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

 

You want to be in control of your smart home? With the KFOB-C remote control you can switch the lights, the heating and window blinds with only one touch of a button. Using the KFOB-C remote control is as simple as using your car key remote control – and it is equally small and compact and suits to your key ring. Furthermore the robust sliding cover prevents involuntary touches of the buttons.
 
The KFOB-C remote control could be used as primary controller and secondary controller as well. With the buttons 3 and 4 new Z-Wave devices can be added to the KFOB Controller. Equally you can remove devices from your Z-Wave network.
 
Due to primary controller function you can use the KFOB as standalone remote control as well without using any smart home gateway. Devices such as sockets, window blinds, dimmer, lights and electronic door locks can be switched by KFOB-C directly.
 
Once one device is added to KFOB remote control it checks the device type (switch, dimmer,…) and assigns the buttons with correct commands.
 
Of course you can also include the KFOB-C to an existing Z-Wave smart home network. Therewith you have the possibility to trigger predefined scenes such as the opening of the garage door with simultaneous switching on all lights in your garden by only one touch of a button. Or start the scenario “Good night” which switches off al lights and electrical devices in your house with only one touch of a button when you go to bed.

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.

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.

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
