Description and features

Description

eVI WISE is a Z-Wave™ device that allows control the air flow through the fan. Evi WISE fan is a device designed for rooms like kitchens and bathrooms and is meant to extract used air, excess humidity and bad smells. It is a highly efficient device designed with balance between power, sound level and energy consumption. It is equipped with a Z-Wave module and integrated humidity and temperature sensor. Evi WISE fan is a main part in the Venture WISE system.

Main features

  • The device allows control of the air flow through the fan
  • Pre-set configurations allow to easily adjust operation for specific type of controlled devices
  • 230 VAC powered
  • Adjustable speed
  • Equipped with humidity and temperature sensor
  • Supports Z-Wave network Security Modes: S0 with AES-128 encryption and S2 Authenticated with PRNG-based encryption.
  • Works as a Z-Wave signal repeater when VDC powered (all nonbattery operated devices within the network will act as repeaters to increase reliability of the network).
  • May be used with all devices certified with the Z-Wave Plus™ certificate and should be compatible with such devices produced by other manufacturers.

The device is a Security Enabled Z-Wave Plus product and a Security Enabled Z-Wave Controller must be used in order to fully utilize the product.

Connection diagrams

In order for the device to operate correctly it is necessary to :

  • Provide mains voltage of 230 VAC connected to terminals marked L-phase, N-neutral.
  • Connect two “toggle” buttons, i.e. those with On/Off states, to the terminals marked S1 and S2 – the first end of the button to the terminal (S1, S2) and the second end to the L-phase cable.
  • Connect the POWER and LOGIC boards to each other using the dedicated cable.
  • Connect the fan to the connector intended for it.

Operation of physical buttons

The device is equipped with two function buttons S1 and S2. The S1 button turns the higher gears on or off. The S2 button determines which higher gear is switched on, 60 (2nd gear) or 100 (3rd gear).

Attention

The device should be operated only via Z-Wave commands or only via physical buttons at the same time. The action performed on the device overwrites the previously set action. If an action is performed on the buttons, the device will be set according to their configuration. If a Z-Wave command is sent, the device will ignore the configuration of the buttons and set what the Z-Wave is requesting. Mixing the two types of control can lead to a discrepancy between the position of the buttons and their status

Adding to Z-Wave network

Adding (Inclusion) – Z-Wave device learning mode, allowing to add the device to existing Z-Wave network.

Adding manually

To add the device to the Z-Wave network manually:

  1. Set the main controller in (Security/non-Security Mode) add mode (see the controller’s manual).
  2. Set the device in learning mode by single-clicking the button o n the PCB .
  3. If you are adding in Security S2 Authenticated, input the underlined part of the DSK (label on the device).

Adding using SmartStart

SmartStart enabled products can be added into a Z-Wave network by scanning the Z-Wave QR Code present on the product with a controller providing SmartStart inclusion. SmartStart product will be added automatically within 10 minutes of being switched on in the network range.

To add the device to the Z-Wave network using SmartStart:

  1. To use SmartStart your controller needs to support Security S2 (see the controller’s manual).
  2. Enter the full DSK string code to your controller. If your controller is capable of QR scanning, scan the QR code placed on the label on the device.
  3. Power the device.
  4. Wait for the adding process to start (up to few minutes), which is signalled with green LED blinking.
  5. Adding result will be confirmed by the Z-Wave controller’s message. In case of problems with adding the device, please reset the device and repeat the adding procedure.

Removing from Z-Wave network

Removing (Exclusion) – Z-Wave device learning mode, allowing to remove the device from existing Z-Wave network.

To remove the device from the Z-Wave network:

  1. Set the main controller into remove mode (see the controller’s manual).
  2. Click once on the PCB button (Fig. 3).
  3. Wait for the removal process to complete.

Resetting to factory defaults

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. Resetting the device is not the recommended way of removing the device from the Z-Wave network. Use reset procedure only if the primary controller is missing or inoperable. To remove the device properly, follow the removing procedure described in “Removing from Z-Wave network”.

  1. To restore the device to the factory settings, hold down the button located on the PCB for at least 5 seconds (Fig. 3).
  2. Wait for the reset procedure to complete (red led will stop illuminating for 1 second and the relay will click).

Operation

Visual indications

The built-in LED light shows current device status.

Colour Fan speed
Red 30%
Green 60%
Orange 100%

Temperature sensor

The device has a built-in temperature sensor. It measures the ambient temperature. It reports cyclically every hour and if the value has changed by 0.3°C since the last measurement.

Humidity sensor

The device has a built-in humidity sensor. It measures the ambient humidity. It reports cyclically every hour and if the value has changed by 2% since the last measurement.

Configuration

Associations

Association (linking devices) – direct control of other devices within the Z-Wave system network.

Associations allow:

  • reporting the device status to the Z-Wave controller (using Lifeline Group)

The device provides the association of group:

1st association group – “Lifeline” reports the device status and allows for assigning single device only (main controller by default). “Lifeline” is reserved solely for the controller and hence only 1 node can be assigned.

Advanced parameters

The device allows to customize its operation to user’s needs using configurable parameters. The settings can be adjusted via Z-Wave controller to which the device is added. The way of adjusting them might differ depending on the controller. In the interface parameters are presented as simple options in Advanced Settings of the device.

•  0x01 .. 0xFF (0.1 .. 25.5 seconds) Example: 300ms ON and 500ms OFF is

achieved by setting On/Off period (0x03) = 0x08 and On time within an On/Off Period

(0x05) = 0x03

This value is ignored if On/Off periods is not defined.

This value is ignored if On/Off periods value is less than this value.

Mapping values to relay states

The device controls three relays and appears in the system (Z-Wave) as a multilevel switch. This means that any value from 0-99% can be set, but will map to the switching of the corresponding relay

Value State Gear
0* <= 30 fan set at 30% Gear 1
>30 <= 60 fan set at 60% Gear 2
>60 < 100 fan set to 100% Gear 3

By setting parameter number 154, the fan can be completely switched off after sending the value 0 or OFF.
