Important safety information

Read this manual before attempting to install the device! ⚠️ Failure to observe recommendations included in this manual may be dangerous or cause a violation of the law. The manufacturer, Fibar Group S.A. will not be held responsible for any loss or damage resulting from not following the instructions of operating manual. The alarm functionality of devices is an additional feature increasing the comfort level of your home automation system. If you want to use professional security service, please contact them to determine what systems can provide a protection of your estate.

Compliance with safety standards: The device is designed to be used in Z-wave home automation systems (e.g. FIBARO) and is compliant with IEC/UL/CSA 60950-1. In case of integration with another system, e.g., alarm system, it is required to verify compliance with additional standards.

General information about the FIBARO System

FIBARO is a wireless smart home automation system, based on the Z-Wave protocol. All available devices can be controlled through a computer (PC or Mac), smartphone, or tablet. Z-Wave devices are not only receivers but can also repeat the signal, increasing the Z-Wave network's range. This offers an advantage over traditional wireless systems that require a direct link between transmitter and receiver, as the building's construction could negatively affect the network's range.

Every Z-Wave network has its unique identification number (home ID). Multiple independent networks can exist in the building without interfering. Transmission security of the FIBARO System is comparable to wired systems.

Z-Wave technology is the leading solution in smart home automation. There is a wide range of Z-Wave devices that are mutually compatible, independently of manufacturer. This gives the system the ability to evolve and expand over time. For more information, visit www.fibaro.com.

#1: Description and features

#6: Association

Association (linking devices) - direct control of other devices within the Z-Wave system network, e.g., Dimmer, Relay Switch, Roller Shutter, or scene (may be controlled only through a Z-Wave controller).

The Door/Window Sensor 2 provides association of three groups:

The Door/Window Sensor 2 in the 2nd and 3rd group allows controlling 5 devices (regular or multichannel) per association group. The “Lifeline” group is reserved solely for the controller, and hence only 1 node can be assigned.

To add an association (using the Home Center controller):

  1. Go to device options by clicking the icon: [wrench icon]
  2. Select the „Advanced” tab.
  3. Specify to which group and what devices are to be associated.
  4. Save the changes.
  5. Wake up the device manually or wait for the next automatic wake up.

? NOTE: Association allows transfer of control commands between devices without participation of the main controller. Direct range between devices is recommended.

? NOTE: “Lifeline” supported Z-Wave Command Classes: Notification, Battery, Sensor Multilevel, Device Reset Locally.

#7: Advanced parameters

? NOTE: Entering invalid value of parameter will result in response with Application Rejected frame and not setting the value.

? NOTE: Parameter 2 values may be combined, e.g., 1+2=3 means that indications for opening/closing and waking up are enabled.

The Door/Window Sensor 2 allows customization of its operation to user's needs. Settings are available in the FIBARO interface as simple options that may be chosen by selecting the appropriate box.

In order to configure the Door/Window Sensor 2 (using the Home Center controller):

Wake up interval

Available settings: 0 or 3600-64800 (in seconds (1-18h), 3600s (1h) step)

Default setting: 21600 (6h)

The Door/Window Sensor will wake up after each defined time interval and always try to connect with the main controller. After a successful communication attempt, the sensor will update configuration parameters, associations, and settings and will go into standby mode. After a failed communication attempt (e.g., lack of Z-Wave range), the device will go into standby mode and retry to establish connection with the main controller after the next time interval.

Setting wake up interval to 0 disables sending Wake Up Notification frame automatically. Wake up may still be performed manually by clicking one of the TMP buttons (while the other button is pressed).

A longer time interval means less frequent communication and thus a longer battery life.
