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

Heatit ZM Single Relay is a high power relay for inwall installations. The relay allows you to control connected devices either through your Z-Wave network or via a wired switch. The module is equipped with a 16A relay and has a scene controller functionality. 

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 the configuration button. After 3 seconds the LED will start to blink in green. After 20 seconds the LED will stop blinking and emit a constant light. You may now release the button.

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.

Installation

Installation must be done by a qualified electrician in accordance with the National Building codes. Before installation, disconnect any power to the device mains. During installation of the device, power to the device must be disconnected AT ALL TIMES!The product allows for wiring of cables with a cross section of 1x2.5mm2. The product can be wired to both a Single Wall Switch or a Double Wall Switch as illustrated in the following figure:

Legend:

Note! In toggle mode, S2 must not be connected. 

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

Press the configuration button or switch connected to S1 x 3 times in rapid succession.

Exclusion

Press the configuration button or switch connected to S1 x 3 times in rapid succession.

Product Usage

Overload
The device features a default 16A overload protection. The default overload is triggered if there is a power draw of more than16Amps for longer than 2 seconds, or 0.2 seconds if the measured load is more than 20A. When a current higher than 16 Amps has been detected, the connected load must be checked. It is not possible to turn the relay back on until a power cycle has been performed. This prevents unwanted power cuts that may be caused by inrush currents. The user may define a specific user cut off according to need using Parameter 1.
When an overload is detected, the device will:

To clear the overload state, the relay must be switched back on manually using Z-Wave or connected switch. When the relay state has been changed and overload is no longer triggered, the device will send a Notification (Overload idle). Parameter 2 can be set to automatically retry at regular intervals. This Parameter 2 setting will only work if the overload was triggered by a user-specific load limit (Parameter 1).
OverheatingThe device features an internal temperature sensor which prevents any overheating caused by external high loads. When overheating is detected, the device will:To clear the overheating state, the relay must be switched back on manually using Z-Wave or connected switch. When the relay state has been changed and temperature stabilized, the device will send a Notification (Overheating idle). Parameter 2 can be set to automatically retry at regular intervals.
SWITCH MODE
The device supports two types of switches, momentary and toggle switch. The device uses momentary switches by default.
Momentary Switch (NO) – Default 
This is the recommended mode which allows for the use of all features. When used as a momentary switch, the device supports the HOLD and RELEASE functions for central scene and association groups. The switch must be a normally open switch.
Toggle Switch (ON/OFF)
In toggle mode, the device relay and switch state will not always be equal as the user can control using other Z-Wave devices. When using the device in toggle switch mode, the device will lose the following functionality:The toggle switch will not always turn ON when the output of switch is HIGH because the relay may also be controlled externally using the Z-Wave protocol.Note! When using toggle switch, S2 must not be connected in order to ensure correct functionality.

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 Lifeline
2 5 External Relay Control S1 - Basic Set
3 5 Control External Start/Stop S1 - Multilevel Switch Set
4 5 External Relay Control S2- Basic Set
5 5 Control External Start/Stop S2 -  Multilevel Switch Set

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.
