Heatit (Thermo-Floor)

Heatit Z-Repeater

SKU: HEAE4512686

Quickstart

This is a
secure
Repeater
for
Europe.

Please make sure the internal battery is fully charged.

SmartStart enabled products can be added into a Z-Wave network by scanning the Z-Wave QR Code present on the product with a controller providing SmartStart inclusion. No further action is required and the SmartStart product will be added automatically within 10 minutes of being switched on in the network vicinity. Z-Wave SmartStart utilizes the DSK of the device to enhance and simplify the inclusion process. DSK is Device Specific Key used for authentication. The DSK information is stored in the QR code format that is printed on a label and adhered to the front side of the device, as example shown on the right hand side.
– Scan the QR Code sticker on the Router to obtain DSK and transfer to the Z-Wave gateway.
– Plug the Router into a power outlet, a SmartStart inclusion request will be automatically sent to the gateway.
– The gateway will automatically include the device upon recognition of the device by matching the inclusion request with the DSK obtained

NOTE
– The DSK of the device is used only during inclusion.
– The DSK can be read without the Router powered ON, so it is possible to prepare the gateway to include the device prior to powering up the Router.

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.

Product Description

The Heatit Z-Repeater Dual USB 2A is a multifunctional AC Z-Wave range extender with two USB power adapters that allow you to charge two devices at the same time. Ideal for extending the Z-Wave signal to areas with blind spots – a solution for anyone experiencing poor wireless connectivity.With the rechargeable backup batteries, the device will still be able to operate for up to 6 hours after a power failure. Important battery-operated units such as door locks, smoke detectors and burglary alarms will still work during a blackout.

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 Function Button for 10 seconds to factory reset.

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

Within 1.5 seconds, press the Function Button 3 times

Exclusion

Within 1.5 seconds, press the Function Button 3 times

Product Usage

Parts Identification

1. LED Indicator (Inside) The LED Indicator is located inside the cover and only visible when activated

– 2 flashes: The Router is powered on.

– 3 flashes: The Router is Factory reset.

2. USB Ports The USB ports provide 5V DC 2A power output to connected USB cable.
3. Interchangeable Plug The plug type may be changed according to regional requirement.
4. Function Button

– Press 3 times within 1.5 seconds to transmit a learn code.

– Press and hold for 10 seconds to factory reset.

– Press once to send battery percentage report to the Z-Wave network.

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.

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.

• Node Information Frame — is a special wireless message issued by a
  Z-Wave device to announce its capabilities and functions.
