Important safety information
Please read this manual carefully. Failure to follow the recommendations in this manual may be dangerous or may violate the law. The manufacturer, importer, distributor and seller shall not be liable for any loss or damage resulting from failure to comply with the instructions in this manual or any other material. Use this equipment only for its intended purpose. Follow the disposal instructions. Do not dispose of electronic equipment or batteries in a fire or near open heat sources.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
Venture WISE Heat Controller is a remotely controlled thermostatic head to control the temperature in your room. It measures the temperature andautomatically adjusts the heat level.It can be mounted without tools on three types of thermostaticradiator valves.You can create schedules via an app to easily manage temperaturethroughout the week.Main features of the Device:- to be installed on three types of valves: M30 x 1.5, Danfoss RTD-Nand Danfoss RA-N,- compatible with any certified Z-Wave Controller,- supports Z-Wave network Security Modes: S0 with AES-128encryption and S2 with PRNG-based encryption,- built-in battery recharged through standard micro-USB port,- easy installation - no tools required,- can use a dedicated temperature sensor,- supports heating schedules,- automatic calibration,- anti-freeze function,- descaling function,- unconstrained rotation spherical knob to set the desired temperature.
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.
- Make sure a device is in factory reset state before including. In doubt exclude before include.
- If inclusion still fails, check if both devices use the same frequency.
- Remove all dead devices from associations. Otherwise you will see severe delays.
- Never use sleeping battery devices without a central controller.
- Dont poll FLIRS devices.
- 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 | u0022Lifelineu0022 reports the device status and allows for assigning single device only (main controller by default). |
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: Override Schedule duration
This parameter determines duration of Override Schedule after turning the knob while normal schedule is active (set by Schedule CC). Size: 4 Byte, Default Value: 240
| Setting | Description |
|---|---|
| 10 - 10000 | in minutes |
Parameter 2: Additional functions
This parameter allows to enable different additional functions of the device.NOTE: Parameter 2 values may be combined, e.g. 1+8=9 means that Open Window Detector and LED indications when controllingremotely are enabled. Size: 4 Byte, Default Value: 1
| Setting | Description |
|---|---|
| 0 | no additional function enabled |
| 1 | (bit 0) - open window detection (normal) |
| 2 | (bit 1) - open window detection (rapid) |
| 4 | (bit 2) - increase receiver sensitivity (shortens battery life) |
| 8 | (bit 3) - LED indications when controlling remotely |
| 16 | (bit 4) - protect from setting Full ON and Full OFF mode by turning the knob manually |
| 32 | (bit 5) - device mounted in vertical position |
| 64 | (bit 6) - Moderate regulator behaviour (instead of Rapid) |
| 128 | (bit 7) - inverted knob operation |
| 256 | (bit 8) - heating medium demand reports |
| 512 | (bit 9) - detecting heating system failures |
| 1023 | all additional function enabled |
Parameter 3: Additional functions status (READ-ONLY)
This parameter allows to check statuses of different additional functions.NOTE: Parameter 3 values may be combined, e.g. 1+2=3 means optional sensor works properly and open window detection was triggered. Size: 4 Byte, Default Value: 0
| Setting | Description |
|---|---|
| 0 | no additional function checked |
| 1 | (bit 0) - optional temperature sensor connected and operational |
| 2 | (bit 1) - open window detected |
| 4 | (bit 2) - provide heat in order to maintain set temperature |
| 8 | (bit 3) - malfunctioning heating system (cannot reach set temperature) |
| 15 | all additional function checked |

Explanation of Z-Wave specific terms
- Controller — is a Z-Wave device with capabilities to manage the network. Controllers are typically Gateways,Remote Controls or battery operated wall controllers.
- Slave — is a Z-Wave device without capabilities to manage the network. Slaves can be sensors, actuators and even remote controls.
- Primary Controller — is the central organizer of the network. It must be a controller. There can be only one primary controller in a Z-Wave network.
- Inclusion — is the process of adding new Z-Wave devices into a network.
- Exclusion — is the process of removing Z-Wave devices from the network.
- Association — is a control relationship between a controlling device and a controlled device.
- Wakeup Notification — is a special wireless message issued by a Z-Wave device to announces that is able to communicate.
