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.

For more information about Z-Wave technology, devices, white papers etc. please refer to www.z-wave.info.

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.

1. When the roller shutter is in the lowermost position, press and hold T2 for more than 20 seconds.
2. The LED will alternately flash red and green for 5 seconds after a successful reset.

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

1. Install the TechniSat Shutter.
2. After checking the correct installation, re-enable electrical power at the main fuse or circuit breaker.
3. Start the Z-Wave device add mode on your Z-Wave gateway, according to the gateway‘s manual.
4. Press T1 3x within 1 second.
5. The red status LED is on while the device is added to the Z-Wave network.
6. The green LED is on for 5 seconds after successfully adding the device.

Exclusion

1. Start the Z-Wave device remove mode on your Z-Wave gateway, according to the gateway‘s manual.
2. When the roller shutter is in the uppermost position, press and hold T1 for more than 10 seconds.
3. The red status LED is on while the device is removed from the Z-Wave network.
4. The green LED is on for 5 seconds after successfully removing the device.

Product Usage


T1 - T4... Buttons

Central Scene

The TechniSat Shutter can send central scene activation notifications to a Z-Wave gateway.
Pressing the respective button multiple times, will send the corresponding scene number:

Button / Scene number
T1 / 1
T2 / 2       
T3 / 3
T4 / 4

The following Z-Wave key attributes are available for all scenes:

Button pressed Z-Wave key attribute
two times Key Pressed 2 times

five times Key Pressed 5 times

Quick trouble shooting

Here are a few hints for network installation if things dont work as expected.

  1. Make sure a device is in factory reset state before including. In doubt exclude before include.
  2. If inclusion still fails, check if both devices use the same frequency.
  3. Remove all dead devices from associations. Otherwise you will see severe delays.
  4. Never use sleeping battery devices without a central controller.
  5. Dont poll FLIRS devices.
  6. Make sure to have enough mains powered device to benefit from the meshing

Firmware-Update over the Air

This device is capable of receiving a new firmware 'over the air'. The update function needs to be supported by the central controller. Once the controller starts the update process, perform the following action to confirm the firmware update:

1. Follow your Z-Wave gateway‘s manual, on how to update the firmware of a Z-Wave device.
2. From your gateway issue a Z-Wave request to get the current firmware version of the device to be updated.
3. When the request has been received, your device‘s LED will glow red for 10 seconds.
4. While the LED glows red, press T1, T2, T3 or T4 to allow a firmware update - the LED will now glow green for 10 seconds.
5. While the LED glows green, start the device‘s firmware update from your gateway.

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 The lifeline group reports the device‘s status.
2 10 Sends basic set commands to associated devices, according to the current state of the device.

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.
