ADD/REMOVE THE DEVICE INTO A Z-WAVETM NETWORK (classic)

Standard Inclusion (add)
All META Serie 7 devices are compatible with all Z-WaveTM/Z-Wave PlusTM certified controllers. The devices support both the Network Wide Inclusion mechanism (which offers the ability to be included in a network, even if the device is not directly connected to the controller) and Normal Inclusion. By default, the inclusion procedure starts in Normal Inclusion mode and after a short timeout the procedure continues in Network Wide Inclusion mode that lasts for about 20 Seconds. Only a controller can add the device into the network. After activating the inclusion function by the controller, the device can be added by setting it in Learn Mode. Before including the device, the LED status indicator is solid RED. The adding of a device is executed by activating the adding procedure in the inclusion section of the controller interface and then executing 1 or 3 click on the integrated button. As soon as the inclusion procedure initiates the LED indicator starts a sequence of GREEN-BLUE blinks. The device is included in the network when the LED status is OFF and the interview is completed.

Standard exclusion (remove)
Only a controller can remove the device from the network. After activating the exclusion function by the controller, the device can be removed by setting it in Learn Mode. The procedure of exclusion can be activated by Removing a node from the Z-WaveTM network and executing 1 or 3 click on the integrated button; as soon as the exclusion initiates, the LED indicator starts a sequence of RED-BLUE blinks. The device is excluded from the network when the LED status indicator is solid RED and the App_status in the interface is OK.

SMARTSTART INCLUSION

Z-WaveTM SmartStart aims to shift the tasks related to inclusion of an end device into a Z-WaveTM network away from the end device itself, and towards the more user-friendly interface of the gateway. Z-WaveTM SmartStart removes the need for initiating the end device to start inclusion. Inclusion is initiated automatically on power-ON and repeated at dynamic intervals for as long as the device is not included into a Z-Wave network. As the new device announces itself on power-ON, the protocol will provide notifications, and the gateway can initiate the inclusion process in the background, without the need for user interaction or any interruption of normal operation. The SmartStart inclusion process only includes authenticated devices. META Serie 7 devices can be added into a Z-WaveTM network by scanning the Z-WaveTM QR Code present on the product with a controller providing SmartStart inclusion. No further action is required and the SmartStart product will be added automatically within 10 minutes of being switched on in the network vicinity. The SmartStart QR and the full DSK string code can be found on the back of the device. The PIN is the first group of 5 digits printed underlined. If you plan to use the DSK, it is important that you take a picture of the label and keep it in a safe place. CHERUBINI-A510082-META-Dry-Contact-

S2 SECURE INCLUSION

When adding META Serie 7 devices to a Z-WaveTM network with a controller supporting Security 2 Authenticated (S2), the PIN code of the Z-WaveTM Device Specific Key (DSK) is required. The unique DSK code is printed on the product label. The first five digits of the key are highlighted and underlined to help the user identify the PIN code. CHERUBINI-A510082-META-Dry-Contact-

SUPPORTED COMMAND CLASSES

Supporting Command Class Basic
The basic command classes are mapped into the Switch Binary Command Class.

Supporting Command Class Indicator
The device supports the Command Class Indicator V3 (ID 0x50). When the device receives an indicator set, the led blinks accordingly to the Indicator set received.
The color shown by the indicator will be:

RED: if the device is included without Security
BLUE: if the device is included in S2 Unauthenticated Mode
GREEN: if the device is already included in S2 Authenticated Mode.

DEVICE CONTROL

Meta Dry Contact Switch 7 can turn ON and OFF the load by using an external switch, or from remote through a controller.

Controlling the device by External Switches
For the operation of the device within the Z-WaveTM network and controlling the loads connected to the device, control actions are performed on the external switches. The CONTROL ACTIONS are EVENTS executed on EXTERNAL SWITCHES connected to the Line Signal terminal of the device which can be Clicks, Hold Down and Up.

Since the device supports Central Scene Notification all the events described in the table will be notified with a Central Scene Notification Report to the Lifeline. The events that trigger a Central Scene Notification Report can be customized with the configuration parameter in the Central Scene Notification Parameter section.

Controlling the device by a Z-WaveTM controller
The device can be controlled by any Z-WaveTM / Z-Wave PlusTM certified controller available in the market. In the figure below, are represented a couple of examples of control panel interfaces that show how the device will appear once included into the Gateway. CHERUBINI-A510082-META-Dry-Contact-

ASSOCIATIONS

Meta Dry Contact Switch 7 can control other devices like other relays or dimmers. The device supports 5 association groups, each of which supports the association of up to 8 devices (nodes):

INFO: Association ensures direct transfer of control commands between devices and is performed without participation of the main controller.

TIMER MANAGEMENT

A timer can be set when switching On and/or Off. It is also possible to define which event will start the timer. (for example only the change on the output due to double clicks).

RESET TO THE FACTORY SETTINGS

The device can be reset to the original factory with 6 consecutive clicks on the integrated button. After the reset is completed, the device will reboot and a RED solid led is showed. Please use this procedure only when the network primary controller is missing or otherwise inoperable.

INFO: If the reset is performed while the device is still part of a network, it notifies the other devices that it has been removed (Device Reset Locally Notification).

FIRMWARE UPDATE

The system supports over-the-air firmware updates that do not require the device to be removed from its location. The firmware update can be activated from all certified controllers supporting version 2 of the Firmware Update function.

WARNING: The system will be rebooted at the end of the firmware update procedure. It is advisable to carry out the firmware update procedure only when necessary and following careful planning of the intervention.

OFFLINE SETUP MODE

The device has a unique feature that allows to configure some parameters without using any user interface. This feature enables the professional user to setup the main features of the device in the field even if the device is not included in a Z-WaveTM Network. When the device will be included in the network all these configuration parameters will be maintained.To enter in offline setup mode, operate 2 clicks on the integrated button. When the device is in Offline setup mode the led becomes solid Blue and the following configurations are permitted:

1 click| Setup input type to toggle switch. Equivalent to set parameter
