Smoke-Control

SKU: FGSD-002

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

Product Description

Smoke-Control is a universal, optical Z-Wave smoke detector. A fire alarm is signaled by sound, visual indicator blinking, and sending Z-Wave alarm and control commands.The optical sensor detects smoke at an early stage of fire, often before flames appear and the temperature rises significantly. Moreover, thedevice has a built-in temperature sensor, a programmable indicator of exceeding the set temperature level.Smoke-Control is designed to be placed on a wall or ceiling. Visual indicator signals fire operating mode and are used to see if the device iswithin the Z-Wave network. Smoke-Control is designed to operate in confined spaces under normal conditions (lacking smoke, dust, condensed water vapor).

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.

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

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 NumberMaximum NodesDescription

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: Smoke-Control sensitivity

There are 3 levels of sensitivity to smoke presence. Level 1 means the highest sensitivity. Rising the parameter value lowers the sensitivity to smoke presence.
Size: 1 Byte, Default Value: 2

SettingDescription

Parameter 10: Temperature report interval

Time interval between consecutive temperature reports. Report is sent when new temperature value is different from the one previously reported – according to the set hysteresis (parameter 21). Temperature reports can be also sent as a result of polling.
Size: 2 Byte, Default Value: 1

SettingDescription

Parameter 11: Temperature report hysteresis

The temperature report will only be sent if there is a difference in temperature value from the previous value reported, defined in this parameter (hysteresis). Temperature reports can be also sent as a result of polling.
Size: 1 Byte, Default Value: 10

SettingDescription

Parameter 12: Temperature threshold

Temperature value measured by the built-in temperature sensor above which the excess temperature notification is sent (visual indication/sound/Z-Wave report).
Size: 1 Byte, Default Value: 55

SettingDescription

Parameter 13: Excess temperature signaling interval

Time interval of signaling (visual indication/sound) excess temperature level.
Size: 2 Byte, Default Value: 1

SettingDescription

Parameter 14: Lack of Z-Wave range indication interval

Time interval of signaling (visual indication/sound) lack of Z-Wave range.
Size: 2 Byte, Default Value: 180

SettingDescription

Parameter 2: Z-Wave notifications status

This parameter allows to activate excess temperature and/or casing opening notifications sent to the main controller.
Size: 1 Byte, Default Value: 0

SettingDescription

Parameter 3: Visual indicator notifications status

This parameter allows to activate visual indications but does not apply to major alarms, such as Fire, Trouble and Low battery alarm.
Size: 1 Byte, Default Value: 0

SettingDescription

Parameter 4: Sound notifications status

This parameter allows to activate sound signals but does not apply to major alarms, such as Fire, Trouble and Low battery alarm.
Size: 1 Byte, Default Value: 0

SettingDescription

Parameter 5: Configuration of control frames in BASIC command class

This parameter defines which frames will be sent in the 2-nd Association Group (SMOKE ALARM). The values of BASIC ON and BASIC OFF frames may be defined as described in further parameters.
Size: 1 Byte, Default Value: 0

SettingDescription

Parameter 6: BASIC ON frame value

BASIC ON frame is sent in case of smoke presence detection and Fire Alarm triggering. Its value is defined by the parameter.
Size: 2 Byte, Default Value: 255

SettingDescription

Parameter 7: BASIC OFF frame value

BASIC OFF frame is sent in case of Fire Alarm cancellation. Its value is defined by the parameter
Size: 2 Byte, Default Value: 0

SettingDescription

Parameter 8: Alarm broadcast

A value other than 0 means that alarms are being sent in broadcast mode, i.e. to all devices within Smoke-Controls range.
Size: 1 Byte, Default Value: 0

SettingDescription

Parameter 9: Associations in Z-Wave network security mode

This parameter defines how commands are sent in specified association groups: as secure or non-secure. Parameter is active only in Z-Wave network security mode. It doesnt apply to 1st Lifeline group.
Size: 1 Byte, Default Value: 15

Explanation of Z-Wave specific terms
