Quickstart

This is a Z-Wave Device for Russian. To run this device please connect it to your mains power supply.

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.

Product Description

Overflowing bathtubs, leaking washing machines or defects to gas and water pipelines – damages can occur almost anywhere and cause immense costs. The POPP Flow Stop shutoff can prevent this – thanks to Z-Wave.

Flow Stop is a motor operated shut-off controller for automatic flow stop of gas and water pipes. It is equipped with Z-Wave technology. This means it is particularly suitable for use in smart homes.

Even installation is child&rsquos play. The POPP Flow Stop is delivered completely including valve control/motor, power supply, mounting and Quick Start Guide and is easy to assembly on the existing ball stop valve. In doing so, all usual pipe standards, including ½ " and ¾“, are possible. On this occasion no pipes must be dismantled or even water must be drained. That way the installation is normally done in 5-10 minutes.

Effective immediately the Popp Flow Stop supports secure communication (Security Command Class) within a Z-Wave network and comes with a new and improved firmware version.

The following changes apply:

Communication to the flow stop is now secured with encryption. This does not only protect the device against burglars that want to do harm to the home (e.g. waste water by opening the valve to watering system). It&rsquos also protecting better against jamming of the communication link.
Configuration of the local LED: The user can now decide if the blue LED shall indicate open or close state
Unsolicited report of any state change of the flow stop to the controller.
Second communication channel to report manual operation of the device. Here up to 5 other devices can be operated independent of the controller.
The remote operation of the device can be limited to „no“, „only open“ or „only close“ to further protect against malfunction.

All these security features are available only with the Popp Flow Stop! Comparable devices do not support these 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.

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.

Quick trouble shooting

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

Make sure a device is in factory reset state before including. In doubt exclude before include.
If inclusion still fails, check if both devices use the same frequency.
Remove all dead devices from associations. Otherwise you will see severe delays.
Never use sleeping battery devices without a central controller.
Dont poll FLIRS devices.
Make sure to have enough mains powered device to benefit from the meshing

Explanation of Z-Wave specific terms

Controller — is a Z-Wave device with capabilities to manage the network. Controllers are typically Gateways,Remote Controls or battery operated wall controllers.
Slave — is a Z-Wave device without capabilities to manage the network. Slaves can be sensors, actuators and even remote controls.
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.
