5.2 Z-Wave Network Inclusion (Pairing)
To integrate the siren alarm into your Z-Wave network:
- Place your Z-Wave controller or gateway into inclusion/pairing mode. Refer to your controller's manual for specific instructions.
- Follow the device-specific instructions (usually a button press sequence) to put the siren alarm into pairing mode.
- Once successfully paired, the siren alarm will appear in your Z-Wave controller's device list.
Important Compatibility Note for SmartThings Users:
- The NEO Z-Wave Plus Siren Alarm is designed to work with SmartThings.
- For access to all advanced features, including customizable chimes, volume, and tone adjustments, the SmartThings Classic app and a custom device handler (DTH) are required.
- The newer SmartThings app and Edge platform may not fully support all advanced features without a compatible DTH, which may no longer be manually addable. The device may function as a basic siren in these newer environments.
- This device is not compatible with Wink, Ring, Iris, or certain alarm panels like Vivint (unless custom actions are configured on the panel, which is not officially supported by NEO).
6. Operating Instructions
Once successfully paired with your Z-Wave gateway, the siren alarm can be controlled and configured through your Z-Wave controller's interface or associated smart home application.
6.1 Triggering Alarms and Chimes
The siren alarm can be triggered by various events configured within your Z-Wave network. This typically involves:
- Association with Sensors: Link the siren alarm to other Z-Wave sensors (e.g., motion, door/window, smoke, water leak) so that when a sensor is triggered, the siren activates.
- Scene Activation: Include the siren alarm in smart home scenes or routines that activate under specific conditions (e.g.,
