The installation of your Door Window Sensor has two major
steps: the Main Sensor and the Magnet. Your Door Window
Sensor will use wireless technology to talk to your Z-Wave
network once paired to your Z-Wave network.

Selecting where you'll place your Door/Window Sensor in your

home is just as important as the actual afxing it to the surface.

Whether it’s for security or intelligence purposes, your sensor:

1.

Should be affixed indoors and away from sources of
moisture.

2.

Placed within 30 meters of another Z-Wave device that is
either a gateway or not powered by batteries.

3.

The magnet and the main sensor must be less than 2cm

apart. Main sensor must be afxed to the door or window
and the magnet must be afxed to the frame. The magnet

and the main sensor must separate when the door or
window is opened.

4.

Should not be mounted on a metal frame.

Afx your Sensor plates to a surface.

The Mounting plates can be affixed using screws or double­sided tape.
If you are using screws, attach both mounting plates to the
respective surface using the two 20mm screws provided.

If you are using double-sided tape, wipe the two surfaces clean
of any oil or dust with a damp towel. When the surface has
completely dried, peel one side of the tape back and attach it
to the corresponding section on the rear side of the mounting
plates.

Adding your Sensor to your Z-Wave network

With your mounting plates prepared to hold each component of
your sensor, it’s time to add it to your Z-Wave network.

1.

Let your Z-Wave primary controller/gateway enter into
adding/inclusion mode.

2.

Take your Sensor near to your primary controller.

3.

Press the Action Button once on your Sensor.

4.

If your Door Window Sensor has been successfully added
to your Z-Wave network, its Status LED will fast blink for 2
seconds and then be solid for 2 seconds when you press the
Action Button again. If the adding was unsuccessful and the
Status LED continues to fast blink for 8 seconds and then
slow blink for 3 seconds, repeat the above steps.

With your Door Window Sensor now working as a part of

your smart home, you’ll be able to congure it from your home

control software or phone application. Please refer to your
software’s user guide for precise instructions on configuring
Door Window Sensor to your needs.

.

Attach your sensor to its plates.

With your sensor added to your Z-Wave network, it's now time
to insert each main part of your sensor into the corresponding
sensor plate.

1.

Insert the larger of your two sensor parts into the large
mounting plate ensuring that the dlmple on the front is on the
same side as the smaller mounting plate.

2.

lnsert the smaller of your two sensor parts into its mounting
plate.

Advanced functions.

Send a wake up notification.

In order to send your Sensor new configuration commands
from your Z-Wave controller or gateway, it will need to be woken
up.

1.2.Remove your Sensor unit from its Back Mounting Plate, press
the Action Button on the back of the Sensor unit and then
release the Action Button. This will trigger and send a wake

up notication command to your controller/gateway.

If you want your Sensor to keep awake for a longer time,
press and hold the Action Button on the back of the Sensor
unit for 3 seconds, then your Sensor will wake up for 10
minutes and the Status LED will fast blink while it is awake.

Removing your Sensor from your Z-Wave network.

Your sensor can be removed from your Z-Wave network at any
time. You'll need to use your Z-Wave network's main controller/

gateway. To do this, please refer to the part of their respective
manuals that tell you how to remove devices from your network.

1.

Put your primary controller into device removal mode.

2.

Unlock your Sensor from the Back Mount plate and take the
Sensor unit near to your primary controller.

3.

Press the Action Button on your Sensor.

4.

If your Door Window Sensor has been successfully removed
from your Z-Wave network, its Status LED will fast blink for 8
seconds and then slow blink for 3 seconds when you press
the Action Button again. If the removing was unsuccessful,
the Status LED will fast blink for 2 seconds and then be solid
for 2 seconds when you press the Action Button, repeat the
above steps.

Security or Non-security feature of your Sensor in Z-wave
network.

Including Door/Window Sensor as a non-secure device:

If you want your Sensor as a non-security device in your Z-wave
network, you just need to press the Action Button once on Door
Window Sensor when you use a controller/gateway to add/
include your Sensor.

Including Door/Window Sensor as a secure device:

In order to take full advantage of all functionality the Door
Window Sensor, you may want your Sensor is a security device
that uses secure/encrypted message to communicate in Z-wave
network, so a security enabled controller/gateway is needed
for the Door Window Sensor to be used as a security device.

You need to press the Sensor’s Action Button 2 times within
1 second when your security controller/gateway starts the
network inclusion.

Factory Reset your Sensor.

If your primary controller is missing or inoperable, you may
wish to reset all of your Door Window Sensor’s settings to their
factory defaults. To do this, press and hold the Action Button
for 20 seconds and Status LED will be solid for 2 seconds to

conrm a success.
