About Z-Wave
Adding the Device to a Z-Wave® network (inclusion)
Note! The blind connected to the Device will move 2s up/2s down if the Device is successfully added to/removed from a Z-Wave® network.
Note! In case of Security 2 (S2) adding (inclusion), a dialog will appear asking you to enter the corresponding PIN Code (5 underlined digits) that are written on the Z-Wave® DSK label on the side of the Device and on the Z-Wave® DSK label inserted in the packaging.
IMPORTANT: The PIN Code must not be lost.
SmartStart adding (inclusion)
SmartStart enabled products can be added into a Z-Wave® network by scanning the Z-Wave® QR Code present on the Device with a gateway providing SmartStart inclusion. No further action is required, and the SmartStart device will be added automatically within 10 minutes of being switched on in the network vicinity.
With the gateway application scan the QR code on the Device label and add the Security 2 (S2) Device Specific Key (DSK) to the provisioning list in the gateway.
Connect the Device to a power supply.
Check if the blue LED is blinking slowly. If so, the Device is not added to a Z-Wave® network.
Adding will be initiated automatically within a few seconds after connecting the Device to a power supply, and the Device will be added to a Z-Wave® network automatically.
The blue LED will be blinking faster during the adding process.
The green LED will be blinking in slowly if the Device is successfully added to a Z-Wave® network.
Adding (inclusion) with the S button
Connect the Device to a power supply.
Check if the blue LED is blinking slowly. If so, the Device is not added to a Z-Wave® network.
Enable add/remove mode on the gateway.
To enter the Setting mode, quickly press and hold the S button on the Device until the LED turns solid blue.
Quickly release and then press and hold (> 2s) the S button on the Device until the blue LED starts blinking slowly. Releasing the S button will start the Learn mode.
The blue LED will be blinking faster during the adding process.
The green LED will be blinking slowly if the Device is successfully added to a Z-Wave® network.
Note! In Setting mode, the Device has a timeout of 10s before entering again into Normal mode.
Adding (inclusion) with a switch/push-button
Connect the Device to a power supply.
Check if the blue LED is blinking slowly. If so, the Device is not added to a Z-Wave® network.
Enable add/remove mode on the gateway.
Toggle the switch/push-button connected to any of the SW terminals (SW, SW1, SW2, etc.) 3 times within 3 seconds (this procedure puts the Device in Learn mode*). The Device must receive on/off signal 3 times, which means pressing the momentary switch 3 times, or toggling the switch on and off 3 times.
The blue LED will be blinking faster during the adding process.
The green LED will be blinking slowly if the Device is successfully added to a Z-Wave® network.
*Learn mode - a state that allows the Device to receive network information from the gateway.
Removing the Device from a Z-Wave® network (exclusion)
Note! The Device will be removed from your Z-Wave® network, but any custom configuration parameters will not be erased.
Note! The blind connected to the Device will move 2s up/2s down if the Device is successfully added to/removed from a Z-Wave® network.
Removing (exclusion) with the S button
Connect the Device to a power supply.
Check if the green LED will be blinking slowly. If so, the Device is added to a Z-Wave® network.
Enable add/remove mode on the gateway.
To enter the Setting mode, quickly press and hold the S button on the Device until the LED turns solid blue.
Quickly release and then press and hold (> 2s) the S button on the Device until the blue LED starts blinking slowly. Releasing the S button will start the LEARN MODE.
The blue LED will be blinking faster during the removing process.
The blue LED will be blinking slower if the Device is successfully removed from a Z-Wave® network.
Note! In Setting mode, the Device has a timeout of 10s before entering again into Normal mode.
Removing (exclusion) with a switch/push-button
Connect the Device to a power supply.
Check if the green LED will be blinking slowly. If so, the Device is added to a Z-Wave® network.
Enable add/remove mode on the gateway.
Toggle the switch/push-button connected to any of the SW terminals (SW, SW1, SW2,…) 3 times within 3 seconds (this procedure puts the Device in LEARN MODE). The Device must receive on/off signal 3 times, which means pressing the momentary switch 3 times, or toggling the switch on and off 3 times.
The blue LED will be blinking faster during the removing process.
The blue LED will be blinking slower if the Device is successfully removed from a Z-Wave® network.
Factory reset
Factory reset general
After Factory reset, all custom parameters and stored values (kWh, associations, routing, etc.) will return to their default state. HOME ID and NODE ID assigned to the Device will be deleted. Use this reset procedure only when the gateway is missing or otherwise inoperable.
Factory reset with the S button
Note! Factory reset with the S button is possible anytime.
To enter the Setting mode, quickly press and hold the S button on the Device until the LED turns solid blue.
Press the S button multiple times until the LED turns solid red.
Press and hold (> 2s) S button on the Device until the red LED starts blinking faster. Releasing the S button will start the factory reset.
During factory reset, the LED will turn solid green for about 1s, then the blue and red LED will start blinking faster for approx. 2s.
The blue LED will be blinking slower if the Factory reset is successful.
Factory reset with a switch/push-button
Note! Factory reset with a switch/push-button is only possible within the first minute after the Device is connected to a power supply.
Connect the Device to a power supply.
Toggle the switch/push-button connected to any of the SW terminals (SW, SW1, SW2,…) 5 times within 3 seconds. The Device must receive on/off signal 5 times, which means pressing the push-button 5 times, or toggling the switch on and off 5 times.
During factory reset, the LED will turn solid green for about 1s, then the blue and red LED will start blinking faster for approx. 2s.
The blue LED will be blinking slower if the Factory reset is successful.
Z-Wave Security and Device Specific Key (DSK)
The Device supports the latest Security 2 (S2) feature. S2 is handled by the Strong AES 128 Encryption protocol, which means that the S2 makes Z-Wave® the most secure IoT (Internet of Things) security platform out there. To fully utilize the product and its Security 2 feature, a Security 2-enabled Z-Wave® gateway must be used.
Authenticated Control
Out-Of-Band DSK for inclusion
May be used by most implementations
The Device also supports Security 2 Authenticated, Unauthenticated, and Unsecure inclusion.
Note! When adding the Device to a Z-Wave® network with a gateway supporting Security 2 (S2), the PIN Code of the Z-Wave® Device Specific Key (DSK) is required. The unique DSK code is printed on the DSK label on the side of the Device and a copy is inserted in the packaging, which must not be lost. Do not remove the DSK label from the product. As a backup measure, use the label in the packaging.
The first five digits of the key are highlighted or underlined to help the user identify the PIN Code part of the DSK text. The DSK is additionally represented with a QR Code as shown on the image.
DSK label and QR code (example)
A joining node requesting to join the S2 Access Control Class or the S2 Authenticated Class will obfuscate its Public Key by setting the bytes 1..2 to zeros (0x00) before transferring its key via RF.
The DSK may be used for out-of-band (OOB) authentication.
The including gateway may use a QR code scanning device to read the entire DSK of the joining device and match it with the obfuscated public key received via RF from the joining device.
