Panic Button

The AC136 Panic Button is a Z-Wave Plus™ enabled network. The device can be set up in a Z-Wave™ network to communicate directly with other end devices such as lighting controllers, or to report directly a Z-Wave™ controller (usually a gateway).

This product supports the S2 security protocol that uses encrypted Z-Wave™ Plus messages to communicate to other security-enabled Z-Wave™ Plus products. A security-enabled Z-Wave™ Plus Controller must be used in order to fully utilize the security features of this product.

The Panic Button is a portable wireless switch designed to control the Panic/Disarm status of other associated devices thru the Z-Wave™ enabled device and is fully compatible with any Z-Wave™ controller. After receiving the signals emitted by the Panic Button, the Z-Wave™controller can then give commands or operate according to its own settings. Its great compatibility with Z-Wave™ products makes it suitable for smart home cloud-based platforms.

Adding to Z-Wave™Network

Auto Inclusion

The detector supports the Auto Inclusion feature where it will automatically enter Inclusion mode when first powered up after a factory reset.

  1. Gently lever the bottom edge of the front cover to detach it from the main body.

  2. Put a Z-Wave Controller into inclusion mode.

  3. Insert 2 AAA-size 1.5V alkaline batteries into the battery
    compartment with the correct polarity. The LED on the
    device should turn ON.

  4. The Inclusion process should be completed when the LED turns off.

Note: If Auto Inclusion fails, refer to the Troubleshooting section regarding Manual Inclusion.

Testing

  1. For the Panic Button to control other devices on the Z-Wave™controller by 2 seconds long pressing for Panic and 10 seconds long pressing for disarming, a scene needs to be created. Scenes are user-defined elements in the controller that determine what actions to take when an event occurs. The Panic Button creates the event to this Scene which then controls other activation devices such as plugs or dimmers, or perhaps set the alarm to Arm or Disarm mode.
  2. After binding with the Z-Wave™ controller, the Panic Button will send data about its battery power to the Gateway after about 2 minutes. Subsequently, it will send the data once the button is pressed.

Installation

The Panic Button can be installed on the wall either by using the supplied double-sided tapes or the screws:

1. Using the double-sided tape: first, peel one side of the tape and place the sticky side onto the back of the Panic Button. Then peel the other side of the tape and attach the unit onto a proper location on the wall.

2. Using the screws:

  1. Detach the rear cover by removing the front cover and then pressing the rear cover latch (see an item  in Product Overview).

  2. Use the rear cover as a template to mark on the wall the positions of two screws. The marks should be in horizontal positions and the distance between the two marks is 60mm.

  3. Drill the holes using an appropriate size drill bit. Insert the supplied plastic wall plugs first for a cement wall. For a
    wooden wall the wall plugs

  4. Position the rear cover on the wall and turn the two screws into the wall (or wall plugs). DO NOT fasten too tightly as the rear cover might be damaged. Then replace the main body and the front cover.

Note: Ensure the unit is installed within the transmission range of the gateway using the test above.

Maintenance

  1. Do not put the unit in humid or dusty places or facing direct sunlight.
  2. Do not place the unit near combustible substances or any source of heat, e.g. fires, radiators, boilers, etc.
  3. The suitable ambient temperature for the unit is -10°C – +40°C.

Low Battery: The Panic Button will inform the Gateway when its battery runs low. Also, if the unit has completed binding with a Gateway and the front cover is detached, you can see the LED flashes once when you press the up/down key to indicate low battery condition.

Programming

Z-Wave Group

The unit supports either one of two Z-Wave Association Groups:
Group 1: Association with 1 Controller node.
Group 2: Association with 4 nodes (i.e. end devices such as smart plugs and other lighting controllers). This allows the On/Off module to receive commands directly from these end devices without the participation of the controller.

Group 1 commands:

  • When the unit is powered for the first time, the unit will send a Notification Report to the node of Group 1.
  • When device status is changed, the unit will send a Notification command to the node of Grouping 1.
  • When the battery level of the unit drops to an unacceptable level, the unit will emit a Battery report to the nodes of Grouping 1.
  • Device Reset: When performing Factory Reset the unit will send Device Reset Locally Notification to the node of Group1.

Group 2 commands:

  • When the device is pressed by the Up key, the unit will send the BASIC SET command which contains a value that is adjustable, to the nodes of Grouping 2.
    When the device is pressed by the Down key, the BASIC_SET command will also be sent to the nodes of Grouping 2.

Wakeup Command Class

After it has been included in a Z-Wave network, the detector will go to sleep but will send a Wakeup Notification Command periodically at the

Zpreset period to the controller. The detector will stay awake for 10 seconds at least and then go back to sleep to conserve battery life.

The time interval between Wakeup Notification Commands can be set in the Wakeup Command Class based on the range values below:

Minimum Wake Up Interval 600s (10 minutes)
Maximum Wake Up Interval 86400s (1 day)
Default Wake Up Interval 14400s (4 hours)
Wake Up Interval Step Seconds 600s (10 minutes)

Troubleshooting

The table below lists the several steps involved when adding or removing the detector from the Z-Wave network.

Note: If you are connecting this unit to a Z-wave Controller that utilizes the S2 security protocol, you may be asked to enter a 5 digit Device Specific Key (DSK) that is unique to each unit by your controller. This can be found in one of two places:
– on the QR code label on the back of the unit
– on the insert card inside the packaging

The table below lists typical problems encountered:

Symptom Possible Cause recommendation
press panic Dutton, LED illuminates, but the receiver(s) have no response
  1. distance between the Panic Button and the receiver(s) too far
  2. Battery running low
  3. Receivers did not learn ID successfully

|

  1. Move closer to the receivers
  2. Replace new batteries
  3. Bind with Gateway again
