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

Smoke-Control is a universal, optical Z-Wave smoke detector. A fire alarm is signaled by sound, visual indicator blinking, and sending Z-Wave alarm and control commands.The optical sensor detects smoke at an early stage of fire, often before flames appear and the temperature rises significantly. Moreover, thedevice has a built-in temperature sensor, a programmable indicator of exceeding the set temperature level.Smoke-Control is designed to be placed on a wall or ceiling. Visual indicator signals fire operating mode and are used to see if the device iswithin the Z-Wave network. Smoke-Control is designed to operate in confined spaces under normal conditions (lacking smoke, dust, condensed water vapor).

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.

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.

  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. Reporting device state. Only one device - Z-Wave networkcontroller may be set in this group. Its not recommended to modify this associationgroup.
2 5 Smoke Alarm. Sending the BASIC SET control command once smoke isdetected. Its value may be modified in advanced parameters (see section XVI). Groupmay control up to five on/off devices.
3 5 Tamper. Sending the notification NOTIFICATION REPORT (TYPE =BURGLAR, EVENT = PRODUCT COVERING REMOVED) to associated devices oncecasing opening is detected. Up to five devices supporting casing opening command(NOTIFICATION REPORT) may be included in this group.
4 5 Smoke Alarm. Sending the notification SENSOR ALARM REPORT (TYPE= SMOKE ALARM) to associated devices once smoke is detected. Up to five devicessupporting SMOKE ALARM command may be included in this group
5 5 Tamper. Sending SENSOR ALARM REPORT notification (TYPE =GENERAL) to associated devices once casing opening is detected. Up to five devicessupporting SENSOR ALARM REPORT command may be included in this group.

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 1: Smoke-Control sensitivity

There are 3 levels of sensitivity to smoke presence. Level 1 means the highest sensitivity. Rising the parameter value lowers the sensitivity to smoke presence.
Size: 1 Byte, Default Value: 2

Setting Description
1 - 3 Smoke-Control sensitivity

Parameter 10: Temperature report interval

Time interval between consecutive temperature reports. Report is sent when new temperature value is different from the one previously reported - according to the set hysteresis (parameter 21). Temperature reports can be also sent as a result of polling.
Size: 2 Byte, Default Value: 1

Setting Description
0 - 8640 Temperature report interval

Parameter 11: Temperature report hysteresis

The temperature report will only be sent if there is a difference in temperature value from the previous value reported, defined in this parameter (hysteresis). Temperature reports can be also sent as a result of polling.
