Z-wave Ir Extender Par01 User Manual

Z-Wave IR Extender PAR01 User Manual

PAR01, is a Z-Wave plus compliant Z-Wave-to-IR Bridge to control split air conditioner by receiving Z-Wave command and translating to Infrared command. With its comprehensive built-In and cloud-stored IR database (library). PAR01 can control different brands and models of air conditioners worldwide.
PAR01 is a security enabled Z-Wave plus device. A security Enabled Z-Wave Plus Controller must be used in order to fully utilize the product.
PAR01 is a Z-Wave slave device, it depends on gateway to setup particular AC brand with correct IR code. Different gateway has different user interface for setup.

This product can be included and operated in any Z-WaveTM network with other Z- WaveTM certified devices from other manufacturers and/or other applications. All non-battery operated nodes within the network will act as repeaters regardless of vendor to increase reliability of the network.

The device adopts the Z-WaveTM 500 series chip, when your Z-WaveTM network system is all made by Z-WaveTM 500 series devices.
The network system will have the advantages as below.

Specification

Overview

Adding to Z-WaveTM Network

In the first time, activate the device through battery, then it can be added into the Z-WaveTM network. First, make sure the primary controller is in the add mode. And then power on the device.

Notice 1:   The device can not work normally in the first time. Please make sure the battery is full before the first use.
Notice 2: Always RESET a Z-WaveTM device before trying to add it to a Z-WaveTM network.

Get Started

Step 1 Apply Power to PAR01

• Open the PAR01 Casing
• Install CR123A batteries
• PAR01 will detect the first applied power source to decide what
• Wave device role it will be in after included into the Z-Wave gateway: battery= sleeping device (FLiRS mode).
• Once the PAR01 is included into a Z-Wave network, the working mode (sleeping or awake) cannot be changed, unless it is excluded and re-apply the power.
• PAR01 can be included and operated in any Z-Wave network with other Z-Wave certified devices from other manufacturers and/or other applications. All non-battery operated nodes within the network will act as repeaters regardless of Vendor to increase.

reliability of the network.

Step 2 Include PAR01 to a Z-Wave Gateway

Step Procedure / Description Status Indicator

1. Refer to your primary controller to enter into the Inclusion Mode or Exclusion Mode
2. When it is prompted to enter it, please triple click the “PROG” button within 1 Green Indicator flashes TWICE then stay off

Notes:

1. It is recommended to perform the Remove (Exclude) procedure before performing an Add (Include) procedure.
2. Red Indicator flashes TWICE then stay off to represent the Add / Remove process failed, please repeat the above step again.

Step 3 Setup Automatic Status Report Association to Gateway

• Please consult your Gateway supplier for more detail. Normally, User can ignore this step during the setup. PAR01 supports 1 association group
  Association Group #1 Association Group #1 (max. 1 node) is default to associate with the primary controller (Gateway/Hub/Controller) for the Status change report, refer to below for report details:
• Current Room Temperature (report in precision of 0.5°C or 1°F) (It will be according to Configuration Parameter 39 setting to decide the trigger level)
• Current Battery Level (Only apply in Low Battery Warning happened)

Step 4 Setup Air Conditioner IR code

• The UI of set up the IR code varies from different gateways. If gateways have dedicated UI for the IR code setup please refer to the gateway UI and ignore the below steps. 
• If your gateway does not have dedicated UI for PAR01 code setup, but support Z-Wave thermostat Command Class and Configuration Command Class. You may refer to below steps to setup the IR code using the configuration options in your gateway.

Important Information

• Different brand or model of air conditioner has different For example, some air conditioner only support temperature set from 18°C – 30°C, if user set 17°C on gateway, AC Master will not respond.
• There are more than 1 code for each brand, some does not support Heat, if User selected a code that does not support Heat but Original air conditioner supports Heat Function, please continue to try next code until the correct one is selected.
• You can record down your Device Code for future reference after setting up the PAR01 correctly.

IR Code Learning

Step Procedure / Description Status Indicator

1. Refer to your primary controller user manual, enter to the browser page that can input the Configuration parameter
2. Look up Below mapping table for learning, and decide the IR setting you intend to learn next.
3. Open the Gateway’s Configuration Brower page input parameter number “25” and parameter value (according to below Mapping Table), then complete the Configuration process.
   Then Green Indicator still turns ON for indicating the IR Code Learning Start
4. Aim the Original Air Conditioner Remote at AC Master according to below position within 1-3cm Press “Power ON“ button on the Original
   Air Conditioner Remote. If the Learning is failed, repeat Step 3 to step 4
   To learn next IR code, repeat Step 2 to step 4. Successful: Green Indicator flashes TWICE Unsuccessful: Red Indicator flashes TWICE.
5. .Once you finished the IR Code Learning,
   please go to Configuration setting page on the Gateway browser and input parameter number “27” and parameter value “000” to select the dedicated AC code number “000” for learning.
   Green Indicator flashes ONCE every time if receives a command from Gateway

Tips

• Make sure your Original Remote is in Power OFF Status.
• Make sure your Original Remote set FAN Speed to AUTO and FAN SWING to AUTO/ON
• Press and Hold the Power Key on Original Remote UNTIL AC Master indicate Successful or Not.
• User need at least Learn the OFF (Parameter Value 0), and one Temperature Mode (Parameter Value 2 ~ 28) to complete the usage model.
• Keep away from Incandescent Light or Direct Sunlight during learning.
• Make sure IR Transmitter of your Original Remote alight with learning diode of AC Master, you may also slight adjust closer or further away the distance of two devices. Some of Remotes the IR transmitter in hidden behind lens and may not installed center. of remote.
• Make sure the power is good on both devices, especially the Original remote. Use Fresh Batteries in both devices recommended.

IR Learning Mapping Table (Parameter Number 25)

Important Information

• After all learning completed, User can go back to the control page on the gateway for normal operation.
• On the Gateway UI, User can only use the Temperature range from the mapping table, OFF, ON(RESUME), COOL, HEAT, DRY MODE, AUTO MODE and FAN MODE.
• If User only learnt ON(RESUME), OFF, or part of the settings according to the above table, PAR01 will send the learnt data to the Air Conditioner only. For example, User only learnt
  ON(RESUME),OFF, 22°C COOL, 24°C HEAT, PAR01 will not send the IR Data to Air Conditioner if User set 27°C Cool on the gateway.
• User can still use gateway to set up Scene and Schedule with PAR01. For example, to have AC turn on at 23°C every day at 7am, 25°C at 11pm. Just make sure the set code is learnt.
• The learning mapping table is for split Air Conditioner, which Remote Control is with LCD Display. For Window type Air Conditioner (which Remote Control is without LCD Display), the mapping table with temperatures do not apply, due to different type of IR Control Protocol. However, User may still use OFF, ON(RESUME), DRY, AUTO or FAN Key for Learning.
• (Because the POWER key on the Original Remote (without LCD Display) is toggle, user can choose either ON key or OFF key to learn Power key. After Learning is done, press once to turn on the Air Conditioner if the Air Conditioner is OFF, press once to turn OFF if the Air Conditioner is ON)

Reset to Factory Default

Press and Hold “PROG” button for 15 seconds on AC Master, the Green Indicator will light up. Then Release the “PROG”
Button until Green Indicator flashes TWICE.

Z-WaveTM Notification

After the device adding to the network, it will wake-up once per day in default. When it wake-up it will broadcast the “Wake Up Notification” message to the network, and wake-up 10 seconds for receive the setting commands.
To wake-up the device immediately, please hold down the program key, and press the top-right key once.

Z-WaveTM Message Report
