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

Z-Works Heat Beat Sensor is a compact Z-Wave Plus compatible device that can monitor up to 3 meters heart rate, breathing rate and activity of an individual. Once plugged to the wall, the sensor relies on 24 GhZ-frequency wave to analyze internal body movement and collect one’s vital data. It can be used for example to ensure that a person laying in a bed is alive at night. Thanks to its 1/4″ diameter socket used by the large majority of cameras, it can be attached to most tripods and suction pads for an easy installation.

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 A (Add/Remove/Reset) button for at least 10 seconds and release. The Vital Sensor will send the Device Reset Locally command and reset all settings to the factory default. Reset cannot be aborted. Please use this procedure only when the network primary controller is missing or otherwise inoperable.

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.

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

Push A (Add/Remove/Reset) button once.

Exclusion

Push A (Add/Remove/Reset) button once.

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:

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: Power LED Control

Control the LED of the device.
Size: 1 Byte, Default Value: 1

SettingDescription

Parameter 10: Sensor Setting

Sensor Sensitivity setting. If parameter 10 is set to 0 (high sensitivity mode), the sensor becomes more vulnerable to environmental noise.
Size: 1 Byte, Default Value: 1

SettingDescription

Parameter 11: Sensor Setting

Calibration mode setting. If parameter 11 is set to 0 (manual mode), the sensor will use preset values as thresholds for detecting Heart Rate / Respiratory Rate. If set to 1 (calibration mode), the sensor will use the calibrated values instead.
Size: 1 Byte, Default Value: 0

SettingDescription

Parameter 12: Sensor Setting

Heart rate type setting. Set this to 0 when the target persons average heart rate is over 70. Set it to 1 when its below 70.
Size: 1 Byte, Default Value: 0

SettingDescription

Parameter 13: Sensor Setting

Heart Rate/Respiratory Rate sensitivity setting. If parameter 13 is set to 0, it becomes more vulnerable to environmental noise so it becomes more likely that the sensor reports fictitious non-zero Heart Rate and/or Respiratory Rate even if the target person is absent.
Size: 1 Byte, Default Value: 1

SettingDescription

Parameter 14: Start calibration

_When this parameter is set to 1, the calibration will be started. No response for CONFIGURATIONGET command for this parameter.
Size: 1 Byte, Default Value: 1

SettingDescription

Parameter 15: Calibration Status

_This can be used to get the calibration status by CONFIGURATIONGET command. Cannot set this parameter value. When power on the sensor, the status becomes 0: Not calibrated. Once calibration starts, the status becomes 1: Calibration in progress and changes to 2: Calibration done when the calibration finishes.If the status becomes 3: Error in calibration, you need to start calibration again.
Size: 1 Byte, Default Value: 0

SettingDescription

Parameter 16: Body / Respiratory Ratio

This parameter can be used to get the averaging body / respiratory ratio for past 30 seconds. The configuration value contains three 10 seconds average body / respiratory ratio divided by 8 in 10-bits length for each.Averaging Body / Respiratory Ratio = each 10-bits value x 8Cannot set this parameter value.
Size: 4 Byte, Default Value: 0

SettingDescription
