Operating the Device

The siren can be turned on and off using wireless commands. To protect this communica-
tion from misuse is strongly recommended to operate the siren in secure communication
mode. The secure communication is activated on default during inclusion unless explicitly
suppressed. When activated the siren will generate a 105 dB alarm sound and a flash light.
This behavior can be configured as well using configuration parameter 5 (submenu item).
Make sure to deactivate the tamper protection before removing an included siren from the
mounting plate.
Back to Factory Default
To reset the device keep the inclusion button pushed for 10 seconds. After 5 seconds the
LED starts flashing and after another 5 seconds there is a short beep signaling the success-
ful reset back to factory defaults. Use this procedure only when the network primary control-
ler is missing or otherwise inoperable.

Node Information Frame

The Node Information Frame is the business card of a Z-Wave device. It contains informa-
tion about the device type and the technical capabilities. The inclusion and exclusion of the
device is confirmed by sending out a Node Information Frame. Beside this it may be needed
for certain network operations to send out a Node Information Frame.
Every click on the inclusion button (ill. 2 (B)) issues a Node Information Frame.

Associations

Z-Wave devices control other Z-Wave devices. The relationship between one device con-
trolling another device is called association. In order to control a different device, the con-
trolling device needs to maintain a list of devices that will receive controlling commands.
These lists are called association groups and they are always related to certain events (e.g.
button pressed, sensor triggers, ...). In case the event happens all devices stored in the res-
pective association group will receive a common wireless command.

Configuration Parameters

Z-Wave products are supposed to work out of the box after inclusion, however certain con-
figuration can adapt the function better to user needs or unlock further enhanced features.
IMPORTANT: Controllers may only allow configuring signed values. In order to set values in
the range 128... 255 the value sent in the application shall be the desired value minus 256.
For example: to set a parameter to 200 it may be needed to set a value of 200 minus 256 =
minus 56. In case of a two byte value the same logic applies: Values greater than 32768 may
needed to be given as negative values too.
