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

This product will sound a loud siren and flash a strobe light when an alarm message or alert is received on any Z-Wave enabled network. This siren is a Z-Wave enabled device (interoperable, two-way RF mesh networking technology) and is fully compatible with any Z-Wave enabled network. Configuration modes are provided to select; Strobe, Siren or Both and to set Alarm Auto Stop time. Features also include Self-Protection (tamper proof) alert and Battery Life Alert. 105dB siren at 1 meter.

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.

All user and network settings will be cleared and the device reset to factory defaults when the device is excluded.

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

Note: If you are installing the entire Z-Wave™ system for the first time, please refer to the installation guide of Z-Wave™ Interface Controller before installing ZM 1601.
1. Remove the bracket from the siren by press the locking tab, and then gently slide up the siren. Observe the correct polarity before insert the batteries.
2. Using the screws or adhesive tape to affix the bracket on the chosen location.
3. Slide back the front cover, and then the LED should go off.




4. LED Status for Z-Wave Network:
* After power on, the orange LED will flash if the siren has not been included yet.
* After power on, the orange LED will go off if the siren has been included.

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

To get the ZM 1601 in the inclusion mode, open the bracket and press the program switch of ZM 1601 for 1 second at least & release to be included. After waiting a few seconds the LED Setting Lighting should go off, if not, please try again.

Exclusion

Press the program switch of ZM 1601 for 1 second at least & release to be excluded. Note: a. LED setting light will flash (orange color) continuously in Exclusion condition for 25 seconds.

Product Usage

1. Normal operation, the LED light will not on.

2. Alarm Mode:

Active: It will active the Alarm Mode after receiving Basic Set (ON) or Binary Switch (ON). The LED-ARRAY & SIREN will be actived according to the Configuration’s setting value.

Stop: It will stop the Alarm Mode after receiving Basic Set (OFF) or Binary Switch (OFF) which depends on Configuration’s setting value. 

Auto Stop: After stopping alarm, it will send Binary Switch Report (0x00)

3. Self-Protection Mode: After put back the bracket over 5 seconds, ZM 1601 will enter the Self-Protection Mode which will active “LED_ARRAY & SIREN at the same time. The Alarm Mode will be triggered If the back cover has been opened
during the Self-Protection Mode The Stop method is same as the Alarm Mode. Open the bracket or close the bracket after 5 seconds will sent notification

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: It is FLiRS device

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

Firmware-Update over the Air

This device is capable of receiving a new firmware 'over the air'. The update function needs to be supported by the central controller. Once the controller starts the update process, perform the following action to confirm the firmware update: Support OTA Firmware update from controller.

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 LifeLine association for central static controller

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.
