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.

Product Description

FIBARO KeyFob is a Z-Wave Plus compatible, battery-powered, compact remote control. Six buttons allow you to control other devices through the Z-Wave network and run various scenes defined in FIBARO System. Configure actions for one, two, three clicks and holding the button to suit all your needs. Built-in locking system will ensure that unauthorized person will not take control of your home.

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.

There are two ways of resetting the device:

Resetting using the menu
1) Press O and – simultaneously.
2) Press Δ or X until LED glows yellow.
3) Press + to confirm.

Resetting on start-up
1) Remove the battery.
2) Hold O and + while inserting the battery.

Safety Warning for Batteries

The product contains batteries. Please remove the batteries when the device is not used. Do not mix batteries of different charging level or different brands.

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

Press any button three times.

Exclusion

1) Press O and – simultaneously.
2) Press Δ or X until LED glows green.
3) Press + to confirm.

Product Usage

Menu:

1. Press O and - simultaneously.
2. Press Δ or X until LED indicates desired menu position with colour:
• White - wake up the device
• Green - learning mode (adding/removing)
• Cyan - check battery level
• Yellow - the device reset*
3. Press + to confirm selection, press - to exit the menu.
4. LED will pulse twice with same colour as selected menu position to confirm completing action.

Lock Mode

KeyFob can be protected with a sequence of 2 to 5 button clicks.
When unlocking sequence is set, the device will lock itself after:
• being inactive for time set in parameter 2 (60 seconds by default),
• pressing and holding selected button (if set in parameter 2).

To enable Lock Mode:
• set sequence in parameter 1,
• set time or locking button in parameter 2 (60 seconds by default),
• set PROTECTION CC to Local Protection by Sequence (done automatically by Home Center controller).

Lock Mode will be disabled when:
• parameter 1 and/or parameter 2 is set to 0,
• PPROTECTION CC is set to Unprotected.

When device is locked:
• pushing buttons will not activate any actions,
• menu is available, but without option of resetting the device.

 
Setting the unlocking sequence using advanced parameter:

1. Calculate value of parameter using table and formula:



Value of parameter = Value of first button +
+ 8 * Value of second button + 64 * Value of third button + 
+ 512 * Value of third button + 4096 * Value of third button
2. Change the value of parameter 1 [2 bytes] to calculated value.
3. Press O and + simultaneously to wake up the device.
4. Wait for the device to configure.

Setting time to lock and locking button using advanced parameter:

1. Calculate value of parameter using table and formula:



Time to lock should be 0 or 5-255 (seconds)
Value of parameter = Time to lock in seconds +
+ 256 * Value of locking button
2. Change the value of parameter 2 [2 bytes] to calculated value.
3. Press O and + simultaneously to wake up the device.
4. Wait for the device to configure.

Sequences:
User can create sequences of two to five button to expand number of possible actions. Every sequence sends corresponding Scene ID to the Z-Wave controller with attribute "Key pressed 1 time" (see "Scene activation" on page 11). Sequences are saved in advanced parameters (no. 3-8). Activating sequence introduces delay in single, double and tripple press actions for first button in the sequence. Rules of creating sequences:
• Maximum of six sequences can be created.
• Each sequence must be unique.
• Sequence can consist of two to five button pushes.
• Sequence can contain multiple presses of the same button.
Setting a new sequence using advanced parameter:

1. Calculate value of parameter using table and formula:



Value of parameter = Value of first button +
+ 8 * Value of second button + 64 * Value of third button +
+ 512 * Value of third button + 4096 * Value of third button
2. Change the value of corresponding parameter [2 bytes] (parameters
3 to 8 for slots 1 to 6).
3. Press and simultaneously to wake up the device.
4. Wait for the device to configure.

Activating scenes:
The KeyFob can activate scenes in the Z-Wave controller by sending
scene ID and attribute of a specific action.
By default scenes are activated after single clicking or pressing and
holding any of the buttons and sequences. Other actions can be activated
in parameters 21-26.
Activating a double click will introduce delay to a single click reaction
and activating a triple click will introduce delay to a double click reaction.

Scene IDs of buttons:


Battery:
KeyFob can be powered with CR2450 (included) battery. Estimated battery life with device added once, default settings, direct range and maximum 5 pushes per day is 2 years.

Checking battery level:
KeyFob automatically warns about low battery with 3 yellow blinks,
when battery level is below value selected in parameter 3.
1. Press O and - simultaneously.
2. Press Δ or X until LED glows cyan.
3. Press +
4. LED indicates battery level with a smoothly transitioning colours, where:
• Green - 100%
• Yellow - 50%
• Red - 1%
5. Wait 2 second or press any button to exit.


Replacing the battery:

1. Using a coin, open the battery cover by turning it counter-clockwise.
2. Replace the battery.
3. Using a coin, close the battery cover by turning it clockwise.

Communication to a Sleeping device (Wakeup)

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: To wake up the device press O and + simultaneously or use 1st menu position:

1) Press O and – simultaneously.
2) Press Δ or X until LED glows white.
3) Press + to confirm.

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

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 Lifeline - reports the device status and allows for assigning single device only (main controller by default).
2 5 Square - On/Off - is assigned to clicking the square button and is used to turn on/off associated devices.
3 5 Square - Multilevel - is assigned to clicking and holding the square button and is used to turn on/off and change level of associated devices.
4 5 Circle - On/Off - is assigned to clicking the circle button and is used to turn on/off associated devices.
5 5 Circle - Multilevel - is assigned to clicking and holding the circle button and is used to turn on/off and change level of associated devices.
6 5 Cross - On/Off - is assigned to clicking the cross button and is used to turn on/off associated devices.
7 5 Cross - Multilevel - is assigned to clicking and holding the cross button and is used to turn on/off and change level of associated devices.
8 5 Triangle - On/Off - is assigned to clicking the triangle button and is used to turn on/off associated devices.
9 5 Triangle - Multilevel - is assigned to clicking and holding the triangle button and is used to turn on/off and change level of associated devices.
10 5 Minus - On/Offu201d is assigned to clicking the minus button and is used to turn on/off associated devices.
11 5 Minus - Multilevel - is assigned to clicking and holding the minus button and is used to turn on/off and change level of associated devices.
12 5 Plus - On/Off - is assigned to clicking the plus button and is used to turn on/off associated devices.
13 5 Plus - Multilevel - is assigned to clicking and holding the plus button and is used to turn on/off and change level of associated devices.

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.
