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

FIBARO Motion Sensor is a universal, Z-Wave Plus compatible multi-sensor. This device has a built-in motion sensor, temperature sensor and light sensor. Additionally, through vibrations detection, it may detect tampering attempt or an earthquake. FIBARO Motion Sensor is battery powered, completely wireless, and its casing allows for quick and non-invasive installation on any surface. The eye of the sensor visually indicates motion, temperature level, operating mode or may inform about Z-Wave network range. The device can be used for lighting scenes and presence monitoring systems.

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.

Reset to factory default

This device also allows to be reset without any involvement of a Z-Wave controller. This procedure should only be used when the primary controller is inoperable.

1.Open the cover by turning it counter-clockwise. 2.Press and hold the B-button.3.Wait for visual indicator to glow yellow (2nd menu position).4.Release the B-button.5.Click the B-button to confirm selection.6.After few seconds the device will be reset, which is signalled with the red, fading visual indicator colour.Use reset procedure only if the primary controller is missing or inoperable.

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

1.Open the cover by turning it counter-clockwise. 2.Place the device within the direct range of your Z-Wave controller.3.Set the main controller in (security/non-security) add mode (see the controllers manual).4.Quickly, three times press the B-button.5.Wait for the adding process to end.6.Successful adding will be confirmed by the Z-Wave controllers message.

Exclusion

1.Open the cover by turning it counter-clockwise.2.Place the device within the direct range of your Z-Wave controller.3.Set the main controller in remove mode (see the controllers manual).4.Quickly, three times press the B-button.5.Wait for the removing process to end.6.Successful removing will be confirmed by the Z-Wave controllers message.

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: The Motion Sensor will wake up at a defined time interval and will always try to communicate with the main controller. There is a possibility to wake up the device manually by clicking the B-button.

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:

Group Number Maximum Nodes Description
1 1 Lifeline reports the device status and allows for assigning single device only (main controller by default).
2 5 Motion is assigned to the motion sensor - sends motion detection and alarm cancellation frames to the associated devices.
3 5 Tamper is assigned to the tamper - sends tamper alarm and alarm cancellation frames to the associated devices.
4 5 Motion BC is assigned to the motion sensor - sends motion detection and alarm cancellation frames to the associated devices. Provides backward compatibility with controllers not supporting Z-Wave+ protocol.
5 5 Tamper BC is assigned to the tamper - sends tamper alarm and alarm cancellation frames to the associated devices. Provides backward compatibility with controllers not supporting Z-Wave+ protocol.

Configuration Parameters

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.
