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
This Smoke Detector uses a non-radioactive photoelectron-sensor for a reliable and safe detection of smoke. The smoke sensitivity is 0.5 % /ft ? 4 % /ft. The smoke detector has a test button and a flashing LED, so you always know that the smoke alarm is working correctly. The smoke alarm will warn you when the battery is low. When the device detects smoke, it will give a loud warning sound. It will also trigger actions in other Z-Wave devices or Z-Wave controllers to escalate the alarm. The Smoke Detector can also activate an alarm-scenario within the Z-Wave network. For example you can create an alarm- scenario to switch on all lights in the house when smoke is detected. Even at the middle of the night, you may leave the house very quickly when smoke is detected.
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.
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
- Remove the bracket from the detector by rotating it counter-clockwise.
- Place the bracket where you are going to install the detector. In each of keyhole slots, draw a mark to locate plastic anchor and screw. Using a 3/16-inch (5mm) drill bit, drills two holes at the marks and insert plastic anchor, and attached the bracket by using the screws.
- Open the battery cover to insert the batteries, and then replace the cover. Fix the detector with bracket by rotating it clockwise.
Please follow the recommendations about amount as position of the sensor in your home as given above. Avoid to place the sensor into the angle of walls, prefer positions in the middle of the room.
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
Exclusion and Inclusion is confirmed by hitting the programm button.
Exclusion
Exclusion and Inclusion is confirmed by hitting the programm button.
Product Usage
-
* **Power-on Mode:** 1) Install the battery into the module 2) Close the bracket
- the detector will take 8 to 12 sec. and emit a beep to confirm and start the burglar system. The detector will alarm once remove the bracket.
- Stand-by Mode: The red LED flashes one time every 11 seconds.
- Alarm Mode (It is the status when the alarm is triggered.): If a certain density of smoke is detected, an audible alarm with 3 beeps, break and 3 beeps will occure. The red LED will flash continuously and rapidly. Meanwhile, the smoke detector will send an alarm report (type: smoke alarm, state: alarm) to the user?s controller and also the detector will send an alarm report (type: smoke alarm, state: No alarm).
- Error Mode: If the smoke detector beeps and yellow LED flashes three times, it indicates the smoke detector is not working properly. Please require to repair or service.
- Low battery warning Mode: The yellow LED will flash once every 43 seconds with a short ?beep? sound.
- Testing Mode: Test the alarm weekly by pushing the test switch for about 3 sec. until there are 3 beeps and red LED light on continuously. Then, the smoke detector will send an alarm report (type: smoke alarm, state: alarm) to the user?s controller and also the dectecor will send an alarm report (type: smoke alarm, state: No alarm). Please note if the detector only beep once and red LED flashes three times, it indicates the detector is not working properly. Please require to repair or service.
- Battery Power indicator: The detector will report the current status of battery capacity to the user?s controller.
- Self-Protection Mode: If the detector is removed from bracket, the detector will send an alarm (type:smoke alarm, level:0xFF) to the Z-Wave Interface Controller, and the yellow LED will flash continuously and the detector will sound.
- Silence Mode: The user could press the test switch to get into silence mode to turn off the alarm temporarily. The silence function will automatically turn into normal operation after 10 minutes if the smoke concentration around the detector is still at alarming level.
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:
Hitting the programm button will send out an 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:
Hitting the programm button will wake up 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.
