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 NodOn Smart Plug can be controlled by any kind of Z-Wave® (or Z-Wave Plus®) gateway or other Z-Wave® controller (standalone mode) such as the NodOn® Soft Remote or Octan Remote.
In both standard, Type E (French) or Schuko (German), the plug can be mounted in both side (head up or head down). Combined to its ultra-thin design, these both specificities allow an easy integration, without obstructing nearby power holes on a power strip.
Equipped with a very small super-capacitor, the NodOn Smart Plug is able to send an emergency frame to the gateway in case of power outage.

The NodOn Smart Plug is based on brand new 500 series Z-Wave® module from Sigma Designs®, and support all the new features of Z-Wave Plus® standard:
Longer range (up to 40m), lower power consumption, higher data rate transmission, and many more new features.

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 during more than 5 seconds then release. Please use this procedure only when the primary controller is missing or otherwise inoperable.

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.

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

Long press during 2 seconds to send several NIF during 30 seconds or a triple press to send a single NIF

Exclusion

Long press during 2 seconds to send several NIF during 30 seconds or a triple press to send a single NIF

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 5 Z-Wave Plusu00ae Lifeline This group is generally used to report information of the Smart Plug to the Main Controller of the network.
2 5 Follow State When the Smart Plug is switched ON (respectively OFF) - either locally or by wireless - it will send ON (respectively OFF) command to the associated devices in the group.
3 5 Follow Complementary State When the Smart Plug is switched ON (respectively OFF) - either locally or by wireless - it will send OFF (respectively ON) command to the associated devices in the group.
4 5 Power Failure Notification When the Smart Plug detects a power outage or a recover of power, it sends to following command to associated devices in the group. Detected = Power Management - AC disconnected Recovered = Power Management - AC re-connected
5 5 Power Failure Set ON When the Smart Plug detects a power outage, it sets ON the associated devices in the group.
6 5 Power Failure Set OFF When the Smart Plug detects a power outage, it sets OFF the associated devices in the group.
7 5 Power Recover Set ON When the Smart Plug detects a Power Recover, it will switched ON the associated devices in the group.
8 5 Power Recover Set OFF When the Smart Plug detects a Power Recover, it will switched OFF the associated devices in the group.

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.

  • Primary Controller — is the central organizer of the network. It must be a controller. There can be only one primary controller in a Z-Wave network.
  • Inclusion — is the process of adding new Z-Wave devices into a network.
  • Exclusion — is the process of removing Z-Wave devices from the network.
  • Association — is a control relationship between a controlling device and a controlled device.
  • Wakeup Notification — is a special wireless message issued by a Z-Wave device to announces that is able to communicate.
  • Node Information Frame — is a special wireless message issued by a Z-Wave device to announce its capabilities and functions.
