Door/Window Sensor

SKU: EH-DS-01


Quickstart

This is a Alarm Sensor for U.S. / Canada / Mexico. To run this device please connect it to your mains power supply. To add this device to your network execute the following action:
For Adding in (Inclusion) a network: Put the Z-Wave Interface Controller into Add (Inclusion) mode, and following its instruction to add EH-DS-01 to your controller. This Door/Window sensor needs to be included before installation.1. Pull the exposed plastic tab from the sensor.2. Press the button three times within 2 seconds, The Red LED indicator will be flashing three times to indicate scanning the network.3. If network is not found after 30 seconds, the sensor will go into sleep mode. To Adding again, you need repeat steps 2

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

Z-Wave Door/Window sensors are designed to secure the perimeter of the residential premise, and provide the ability to add various automation services. The Z-Wave Door/Window sensor, which consists of a magnet that attaches to a door or window, will communicate door events to the home security system. When the magnet is moved away from the sensor, a signal will be sent to the control panel that communicates the changed state to the security system. Signals can also be used to activate a chime or convenience lighting based on system settings.

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. Pressing the button before power on, do not release the button and power on and keep on ten seconds, and the LED will turn ON.2. After over 1 seconds the Red LED indicator will turn OFF, then go auto Adding procedure.3. IDs are excluded and all settings will reset to factory default.4. Device begin auto Adding (Inclusion) mode.Note: Use this procedure only in the event that the primary controller is lost.

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

For Adding in (Inclusion) a network: Put the Z-Wave Interface Controller into Add (Inclusion) mode, and following its instruction to add EH-DS-01 to your controller. This Door/Window sensor needs to be included before installation.1. Pull the exposed plastic tab from the sensor.2. Press the button three times within 2 seconds, The Red LED indicator will be flashing three times to indicate scanning the network.3. If network is not found after 30 seconds, the sensor will go into sleep mode. To Adding again, you need repeat steps 2

Exclusion

For Removing from (Exclusion) a network: Put the Z-Wave Interface Controller into Remove (Exclusion) mode, and following its instruction to delete EH-DS-01 to your Z-Wave controller.1. Remove device front cover and pressing the button three times within 2 seconds, The Red LED indicator will be flashing three times and enter exclusion mode. 2. If remove (exclusion) successful, go auto Adding procedure.3. Node ID has been remove.

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 Plus Lifeline
