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

FIBARO Wall Plug is a remotely controlled plug-in switch with the ability to measure power and energy consumption. It uses a LED frame to visualize the current load and operating mode with color changing illumination. FIBARO Wall Plug makes it possible to control electrical devices in a convenient and maintenance-free way.It is also equipped with a USB charging port with power metering.Main features of FIBARO Wall Plug:- Compatible with any Z-Wave or Z-Wave+ Controller.- Supports Z-Wave network Security Modes: S0 with AES-128 encryption and S2 with PRNG-based encryption.- Extremely easy installation – simply plug the device into the mains socket.- Equipped with USB charging port.- Works as a Z-Wave signal repeater.- Active power and energy consumption metering for plugged device and the USB port.- Current value of the load and operating mode are indicated by the multi-color LED frame.

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.

Please use this procedure only when the network primary controller is missing or otherwise inoperable.Reset procedure allows to restore the device back to its factory settings, which means all information about the Z-Wave controller and user configuration will be deleted.1.Make sure the device is powered.2.Press and hold the button.3.Wait for the LED frame to glow yellow (3rd menu position).4.Release the button.5.Click the button once to confirm selection.6.After few seconds the device will restart with factory settings, which is signaled with the red frame color.

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

To add the device to the Z-Wave network:1.Plug the device into a socket nearby the main Z-Wave controller.2.The LED frame will glow red signaling not being added (reset or remove the device otherwise).3.Set the main controller in (security/non-security) add mode.4.Quickly, triple click the button located on the casing.5.If you are adding in S2 authenticated mode, type in the device pin code (underlined part of the public key available on the device or in the manual).6.Wait for the adding process to end.7.Successful adding will be confirmed by the Z-Wave controllers message.

Exclusion

To remove the device from the Z-Wave network:1.Plug the device into a socket nearby the main Z-Wave controller.2.The LED frame will glow green signaling being added (removing is not necessary otherwise).3.Set the main controller into remove mode.4.Quickly, triple click the button located on the casing.5.Wait for the removing process to end.6.Successful removing will be confirmed by the Z-Wave controllers message.

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:

FIBARO Wall Plug is powered with mains voltage so it is always awake.

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

1| 1| Lifeline reports the device status and allows for assigning single device only (main controller by default).
---|---|---
2| 5| On/Off (Button) devices in this group will be switched on or off when relay status is changed using the button (uses Basic command class).
3| 5| On/Off (Plug power) devices in this group will be switched on or off depending on the current load of plugged device (uses Basic command class).

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.
