Quickstart

This is a On/Off Power Switch for Europe. To run this device please insert fresh 4 * LR14 batteries. Please make sure the internal battery is fully charged.

For Inclusion and Exclusion push the Inclusion/Exclusion Switch behind the rear cover quickly 3 times.



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. Use this equipment only for its intended purpose. Follow the disposal instructions. Do not dispose of electronic equipment or batteries in a fire or near open heat sources.

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.

For more information about Z-Wave technology, devices, white papers etc. please refer to www.z-wave.info.

Product Description

The Siren SE812 Siren will warn everybody in the building by a loud sound and a flashing light about an alarm. This product is especially suited to use in combination with other Z-Wave devices such as sensors. The SE812 Siren gives a loud sound and a flashing warning light, so everybody in the building will know immediately that an alarm has occurred. You can choose to activate the siren either by burglary alarm or by a smoke alarm or activate the siren by both alarms. It is even possible to install multiple sirens, so the alarm can be heard loudly at multiple locations. The SE812 Siren has an adjustable jumper inside, so you can choose between either a 90dB or a 100 dB volume of the siren. Choose either the included batteries or a power supply to power your siren. When using batteries, the siren will give a warning when the batteries are almost empty.

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

1. Undo and remove the fixing screws from the bottom edge of the Indoor Siren and remove the rear cover.

2. Insert four LR14 1.5V size alkaline batteries to the battery compartment, ensuring correct polarity.

3. You can use power adapter instead of batteries. The power adapter is an optional accessory. A cable track is set inside the unit for you to secure the power adapter. To install the power adapter, connect the plug of power adapter to the DC jack inside the unit. Route the cable along the cable track.

4. There are two jumpers on the backside to set sound level and tamper switch. With the upper jumper the sound level can be set to 90db or 100db. With the lower jumper the tamper switch can be enabled or disabled.

5. Use the rear cover as a mounting plate, mark the positions of the three fixing holes on the wall. Fasten the rear cover to the wall using the screws and wall plugs provided.

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

 click the inclusion/exclusion switch quickly 3 times. The green LED is on and the siren beeps when the switch is pressed.

 

Exclusion

click the inclusion/exclusion switch quickly 3 times. The green LED is on and the siren beeps when the switch is pressed.

 

Product Usage

Self-Protection Mode: Once the device is closed for three seconds and the tamper switch is activated it will give an alarm for 3 minutes, if it is violent opened or manipulated. When the siren is in the normal mode and an associated device triggers an alarm the siren and the flash light will be activated.

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:

Tripple click on the inclusion/exclusion switch or a detected action by the sensor will wake up the device and keep it awake.

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
