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

Arrival Sensor lets you stay connected with the people who matter most to you. By placing the sensor on your keychain, in a purse, in a glove compartment, or around a pets collar, you can receive notifications when a person, pet, or car arrives and leaves home

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.

Press and hold more than 5 seconds,led will keep on until the Z-Button is released; Arrival Sensor will send Device_Reset_Locally to the main controller and exclude from the Z-Wave network when the Z-Button is released, this procedure will reset the Sensor to factory default.Please use this procedure only when the network primary controller is missing or otherwise inoperable.

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

1.Set the Z-Wave network main controller into learning mode.2.Triggering this action button.3.If the add for inclusion is successful, the LED will blink less than 5 seconds and then keep on 3 seconds. Otherwise, the LED will blink 8 seconds and then turn off, in which case you need to repeat the process from step 2.

Exclusion

1.Set the Z-Wave network main controller into learning mode.2.Triggering this action button.3.If the remove for exclusion, the LED will turn off within 1 second. Otherwise, the LED will blink 8 seconds and then turn off, in which case you need to repeat the process from step 2.

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: Press the study key three times then the Arrival sensor sending Wake Up Notification to Gateway to report it was wake up. Please make sure the Arrival Sensor is added to the Z-wave network.

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 1, Configure Notification Status for 0xFF (default) send Notification when send Heartbeat and TimeEnd.2, Configuration parameter 0x0A: Send Battery Report (0xFF) when Battery lower than 10%.

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.

Parameter 10: Low Battery Power Level of alarm threshold values

Low Battery Power Level of alarm threshold values: the value range are 10~50 for percentage, so the Battery Low Power level can setting 10%~50%.
Size: 1 Byte, Default Value: 10

Setting Description
10 - 50 Battery Low Power level can setting 10%~50%

Parameter 254: Configuration Lock function

Configuration Lock function: when it was lock then the other parameters value cannot change unless this parameter.
Size: 1 Byte, Default Value: 0

Setting Description
0 unlock
1 lock

Parameter 255: Reset

Reset the Z-wave network or configuration parameter.
Size: 4 Byte, Default Value: 0

Setting Description
143165576 Reset to factory configuration and removed the Z-wave network.
