Quickstart
This is a
In one Z-Wave network can be only one PRIMARY CONTROLLER. If the customer wants to have another controller in the same network, it must be added to it by calling learn mode. After this, controller will become SECONDARY or INCLUSION CONTROLLER. In order to call learn mode proceed as follows.1. Call include mode on controller to which mob.iq [ RG3+] controller is to be added.2. Simultaneously press and hold STOP and DOWN button until the LEDs light red.3. Left channel LED flashes green.4. Confirm the choice with STOP button.5. Left channel LED turns on solid and the red LEDs are off.6. A successfully completed operation will be signaled by controller through single blink of green LEDs, if the operation in not successfully completed, the controller will signal it through a triple blink of red LEDs .Learn mode has a built-in timeout which will abort learn mode if controller does not receive any information in 5 seconds after learn mode started. If the controller to which mob.iq [ RG3+] controller was added supports controller replication, then mob.iq [ RG3+] controller will transfer all information about added devices and groups to the other controller (then associating devices will not be necessary).

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.

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.
Please use this procedure only when the network primary controller is missing or otherwise inoperable.Restoring controller to factory settings removes from its memory all data about Z-Wave network, which means it will forget all added devices and return to PRIMARY CONTROLLER state. To reset controller to factory settings, proceed as follows:1. Simultaneously press and hold STOP and DOWN button until the LEDs light red.2. Left channel LED flashes green.3. Using right navigation key , select all channel LED .4. Confirm the choice with STOP button.5. All channel LEDs turns on solid and the red LEDs are off.6. A successfully completed operation will be signaled by controller through single blink of green LEDs .
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.

This device is battery operated and turned into deep sleep state most of the time to save battery life time. Communication with the device is limited. In order to communicate with the device, a static controller C is needed in the network. This controller will maintain a mailbox for the battery operated devices and store commands that can not be received during deep sleep state. Without such a controller, communication may become impossible and/or the battery life time is significantly decreased.
This device will wakeup regularly and announce the wakeup state by sending out a so called Wakeup Notification. The controller can then empty the mailbox. Therefore, the device needs to be configured with the desired wakeup interval and the node ID of the controller. If the device was included by a static controller this controller will usually perform all necessary configurations. The wakeup interval is a tradeoff between maximal battery life time and the desired responses of the device. To wakeup the device please perform the following action: In Z-Wave network it is possible to remotely exchange data with another controller in network. To call this function, proceed as follows: 1. Simultaneously press and hold STOP and UP button until the LEDs light green.2. Left channel LED flashes green ( when the middle LED flashes green, it means that controller is SECONDARY CONTROLLER).3. Using right navigation key , select all channel LEDs.4. Confirm the choice with STOP button.5. All channel LEDs turn on solid and the green LEDs are alternating in clockwise direction . 6. Controller is in data exchange mode - mode is turned on for 60 seconds and the function is renewed after each data exchange request but it is possible to quit this mode by pressing STOP once.
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 |
| 2 | 5 | supports BASIC_SET on channel 1 |
| 3 | 5 | supports SWITCH_MULTILEVEL_START_LEVEL_CHANGE on channel 1 |
| 4 | 5 | supports SWITCH_MULTILEVEL_STOP_LEVEL_CHANGE on channel 1 |
| 5 | 5 | supports BASIC_SET on channel 2 |

| 10 | 5 | supports SWITCH_MULTILEVEL_STOP_LEVEL_CHANGE on channel 3 |
| 11 | 5 | supports BASIC_SET on channel 4 |
| 12 | 5 | supports SWITCH_MULTILEVEL_START_LEVEL_CHANGE on channel 4 |
| 13 | 5 | supports SWITCH_MULTILEVEL_STOP_LEVEL_CHANGE on channel 4 |
Special Operations as Z-Wave Controller
As long as this device is not included into a Z-Wave network of a different controller it is able to manage its own Z-Wave network as primary controller. As a primary controller the device can include and exclude other devices in its own network, manage associations, and reorganize the network in case of problems. The following controller functions are supported:
Inclusion of other devices
Communication between two Z-Wave devices only works if both belong to the same wireless network. Joining a network is called inclusion and is initiated by a controller. The controller needs to be turned into the inclusion mode. Once in this inclusion mode the other device needs to confirm the inclusion - typically by pressing a button.
If current primary controller in your network is in special SIS mode this and any other secondary controller can also include and exclude devices.
To become primary a contoller have to be resetted and then include a device.
In order to operate the electrical accessories using mob.iq [ RG3+] controller, the devices working in the mob.iq system must be added to the mob.iq [ RG3+] remote. Quick start operation performs inclusion of device into the network and assigns it into all association groups assigned to current channel. Please proceed as follows. 1. Using navigation keys select the channel on which the Z-Wave device is to be added. 2. Simultaneously press and hold STOP and UP button until the LEDs light green.3. Left channel LED flashes green (when the middle LED flashes green, it means that controller is SECONDARY CONTROLLER) .4. Confirm the choice with STOP buton.5. Left channel LED turns on solid and the green LEDs are off.6. Press the programming button on the device working in the mob.iq system ( for example blind ) - device should send NIF.7. A successfully completed operation will be signaled by controller through single blink of green LEDs, if the operation in not successfully completed, the controller will signal it through a triple blink of red LEDs.Quick start operation has a built-in timeout which will abort inclusion mode if controller does not receive NIF in 60 seconds after inclusion mode started.
Exclusion of other devices
The primary controller can exclude devices from the Z-Wave network. During exclusion the relationship between the device and the network of this controller is terminated. No communication between the device and other devices still in the network can happen after a successful exclusion. The controller needs to be turned into the exclusion mode. Once in this exclusion mode the other device needs to confirm the exclusion - typically by pressing a button.
Attention: Removing a device from the network means that it is turned back into factory default status. This process can also exclude devices from it's previous network.
If you want to remove the device from the Z-Wave network (it can be any Z-Wave network) perform the exclude function. In order to remove the device from network, proceed as follows:1. Simultaneously press and hold STOP and DOWN button until the LEDs light red.2. Left channel LED flashes green .3. Using right navigation key , select the right channel LED.4. Confirm the choice with STOP button.5. Right channel LED turns on solid and the red LEDs are off.6. Press the programming button on the device working in the mob.iq system (for example blind) - device should send NIF.7. A successfully completed operation will be signaled by controller through single blink of green LEDs, if the operation in not successfully completed, the controller will signal it through a triple blink of red LEDs.Exclude operation has a built-in timeout which will abort exclusion mode if controller does not receive NIF in 60 seconds after exclusion mode started.
