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 smart combustible gas sensor is designed to detect methane(CH4), and sound alarm to remind people of the danger, it can also send notification to users‘ smart phone via gateway to remind of people remotely. it adopts Z-Wave wireless transmission technology. With the characteristics of high sensitivity and stablization, it can avoid fire or explosion happened in advance.

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.

-Long press Net_Button at least 10 seconds in the device.
-Device Reset Locally notification is Transmitted.

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

Liquefied petroleum gas should be installed at 0.3-1m height from floor and semi-conductor of sensor installation position to gas source should be less than 1.5m. Natural gas, manufactured gas, marsh gas, etc. should be be installed at 0.3-1m below from ceiling, semi-diameter to gas source less than 1.5m.

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

Press the Network Button 3 times within 1.5s, Green LED is Blinking 3 times within 1 second.
If add Process is successful, Green LED will turn on.

Exclusion

Press the Network Button 3 times within 1.5s
If remove Process is successful, Green LED is Blinking 6 times, then turn on

Product Usage



1. Shell surface will be slightly hot while working, which is normal phenomenon
2. Please dismantle sensor while decorating house
3. Avoid spraying aerosol around sensor
4. Oil adhension around gas convection holes may effect the sensitivity of gas sensor after long time of use. It‘s suggested to clear gas convection holes every 3 months (with little detergent, but with care so it doesn‘t enter the body of the sensor).
5. Semi-conductor of gas sensor has 5-year lifespan
6. Don‘t use lighter to test the sensor directly

Starting up
 
The green LED lights up after power on the sensor, when a beep sounds once, the sensor enters into warm-up state then red and yellow LED flashes alternately. Eventually, the flash stops 3 minutes later, which indicates that the sensor has entered into a normal working state. Don‘t the senor while it‘s in warm-up state.

LIGHT STATE & PRODUCT TEST

STATE COLOR LIGHT ALARM SOUND
Power Green Normally on No
Alarm Red Flashing gas alarm
Malfunction Yellow Normally on Long buzz

Test button of this sensor is used for testing wheater LED indicator and buzzer can work properly. Red LED and yellow LED flash alternatively with buzzer alarm when the test button is pressed.

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 association group
Include command classes: Notification Report and Device Reset Locally notification.
2 5 Root Device group(Notification).
Notification reports status of gas detected or no gas detected via Lifeline.
When the sensor detects status change of gas detected and no gas detected, the device will be triggered.
