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

The Fibaro Motion Sensor is a universal Z-Wave multi-sensor. Along with detecting motion the device measures the temperature and light intensity. The sensor has a built-in accelerometer to detect any tampering of the device. The Fibaro Motion Sensor is battery powered device and designed to be installed qickly and easily on any surface. The LED indicator signals motion, temperature level, operating mode and can be used to see if device is within the Z-Wave network. The motion sensor can be used for lighting scenes and security monitoring systems.

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.

The Fibaro Motion Sensor reset erases the EPROM memory, including all information on the Z-Wave network and the main controller.

Fibaro Motion Sensor”s reset procedure:

1. Make sure the battery works and is in place.

2. Press and hold the B-button for 4-6 seconds until the LED glows signaling the 2nd menu level.

3. Release the B-button.

4. Again, press the B-button briefly.

5. Successful reset will be confirmed with the LED changing colour to red and fading.

Safety Warning for Batteries

The product contains batteries. Please remove the batteries when the device is not used.
Do not mix batteries of different charging level or different brands.

Installation

INSTALLATION POSITION

Fibaro Motion Sensor has to be installed in a corner of the room or perpendicularly to the doors. Actual range of the sensor can be influenced by environment conditions. Should false motion alarms be reported, check for any moving objects within the sensor”s detection area, such as trees blowing in the wind, cars passing by, windmills. False motion alarms may be caused by moving masses of air and heat as well. If the device keeps on reporting false alarms, despite eliminating all of the above-mentioned factors, install the device in another place.

SENSOR INSTALLATION

• Open the casing by turning the two parts in opposite directions.
• Insert the battery or remove the battery insulator.
• Set the main controller into the learning mode.
• Quickly, triple click the B-button – LED diode will glow blue.
• Install the sensor”s holder in desired location.
• Reassemble the device (follow the markings).
• Insert the Motion Sensor in its holder.

Note: Fibaro Motion Sensor cannot be pointed at any source of heat (e.g.radiators, fireplaces, cookers, etc.) or at any source of light (direct sunlight, lamps). It”s not recommended to install the motion sensor in places prone to drafts. Sensor can be mounted using screw or the sticker.

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

Make sure that your Z-Wave Controller is in the Inclusion-/Exclusion-Mode. Tripple click the Z-Wave button inside the case to confirm the process.

Exclusion

Make sure that your Z-Wave Controller is in the Inclusion-/Exclusion-Mode. Tripple click the Z-Wave button inside the case to confirm the process.

Product Usage

Fibaro Flood Sensor has four sensors built in – Motion Sensor, Temperature Sensor, Light Sensor and Accelerometer.

It is compatible with any Z-Wave controller. The sensors detect motion using a passive IR sensor, measures the temperature and measures the light intensity. It is easy to install on a wall or any surface. It is protected against tampering and theft – once vibrations are detected, the notification is sent to the main controller. The alarms of movement and temperature are signaled by blinking of LED diode. The accelerometer has also a simple earthquake detector mode.

By using association with Fibaro”s devices the Fibaro Motion Sensor may control another Z-Wave network device, e.g. a Dimmer, Relay Switch, Roller Shutter, RGBW Controller, Wall Plug, or a scene. Fibaro Motion Sensor allows for the association of three groups. The Fibaro Motion Sensor allows for controlling 5 regular and 5 multichannel devices per an association group, out of which 1 field is reserved for the Z-Wave network main controller.

EARTHQUAKE DETECTOR MODE

Fibaro Motion Sensor can be configured to work as a simple earthquake detector, by setting the Parameter 24 value to 4. Reports with scale of the vibrations (dimensionless) will be sent at the time intervals specified in Parameter 22. First report will be sent immediately after vibrations have been detected. The minimum value of the vibrations, resulting in report being sent, can be defined in Parameter 20. Once the vibrations cease, reports will stop being sent.

Z-Wave Range Test

Fibaro Multi Sensor has a built in Z-Wave network range test for the main controller. Follow the instruction to test the main controller”s range:

• Press and hold the B-button for 2 to 4 seconds until the LED glows violet.
• Release the B-button.
• Press the B-button again, briefly.
• LED will indicate the Z-Wave network”s range (range signaling modes described below).
• To exit Z-Wave range test, press the B-button breifly.

Z-Wave Range Tester signaling modes:

LED Indicator pulsing green – Fibaro Motion Sensor attempts to extablish a direct communication with the main controller. If a direct communication attempt fails, sensor will try to establish a routed communication, through other modules, which will be signaled by LED indicator pulsing yellow.

LED Indicator glowing green – Fibaro Motion Sensor communicates with the main controller directly.

LED Indicator pulsing yellow – Fibaro Motion Sensor tries to establish a routed communication with the main controller through other modules (repeaters).

LED Indicator glowing yellow – Fibaro Motion Sensor communicates with the main controller through the other modules. After 2 seconds the sensor will retry to establish a direct communication with the main controller, which will be signaled with LED blinking in green.

LED Indicator pulsing violet – Fibaro Motion Sensor does communicate at the maximum distance of the Z-Wave network. If connection proves successful it will be confirmed with a yellow glow. It”s not recommended to use the sensor at the range limit.

LED Indicator glowing red – Fibaro Motion Sensor is not able to connect to the main controller directly or through another Z-Wave network device (repeater).

Node Information Frame

The Node Information Frame (NIF) is the business card of a Z-Wave device. It contains
information about the device type and the technical capabilities. The inclusion and
exclusion of the device is confirmed by sending out a Node Information Frame.
Beside this it may be needed for certain network operations to send out a Node
Information Frame. To issue a NIF execute the following action:

Tripple click on the B-button inside the case or a detection by one of the sensors will send a Node Information Frame.

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:

Tripple click on the B-button inside the case will wake up 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 NumberMaximum NodesDescription

3| 1| reports the device status and allows for assigning a single device only (the main controller by default – the device reports its status to the main controller). Itu2019s not recommended to modify this association group.
---|---|---
2| 5| is assigned to the tamper alarm. Alarm frame will be sent to the associated devices once tampering is detected.
1| 5| is assigned to the device status – sending, the BASIC SET control frame to the associated devices having detected motion.

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
