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

Product Description

The eHandle ConnectSense for windows is a smart home component intended to transmit the position of the window and the handle (closed (0), open (90) or tilted (180). When closed, the eHandle Connect Sense for windows is also able to detect common burglary attempts like drilling or prying a window open. In addition, the state of the battery is transmitted to the smart home central control unit.This product can be operated in any Z-Wave network with other Z-Wave certified devices from other manufacturers. All mains operated devices within the network can act as repeaters regardless of manufacturer to increase reliability and range of the network.

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 the concealed button for 10 seconds using the Allen key.

The successful reset to the factory setting is confirmed by the LED lighting up once.

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

For mechanical installation, refer to the manufacturer‘s manual.

Installation Guide

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

1. Follow the instructions of your smart home central control unit and start the process of adding or removing.

2. Using the Allen key, press the hidden button on the back of of the wireless unit three times in quick succession (within one second), (steps 3-4).

3. The successful start and the progress of the add or remove can be tracked in your smart home central control unit.

4. Your smart home central control unit may ask you to enter a five-digit PIN number. You will find this on the sticker with QR code. It is the underlined sequence of numbers.

5. A successful addition (Add) is displayed in your smart home central control unit.

6. The handle signals that it is ready for calibration by flashing the green LED.

Exclusion

Using the Allen key, press the hidden button on the back of of the wireless unit three times in quick succession (within one second).

Product Usage

Insert the battery into the wireless unit (steps 1-2). Use only LS14500 batteries.

After inserting the battery, the eHandle ConnectSense for windows is ready to be registered with a smart home central control unit.

To do this, follow the instructions from your smart home central control unit for adding Z-Wave components. Refer to the user manual of your smart home central control unit for information how to start this process. Only when the smart home central control unit is ready for adding of new device, is it possible to add the handle to the system. Removal, too, is started via your smart home central control unit – please refer to the user manual. Removing the eHandle ConnectSense for windows resets it to its factory default settings.

Calibration

The calibration of the eHandle ConnectSense for windows must be performed during initial commissioning and after a battery change. To do this, the eHandle ConnectSense for windows must be mounted on the window.

Attention
Please ensure that the window sash is closed during the entire calibration process.

Proceed as follows:

1. Move window handle from closed to tilt position –> LED flashes –> LED lights up in case of success

2. Move window handle from tilted to open position –> LED flashes  –> LED lights up in case of success

3. Move window handle from open to closed position –> LED flashes 1x short, 1x long –>LED goes out, calibration completed

Successful calibration can be recognized by the fact that the handle and sash positions are correctly displayed in the smart home central control unit. If this is not the case, perform the calibration process again. To do this, remove the battery and reinsert it.

Reset after a detected burglary attempt

After a detected burglary attempt the eHandle ConnectSense for windows must be reset manually. To do so, move the handle to the tilted position and after approx. 2 seconds to the closed position. After a successful reset, the message “Burglary attempt detected” disappears on your smart home central control unit.

Z-Wave Communication

The eHandle ConnectSense for windows transmits the following to the smart home central control unit:

• Window handle in closed position (0x06 / 0x01)

• Window handle in open position (0x06 / 0x02)

• Undefined position of the window handle (0x06 / 0x07)

• Window open (0x06 / 0x16)

• Window closed (0x06 / 0x17)

• Window position cannot be determined (0x06 / 0xFE)

• Burglary attempt detected (0x07 / 0x02)

The binary sensor transmits the following to the smart home central

control unit:

• Window handle not in tilt position (0x0B / 0x00)

• Window handle in tilt position (0x0B / 0xFF)

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:

Press the concealed button

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:

Press the concealed button

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

Firmware-Update over the Air

This device is capable of receiving a new firmware ‘over the air’. The update function
needs to be supported by the central controller. Once the controller starts the update
process, perform the following action to confirm the firmware update:

The eHandle ConnectSense for windows can always be reset via a firmware update. If your smart home central control unit supports this function, you can find the latest firmware at www.hoppe.com/connectsense.

Please follow the instructions in your smart home central control unit.

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

has been opened/closed
3| 5| Transmits a Basic command to the devices in this group when the window has been tilted/closed
4| 5| Transmits a Basic command to the devices in this group when the eHandle ConnectSense for windows has detected a burglary attempt

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: BASIC command value sent to Association Groups o
