1 Safety rules

Read the instructions below carefully before proceeding to device installation so as to
avoid electric shock, injury etc.

CAUTION!!!

The ZWMA module is powered by 230V alternating current. Electric shock hazard.

When installing the ZWMA module it is crucial to pay close attention to the following
recommendations:

● Installation should be performed by a qualified individual following manufacturer's
instructions.

● Connecting the module should be performed with power supply disconnected at all times.

● After unpacking, check module elements for any signs of mechanical damage.

● Before connecting the module, make sure that the power supply voltage corresponds with

that provided on the data plate.

● Plastic containers used for packing should be kept out of children's reach as thy may be a
potential source of hazard.

● The ZWMA module should be used for its intended purpose in agreement with its design.
The FAKRO Company shall not be held responsible for any consequences resulting from
improper module use.

● Any activities relating to cleaning, adjustment or disassembly of the module should be
preceded with its disconnection from the mains.

● The module should not be cleaned using any solvent substances or open stream of water
(do not immerse in water).

● Any module repairs should be carried out by the manufacturer authorised service.

● Electric cables supplying electricity to the source of power must have suitable area

(2x1mm2). The permissible cable length for the area specified above is 30 rm.

● The permissible length of cables plugged into digital inputs is 5 rm.

● The ZWMA adaptive module is intended for indoor installation.

2 Description of ZWMA module

ZWMA adaptive module fulfils the function of a controller and enables remote control of electrical
accessories compatible with Z-Wave system, e.g. ZWS12 and ZWS230 actuators for operating FAKRO roof
windows. The module is equipped with four digital inputs, 3-contact (no.3 Figure 1) to which potential-free
signals from different external devices are connected, e.g. thermostat, timer, KNX/EIB system, etc. The module
can operate up to 231 devices simultaneously or in groups.

“SELECT” button (no. 3 – Figure 1) makes it possible to choose one from four channels (no.1 – Figure 1) to which
devices such as ZWS12, ZWS230 actuators can be assigned. Channels correspond to the digital inputs (no. 8 –

Figure 1). Devices associated with the channel 1 are operated from the digital input 1, channel 2 - operated
from the digital input 2 etc...

ZWMA adaptive module is equipped with a two-way radio communication system Z-Wave, which uses radio
frequency of 868,42 MHz.

Module controlling

Devices assigned to the channel are controlled as follows:

close – short (< 0,5s) short-circuit of contact 1-2 or pressing the button “down”
open- short (<0,5s) short-circuit of contact 2-3 or pressing the button “up”

stop - short-circuit (>1s) of contact 1-2-3

Multilevel mode. Longer short-circuit (>0,5s) of contacts 1-2 or 2-3 will switch on device (open / close)

and opening of contacts – (stop).

3 Installation of ZWMA module

The ZWMA module should be mounted onto a wall or other permanent element of the building by
means of screws driven into cylindrical plugs inserted into openings drilled in the wall. In order to install the
ZWMA module, it is necessary to:

1. Take off the cover terminal of the casing.

2. Remount casing to the wall using screws.

3. Make all the necessary electric conections.

4. Screw the cover terminal of the casing .

4 Module programming

In order to operate electric FAKRO accessories equipped with the Z-WAVE system by means of
the ZWMA adaptive module, it is necessary to:

1. Add the device to be operated by means of the module to the “Z-Wave” system – see ZWP10 remote
control and ZWK10, ZWK1 keyboards manuals, chapter “Adding device to the network (INCLUDE
function)” or other controller working in the Z-Wave system. If the device is already operated with one
of the controllers, proceed to section 2.

2. Add the module to the Z-Wave network as a SECONDARY controller, chapter 4.1 (LEARN MODE
function).

and

3. Associate the device with a selected channel in the module (No. 1, Figure 1) specifying the task to be
performed by it (chapter 4.2, ASSOCIATE function).

Note!!! Any device which is physically removed from the network (e.g. damaged) should be deleted from the
memory of the controller (PRIMARY, SECONDARY), that is first deleted from the pair of buttons (section

3.4) and then removed from the network (section 3.5). The correct implementation of the procedures is to
ensure optimal communication between devices. Unplugging the device without removing it from the controller
memory will result in a prolonged reaction time to commands and faster depletion of the controller battery. If it
is necessary to remove the damaged equipment, whose removal from the controller memory is not possible, it is
desirable to reconfigure the whole network (all devices). Start a new network configuration from restoring the
controller to the factory settings (DEFAULT function), then call the EXCLUDE function of devices working
correctly and continue to the section 3, "Controller Programming".

Note!!! Moving the device within the network (e.g. socket module) it is recommended to delete it from the
controller memory (delete it from the pair of buttons first (section 3.4) and then remove from the network
(section 3.5) and then add it again after installation in new place of work.
