Fibaro Door/Window Sensor FGK-101-107 v2.1 Operating Manual

Introduction

The Fibaro Door/Window Sensor (FGK-101-107 v2.1) is a wireless, battery-powered, Z-Wave compatible reed sensor. It detects the opening or closing of doors, windows, garage gates, etc., by sensing the separation of its two parts: the sensor body and a magnet. It also supports a DS18B20 temperature sensor and has a potential-free input. It is designed for use in home automation, alarm, and surveillance systems.

Technical Information

? Connections should be made specifically according to the diagrams. Incorrect connections may be hazardous or lead to device damage.

Fibaro System Overview

Fibaro is a bidirectional wireless system based on Z-Wave technology. Unlike traditional radio systems where signals can be easily blocked, Fibaro devices act as signal repeaters, creating a mesh network that enhances reliability. Each Fibaro network has a unique Home ID, allowing multiple systems to coexist without interference. Z-Wave is an accepted standard, ensuring compatibility with devices from various manufacturers, making the system future-proof. Fibaro establishes a dynamic network structure, with device location data updated automatically in real-time.

Sensor Installation

Follow these steps for installation:

  1. Connect the Fibaro Door/Window Sensor according to the appropriate diagram (if necessary).
  2. Place the battery inside the sensor's casing.
  3. Include the sensor into the Z-Wave network.
  4. Install the Fibaro Door/Window Sensor, observing Diagram 4 for correct positioning.

Conductor Markings:

? To ensure accurate position detection, always install the magnet in relation to the sensor's body as shown in Diagram 4.

? The Fibaro Door/Window Sensor has two [Tamper Button]s – one inside and one on the underside of the casing. During normal operation, both [Tamper Button]s must be secured. Do not use the sensor with the casing open.

? The [Tamper Button] on the underside has two functions: 1. Sets the device into learn mode (Include/Exclude from Z-Wave network). 2. Acts as a tamper button. After correct installation (Diagrams 5 and 6), removing the sensor or opening its casing may release the [Tamper Button] and trigger an alarm. For the [Tamper Button] to function as a tamper alert, the second association group must be configured (optionally, using Parameter 13).

Diagram Descriptions:

Diagram 1 - General: Shows the top view of the sensor with terminals labeled: TMP, TP (VDQ), TD (DQ), GND, IN.

Diagram 2 - Connection to DS18B20 sensor: Illustrates connecting a DS18B20 temperature sensor to the TP, TD, and GND terminals. The maximum lead length of 30m is indicated.

Diagram 3 - Example connection - momentary switch: Shows a simple circuit connecting a bell push button (momentary switch) to the IN and GND terminals.

Diagram 4 - Correct positioning of the Sensor and the magnet: Depicts the sensor body and magnet placed close together (maximum 5mm separation) for optimal detection.

Diagram 5 - Correct sensor installation: A visual example of the sensor and magnet mounted on a door frame and door, respectively.

Diagram 6 - Incorrect sensor installation: A visual example showing the sensor and magnet too far apart for reliable detection.

Using the [Input Terminal]:

The sensor has one potential-free [Input Terminal]. Its status can be modified by the sensor itself or by sending a GND signal to the [Input Terminal] (Diagram 3). If the sensor is used only as a binary sensor, the magnet does not need to be installed.

Using the DS18B20 Temperature Sensor:

The DS18B20 temperature sensor can be installed in locations requiring precise temperature readings. It can be protected and installed in humid conditions, underwater, sealed in concrete, or placed under floors.

Antenna Arrangement Instructions

? The antenna should be placed above the battery. Never cut, shorten, or bend the antenna, as its length is optimized for the system's operating band.

? Metal surfaces in close proximity (e.g., metal switch boxes, metal door trims) may impair reception capability.

Battery Use

The Fibaro Door/Window Sensor's battery life is up to 2 years with default settings. The current battery level is displayed in the Home Center 2 configuration interface. When the battery icon turns red, replacement is needed. To avoid triggering an alarm during battery replacement, the second association group must be deleted, and the sensor's configuration reset to default before changing the battery.

? The Door/Window Sensor is equipped with a built-in LED. The LED blinks each time the sensor changes state. Slow blinking indicates correct inclusion; rapid blinking indicates an inclusion error.

? Whenever changes are made to the TP and TD lines (1-wire), such as connecting or disconnecting the DS18B20 sensor, it is necessary to perform exclusion and re-inclusion of the sensor module into the Z-Wave network. The system enters learning mode only after the connected DS18B20 sensor is detected (approx. 10 seconds).

? Do not connect sensors other than DS18B20 to the 1-wire line (TP and TD terminals).

? Connecting the TP and TD lines to devices not compatible with the 1-wire protocol is prohibited.

Fibaro Sensor Start-up

1. Installation of the Door/Window Sensor

Step 1: Install the device observing Diagram 4 for correct positioning of the sensor and magnet. Close the sensor's casing.

Step 2: The Fibaro module must be within range of the Home Center 2 controller for the inclusion procedure, which requires direct communication.

Step 3: Locate the [Tamper Button] (on the underside of the device) for proper device inclusion.

2. Resetting the Fibaro Door/Window Sensor

To reset the sensor and clear its memory (including controller and Z-Wave network data), follow these steps:

  1. Remove the sensor's cover and battery. Ensure the [Tamper Button] is intact.
  2. Touch the sensor's body with a magnet.
  3. Insert the battery.
  4. Remove the magnet from the sensor's body.
  5. Remove the battery.
  6. Re-install the battery.
  7. A double LED blink will confirm the reset.

? Resetting the device memory does not remove it from the Z-Wave network's main controller memory. To re-include the device, it must first be excluded, either before or after the reset procedure.

3. Controlling the Fibaro Door/Window Sensor with the Home Center 2 Controller

The Door/Window Sensor is a multichannel device, featuring an independent input circuit and a 1-wire bus for the DS18B20 temperature sensor. Each function is represented by an independent icon in the system (e.g., Sensor icon, DS18B20 temperature sensor icon).

? If a temperature sensor icon is not displayed or readings are incorrect despite connection, inspect the 1-wire bus connections, especially between sensor outputs and the line, and ensure the total bus wire length does not exceed 30m.

Association

Association allows the Fibaro Door/Window Sensor to directly control other Z-Wave devices (e.g., Dimmer, Switch, Roller Shutter) or trigger scenes (via Home Center 2). The sensor supports three association groups:

The sensor can control up to 5 regular and 5 multichannel devices per group. To add an association using the Home Center 2 controller, navigate to device options, select the device options tab, and specify associated devices and groups.

? Association enables direct command transmission between devices without the main controller's involvement, allowing communication even if the controller fails.

? Any new association order given while commands are being sent cancels the previous one.

Configuration Parameters

The Door/Window Sensor offers advanced settings configurable via the Fibaro configuration interface (e.g., Home Center 2). Access these by clicking the device icon and selecting the device options tab.

Parameter Details:

? Activating scene functionality may reduce battery life by up to 25%.

Additional Functionality

Alarm Frame Support

The Fibaro System allows configuration of the device's reaction to alarms (SENSOR_ALARM_REPORT frame). The Door/Window Sensor sends different alarm frame types based on Parameter no. 5 settings. Users should declare the appropriate alarm frame type for connected sensors to ensure correct interpretation by other Z-Wave devices.

Door / Window Sensor Operation

The Fibaro Door/Window Sensor can be operated using:
