VeriLock Translator
SKU: 9125051
Quickstart
This is a
If not included to a Z-Wave network, the device will attempt to be added to the network at power-up following an LED start-up sequence.The controller must be put into include mode before plugging in the device.During normal operation, after putting the controller into include mode, a single press of the round Z-Wave button will add the device to the Z-Wave network.
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
The VeriLock Translator is an indoor device that allows users to monitor the status of over 100 VeriLock sensors by Nexia Home Intelligence using standard Z-Wave interfaces.These sensors are added to the VeriLock Translator as Multi Channel End Points.Because the number of sensors in a home is dynamic, the number of End Points on the device is also dynamic. Unlike the VeriLock Translator, the sensors are NEVER represented as nodes on the Z-Wave network and cannot communicate over the Z-Wave network.Their status, however, is reported by the VeriLock Translator over the Z-Wave network via the Multi Channel Command Class.The VeriLock Translator is added to the Z-Wave network as a Repeater and implements the Routing Slave library.The VeriLock Translator is a Z-Wave Plus certified device.
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.
The device is factory reset by pressing and holding both the round (Z-Wave) and square (Multi-Purpose) buttons simultaneously for 15 seconds.Please use this procedure only in emergencies such as when the network primary controller is missing or otherwise inoperable.This should always be used as a last resort.
Safety Warning for Mains Powered Devices
ATTENTION: only authorized technicians under consideration of the country-specific installation guidelines/norms may do works with mains power. Prior to the assembly of the product, the voltage network has to be switched off and ensured against re-switching.
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
If not included to a Z-Wave network, the device will attempt to be added to the network at power-up following an LED start-up sequence.The controller must be put into include mode before plugging in the device.During normal operation, after putting the controller into include mode, a single press of the round Z-Wave button will add the device to the Z-Wave network.Exclusion
After putting the controller in exclude mode, a single press of the round Z-Wave button will remove the device from the Z-Wave network.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:
| Group Number | Maximum Nodes | Description |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | 1 | Z-Wave Plus Lifeline |
Configuration Parameters
Z-Wave products are supposed to work out of the box after inclusion, however certain configuration can adapt the function better to user needs or unlock further enhanced features.
IMPORTANT: Controllers may only allow configuring signed values. In order to set values in the range 128 ... 255 the value sent in the application shall be the desired value minus 256. For example: To set a parameter to 200 it may be needed to set a value of 200 minus 256 = minus 56. In case of a two byte value the same logic applies: Values greater than 32768 may needed to be given as negative values too.
Parameter 1: Buzzer Volume
Adjust the buzzer volume Size: 1 Byte, Default Value: 100
| Setting | Description |
|---|---|
| 0 - 100 | 100 is max volume. 0 is off. |
Parameter 2: Discovery Mode
Start, stop, or get the results of Discovery Mode. Retrieve the configuration parameter to obtain the results of discovery mode:0=Not Enabled, 1=Enabled, 2=Timed Out, 3=Failure Size: 1 Byte, Default Value: 0
| Setting | Description |
|---|---|
| 1 | Enable |
| 0 | Disable |
Parameter 3: Sleep Mode
Turn Sleep Mode ON or OFF. Size: 1 Byte, Default Value: 0
| Setting | Description |
|---|---|
| 0 | OFF |
| 1 | ON |

Explanation of Z-Wave specific terms
- Controller — is a Z-Wave device with capabilities to manage the network. Controllers are typically Gateways,Remote Controls or battery operated wall controllers.
- Slave — is a Z-Wave device without capabilities to manage the network. Slaves can be sensors, actuators and even remote controls.
- 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.
- Exclusion — is the process of removing Z-Wave devices from the 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.
