On factory default the device does not belong to any Z-Wave network. The device needs to be added to an existing wireless network to communicate with the
devices of this network. This process is called Inclusion.
Devices can also be removed from a network. This process is called Exclusion. Both processes are initiated by the primary controller of the Z-Wave network. This
controller is turned into exclusion respective inclusion mode. Inclusion and Exclusion is then performed doing a special manual action right on the device.
Inclusion
1. Install the device according to the instructions.
2. Switch ON the bulb.
3. LED Bulb!s LED will blink 2x times to indicate that it is looking for a Z-Wave network to connect to.
Exclusion
1. Turn on the Bulb.
2. Switch the Bulb off and on 3 times in a row (between 0.5 - 2 seconds per re-power).
Quick trouble shooting
Here are a few hints for network installation if things dont work as expected.
1. Make sure a device is in factory reset state before including. In doubt exclude before include.
2. If inclusion still fails, check if both devices use the same frequency.
3. Remove all dead devices from associations. Otherwise you will see severe delays.
4. Never use sleeping battery devices without a central controller.
5. Dont poll FLIRS devices.
6. Make sure to have enough mains powered device to benefit from the meshing
Association - one device controls an other device
Z-Wave devices control other Z-Wave devices. The relationship between one device controlling another device is called association. In order to control a different
device, the controlling 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 respective association group will receive the
same wireless command wireless command, typically a 'Basic Set' Command.
Association Groups:
Group Number Maximum Nodes Description
1 1 Lifeline - Set configuration parameter 80.
Configuration Parameters
Z-Wave products are supposed to work out of the box after inclusion, however certain configuration 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.

Parameter 4: Set color that LED Bulb blinks in (Blink Mode)
Set color that LED Bulb blinks in (Blink Mode). If you set a value of 6 (2+4), LED Bulb blink between (Red -> Orange) in a cycle. If you set a value 255, LED Bulb will
blink all colors in a cycle.
