batteries (1,5V) into the battery compartment with the correct polarity. The
LED on the device should turn ON4. Enter PIN number into the Z-Wave
controller. The PIN number can be found on the device. See where in the
installationguide.5. The inclusion process should be completed when the LED
stops blinking6. Perform test before you refit the battery cover. See How to
test the Z-Wave Device.Manual inclusion1. Carefully remove the front cover by
pulling the bottom of the front cover. There is a link button which is used to
put thedevice in learning mode (inclusion/exclusion).2. Press the link button
3 times within 1.5 seconds to put the unit into learning (inclusion/exclusion)
mode.3. Enter PIN number into the Z-Wave controller. The PIN number can be
found on the device. See where in the installationguide.4. The inclusion
process should be completed when the LED stops blinking5. Perform test before

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
AXIS T8343-EUR Alert Button is a wireless push button which relays events such as notification messages, illumination and much more. With its support for wireless input/output connectivity, the alert button can communicate wirelessly with AXIS M5065 PTZ Network camera or other connected Z-Wave Plus controllers, creating a small security solution with less cabling. Thanks to its integrated wireless I/O connectivity, AXIS T8343-EUR enables flexible installation as the relay can easily be moved and adapted to your needs.
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.
1. Press the link button 3 times within 1.5 seconds to put the device into exclusion mode.2. Within 1 second of step 1, press the link button again and hold for 5 seconds. 3. Node ID is excluded. The device reverts to factory default state.(This procedure should only be used when the controller isinoperable.)
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
Auto inclusion1. Carefully remove the front cover by pulling the bottom of the front cover.2. Put a Z-Wave controller into inclusion mode.3. Insert 2 AAA- batteries (1,5V) into the battery compartment with the correct polarity. The LED on the device should turn ON4. Enter PIN number into the Z-Wave controller. The PIN number can be found on the device. See where in the installationguide.5. The inclusion process should be completed when the LED stops blinking6. Perform test before you refit the battery cover. See How to test the Z-Wave Device.Manual inclusion1. Carefully remove the front cover by pulling the bottom of the front cover. There is a link button which is used to put thedevice in learning mode (inclusion/exclusion).2. Press the link button 3 times within 1.5 seconds to put the unit into learning (inclusion/exclusion) mode.3. Enter PIN number into the Z-Wave controller. The PIN number can be found on the device. See where in the installationguide.4. The inclusion process should be completed when the LED stops blinking5. Perform test before you refit the battery cover.
Exclusion
Manual exclusion1. Detach the front cover.2. Press the link button 3 times within 1.5 seconds to put the unit into learning (inclusion/exclusion) mode.3. The exclusion process should be completed when the LED stops blinking.4. Refit the front cover.
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:
After the detector has been included into a Z-Wave network it will go to sleep, but it will send a wake-up notification command tothe controller periodically at a preset period . The detector will stay awake for at least 10 seconds and then go back to sleep toconserve battery life.
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.
Association Groups:

Explanation of Z-Wave specific terms

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.
-

-
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.
