The inclusion of the device is confirmed by a tripple click on the button. Additionally the device supports the autoinclusion function and will confirm inclusion when not manually included and plugged into an outlet. A red light on the LED ring confirms inclusion. The exclusion follows the same process but is recommended to use the Reset function to remove devices from the 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 Fibar plug with power metering function is a very compact stylish and intelligent remotely operable plug for wall outlets of Type E. It can be applied to switch loads up to 2500 W and will meter the acutal and accumulated power consumption of this load. A LED ring right on the device is used to indicate switching and power load stages or general alarm conditions, but can not be tuned up to all colors of the LED spectrum.
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.
To reset the plug and delete all settings, plug the device into the outlet and keep the button on the devices pushed for about 15...20 seconds until the LED ring starts to shine yellow. Now release the button and tip the button again shortly. The LED lights red to confirm the 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.
Installation
The plug can be plugged into every wall outlet for Plug-Type E. It is IP20 rated and can therefore only be used in dry environments. Do not locate the device facing direct sunlight, humid or dusty place. The suitable ambient temperature for the device is 0°C ~ 40°C. Plugs must not be stacked and operated.
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
The inclusion of the device is confirmed by a tripple click on the button. Additionally the device supports the autoinclusion function and will confirm inclusion when not manually included and plugged into an outlet. A red light on the LED ring confirms inclusion. The exclusion follows the same process but is recommended to use the Reset function to remove devices from the network.

The exclusion follows the same process but is recommended to use the Reset function to remove devices from the network.
Product Usage
The device is operared by the little button on the device or by wireless Z-Wave commands. The function of the LED ring can be defined using configuration parameters. It is possible to signal overcurrent or general alarm conditions of the Z-Wave network. In parallel the device indicates with purple light, when the ambient temperature exceeds 55 °C.
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 |
|---|---|---|
| 3 | 1 | reports relais status to one device |
| 2 | 5 | send commands depending on current load |
| 1 | 5 | plug status. Will send BASIC command whenever the status of the plug changes |
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: Always On Function
Once activated, Wall Plug will keep a connected device constantly ON, will stop reacting to alarm frames and B-button push Size: 1 Byte, Default Value: 01

| 01 | Wall Plug memorizes its state after a power failure |
Parameter 34: Reaction to Alarm
defines the alarm types the plug reacts to. Set value may be a sum of available values, e.g. set value = 5 means the Plug will respond to general alarm (1) and CO alarm (4). Size: 1 Byte, Default Value: 3f

| 02 | Turn off connected device, LED ring signals alarm through time set in Parameter 39 or until alarm is turned off |
| 03 | Change Device state every second. In alarm mode the plug does not report status changes, power changes and ignores alarm frames. After alarm time (Parameter 39) has passed or alarm was canceled device is set back to previous state |
Parameter 39: Alarm duration

NOTE: In extreme cases, reports may be sent every second if rapid and significant power load changes occur. Frequent reporting may overload the Z-Wave network so these parameters settings should reflect significant changes in power load only. Size: 1 Byte, Default Value: 50

- 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.
