Z-Wave Plus V2 Enabled Smart Door Sensor

1. تعارف

This manual provides comprehensive instructions for the installation, operation, and maintenance of your Aeotec Recessed Door Sensor 7 (ZW187-A). This device is a Z-Wave Plus V2 enabled smart sensor designed to discreetly monitor the open/closed status of doors and windows within your smart home system. It integrates advanced Z-Wave 700 series technology for enhanced range, security, and battery efficiency.

2. پراڊڪٽ ختمview

The Aeotec Recessed Door Sensor 7 is an invisible security solution, designed to be installed within the door or window frame. It consists of two main components: the sensor unit and a magnetic contact. When the magnet moves away from the sensor, it detects an "open" state, and when it returns, it detects a "closed" state. This information is then transmitted wirelessly to your Z-Wave hub.

  • Z-Wave Plus V2 (700 Series): Utilizes the latest Z-Wave technology for improved range, faster communication, and lower power consumption.
  • اسمارٽ اسٽارٽ فعال: Simplifies the pairing process with compatible Z-Wave hubs by scanning a QR code.
  • S2 سيڪيورٽي: Provides advanced encryption for secure communication within your Z-Wave network.
  • ريسسڊ ڊيزائن: Installs discreetly within door or window frames, maintaining aesthetic appeal.
  • ڊگھي بيٽري زندگي: Optimized for extended battery performance, typically 2+ years with standard usage.

  2. Insert the CR2 battery, ensuring correct polarity. If a plastic pull tab is present, remove it.
  3. سينسر بند ڪريو casinجي محفوظ طور تي.

Note: The device uses a CR2 battery, not a CR123A as sometimes mistakenly listed.

4.2. Pairing with a Z-Wave Hub (Inclusion)

The Recessed Door Sensor 7 supports SmartStart for easy pairing and traditional Z-Wave inclusion.

SmartStart Inclusion (Recommended)

SmartStart enabled products can be added into a Z-Wave network by scanning the Z-Wave QR Code present on the sensor or its packaging with a controller providing SmartStart inclusion. No further action is required, and the SmartStart product will be added automatically within 10 minutes of being switched on in the network vicinity.

  1. Ensure your Z-Wave hub supports SmartStart.
  2. Open your Z-Wave hub's mobile application and select the option to add a new device using SmartStart or by scanning a QR code.
  3. Scan the QR code located on the sensor unit or its packaging.
  4. Power on the sensor (ensure battery is installed). The sensor will automatically attempt to pair with the hub.

Manual Inclusion (Traditional Pairing)

  1. Place your Z-Wave hub into inclusion/pairing mode (refer to your hub's manual for specific instructions).
  2. With the sensor powered on, press the action button on the sensor unit once. The LED indicator may flash to confirm inclusion mode.
  3. If successful, your hub will confirm the device has been added.
  4. If pairing fails, ensure the sensor is within range of the hub and repeat the process. You may need to exclude the device first if it was previously paired or attempted to pair unsuccessfully.

4.3. جسماني تنصيب

The Recessed Door Sensor 7 is designed for discreet installation within the door or window frame.

  1. جڳھ چونڊيو: Identify a suitable location on the top edge of your door or window frame where both the sensor and magnet can be recessed. The magnet should be installed in the moving part (door/window) and the sensor in the stationary frame, or vice-versa.
  2. سوراخ سوراخ: Using an appropriate drill bit (typically 19mm or 3/4 inch), drill two holes approximately 1 inch deep for the sensor and magnet. Ensure the holes are aligned and close enough for the sensor to detect the magnet when the door/window is closed (typically within 1/2 inch).
  3. اجزاء داخل ڪريو: Gently push the sensor unit and the magnetic contact into their respective drilled holes. Ensure they are flush with the surface.
  4. ٽيسٽ: Open and close the door/window to verify that your Z-Wave hub registers the open/closed status correctly. Adjust placement if necessary.

  • Check your hub's device handler or driver for the sensor; ensure it's up-to-date.
Poor wireless range
  • Z-Wave signals can be affected by metal objects or thick walls.
  • Consider adding Z-Wave repeaters (other mains-powered Z-Wave devices) between the sensor and your hub to extend the network.
Inaccurate battery reporting or short battery life
  • Ensure you are using a fresh, high-quality CR2 battery.
  • Verify your Z-Wave hub's firmware and device handler for the sensor are current.
  • Frequent reporting or a high number of daily activations can reduce battery life.
  • Some hubs may require specific configuration settings (e.g., wakeup interval) to optimize battery life. Consult your hub's documentation or Aeotec support.
