttons. The LED will blink faster.
  4. Once the buttons are released at the end position this position is saved and confirmed by 3 sec green LED

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

Blinking red/green LED indicates that the device is in factory reset state. Once the controller is turned into inclusion mode triple click one of the buttons on the device will include the device. A green blinking of LED will indicate successful inclusion that will be turned off shortly afterwards. The device is excluded by triple click to one of the buttons when the controller is in exclusion mode.

Exclusion

Blinking red/green LED indicates that the device is in factory reset state. Once the controller is turned into inclusion mode triple click one of the buttons on the device will include the device. A green blinking of LED will indicate successful inclusion that will be turned off shortly afterwards. The device is excluded by triple click to one of the buttons when the controller is in exclusion mode.

Product Usage

The actuator is operated by the local switching paddles or wirelessly using Z-Wave commands (communication patterns 1, 4, 5 and 7). If the insert is mounted correctly pushing the upper part of the paddle will turn on the load; pushing the lower part of the paddle will turn the blind into the close position, pushing the upper part of the paddle will turn the blind into the open position. Hitting the paddle during operation (moving motor) will stop the operation for safety reasons. Keeping the paddle pushed moved the motor until the desired position is reached. Relasing the paddle will stop the motor.

The device is also able to remotely operate other devices (communication pattern 5) by sending wireless Z-Wave commands.

Quick trouble shooting

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

  1. Make sure a device is in factory reset state before including. In doubt exclude before include.
  2. If inclusion still fails, check if both devices use the same frequency.
  3. Remove all dead devices from associations. Otherwise you will see severe delays.
  4. Never use sleeping battery devices without a central controller.
  5. Dont poll FLIRS devices.
  6. 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.

Association Groups:
