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

FIBARO Swipe is a revolutionary, battery-powered gesture control pad that allows you to control devices through the Z-Wave network. Swipe your hand up, down, left or right in front of the pad, make circular gestures and use sequences of gestures to get full and intuitive control of your smart home.Installed device perfectly matches your interior design, as it resembles a picture frame. You can even personalize it with your favourite picture. Gesture controlled menu allow to add/remove or reset the device without dismounting it. The device is equipped with a buzzer that confirms performed gestures and other actions.

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.

Reset procedure allows to restore the device back to its factory settings, which means all information about the Z-Wave controller and user configuration will be deleted. In order to reset the device:1)Make sure the device is powered.2)Move and hold your hand close to the center of the pad.3)Loud sound sequence will confirm entering the menu, keep holding your hand.4)Wait for the buzzer to indicate the 3rd menu position (3 short beeps)5)Withdraw the hand and perform swiping up gesture to confirm selection (two beeps will confirm validity).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)Place the Swipe within the direct range of your Z-Wave controller.2)Set the main controller in (security/non-security) add mode (see the controllers manual).3)Move and hold your hand close to the centre of the pad.4)If the device is battery powered, high pitched beep will signal exiting the Standby Mode.5)Loud sound sequence will confirm entering the menu, keep holding your hand.6)After hearing two short beeps, withdraw the hand and perform swiping up gesture to confirm selection (two beeps will confirm validity).7)Wait for the adding process to end.8)Successful adding will be confirmed by the Z-Wave controllers message and 3 short beeps.

Exclusion

1)Place the Swipe within the direct range of your Z-Wave controller.2)Set the main controller in remove mode (see the controllers manual).3)Move and hold your hand close to the centre of the pad.4)If the device is battery powered, high pitched beep will signal exiting the Standby Mode.5)Loud sound sequence will confirm entering the menu, keep holding your hand.6)After hearing two short beeps (green indicator colour), withdraw the hand and perform swiping up gesture to confirm selection (two beeps will confirm validity).7)Wait for the removing process to end.8)Successful removing will be confirmed by the Z-Wave controllers message and sequence of 2 short beeps, pause, 1 short beep.

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: The Swipe needs to be woken up to receive information about the new configuration from the Z-Wave controller, like parameters and associations. Use 1st menu position to wake up the device or click the button on the back of the device once.1)Move and hold your hand close to the center of the pad.2)Loud sound sequence will confirm entering the menu, keep holding your hand.3)Wait for the buzzer to indicate the 1st menu position (1 short beep)4)Withdraw the hand and perform swiping up gesture to confirm selection (two beeps will confirm validity).

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 1 Lifeline reports the device status and allowsfor assigning single device only (main controller by default).
2 5 Flick UP is assigned to moving the handup over the panel (sends Basic Set command frames).
3 5 Flick DOWN is assigned to moving thehand down over the panel (sends Basic Set command frames).
4 5 Flick LEFT is assigned to moving thehand from the right to the left side of the panel (sends Basic Set commandframes).
5 5 Flick RIGHT is assigned to moving thehand from the left to the right side of the panel (sends Basic Set commandframes) .
6 5 Circular AirWheel is assigned to circularmove of the hand clockwise or counter-clockwise over the panel(sends Switch Multilevel Start/Stop Level Change command frames).

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.
