I General information about Fibaro system

FIBARO is a wireless system, based on Z-Wave technology. FIBARO provides many advantages when compared to similar systems. In general, radio systems create a direct connection between the receiver and transmitter. But the radio signal is weakened by various obstacles located on its path (apartment walls, furniture, etc.) and in extreme cases it fails to transfer required data. The advantage of FIBARO system is that its devices apart from being transmitters and receivers of signals, they are also a signal "duplicators". When a direct connection path between the transmitter and the receiver can not be established, the connection may be achieved through other intermediate devices.

FIBARO is a bi-directional wireless system. It means that the signal is not only sent to the receivers but also the receivers send the confirmation of its reception. This operation confirms their status so to check whether they are active. Safety of the FIBARO system transmission is comparable to the safety of transmission in data bus wired systems.

FIBARO operates in the free band for data transmission. The frequency depends on radio regulations in individual country . Each FIBARO network has its own unique network identification number (home ID), which is why it is possible to co-operate two or more independent systems in a single building without any interference.

Although Z-Wave is quite new technology, it has already become recognizable and officially binding standard, similarly to Wi-Fi. Many manufacturers in various industries offer solutions based on Z-Wave technology, guaranteeing their compatibility. This means that the system is open and it may be extended in the future. Find more information at www.fibaro.com.

FIBARO generates a dynamic network structure. After FIBARO system is switched on, the location of its individual components is automatically updated in real-time through status confirmation signals received from devices operating in a "mesh" network.

The In-Wall Relay Switch is hereinafter referred to as Fibaro Switch. It is designed to switch on/off devices connected to its terminals using radio waves, controllers and a push button directly connected to Fibaro Switch.

II Assembling Fibaro Switch

CAUTION Read this manual before attempting to install the device! Failure to observe recommendations

included in this manual may be dangerous or cause a violation of the law. The manufacturer, Fibar

Group S.A. will not be held responsible for any loss or damage resulting from not following the instructions of operating manual.

CAUTION Product must be installed on a 10A line.

DANGER Danger of electrocution! Electronic switch is

Fig.2 Installation of Fibaro Relay Switch in wall switch box.

CAUTION

The switch box must be compliant with the relevant national safety standards and it's depth should not

be less than 60mm.

CAUTION

The device is designed for installation in wall switch boxes and can work only with the electrical connectors compliant with the relevant safety

standards.

NOTE

Durability of the device depends on applied load. For resistive load (light bulbs, etc.) and 6,5A current

per channel, the durability exceeds 200 000 switches.

TIPS FOR ARRANGING THE ANTENNA:

Locate the antenna as far from metal elements as possible (connecting wires, bracket rings, etc.) in order to prevent interferences.

Metal surfaces in the direct vicinity of the antenna (e.g. flush mounted metal boxes, metal door frames) may impair signal reception!

Do not cut or shorten the antenna - its length is perfectly matched to the band in which the system

operates.

NOTE

It should be noted that only the push-button connected to S1 terminal and service push-button

B enables "learning" mode (Include/ Exclude).

DICTIONARY:

• Adding (Inclusion) - Z-Wave device learning mode, allowing to add the device to existing Z-Wave network.

• Removing (Exclusion) - Z-Wave device learning mode, allowing to remove the device from existing Z-Wave network.

• Association (linking devices) - direct control of other devices within the Z-Wave system network.

• Multi-channel association - controlling other multi-channel devices within the Z-Wave network.

3. Controlling Fibaro Switch by momentary or toggle switches.

Momentary switch (after releasing the push-button a spring automatically pushes back and disconnects the button)

- Turning on/off circuit 1 or 2 - briefly press the push-button corresponding to a chosen circuit (see diagram).

Toggle switch (operates as a two-position switch, it has no spring that would push back the device after releasing manual pressure)

- Turning on/off the circuit - change the position of selected push-button from the current position.

4. Controlling Fibaro Switch using a command: ALL ON / ALL OFF

Fibaro Switch responds to commands ALL ON / ALL OFF that may be sent by the controller. ALL ON / ALL OFF commands are usually implemented in Z-Wave remote control.

By default, Fibaro Switch accepts both active commands ALL ON and ALL OFF. Settings may be changed by entering an appropriate value into configuration register no. 1 (see configuration)

5. Controlling Fibaro Switch using Home Center controller

After adding Fibaro Switch to the network, it will be represented in

Home Center by the following icon:

III Activating Fibaro Switch

1. Installing the Fibaro Switch

STEP 1

Connect the device in accordance with the wiring diagram presented in Figure 1. Switch on the mains voltage.

[Adding/Removing] Fibaro Switch [to/from] Z-wave network

STEP 2

Fibaro Switch must be placed within the range of Home Center controller, as adding mode requires direct communication with the controller.

STEP 3 Find key no. 1 which allows to switch circuit 1 on, in accordance with the diagram

STEP 4 Set the Home Center controller in add/remove mode (see the controller's manual)

STEP 5 Add Fibaro Switch to the network by pushing three times key no. 1 or push-button B located inside the housing of the device. For toggle switch perform 3 position changes.

During the installation it is recommended to use a momentary key connected to S1.

STEP 6

The controller indicates when the device is correctly added to the network, (see the manual of Home Center controller).

CAUTION

Fibaro Switch cancels the "learning" mode after key no. 1 is pressed once. Therefore, pressing key no. 1 four times will not add the devices to the

network. The same applies to push-button B.

CAUTION

Fibaro Switch is set by default to operate with toggle switches. While adding Fibaro Switch to the network with toggle switches, ensure that all switch contacts are open (off), because closing them

results in activating the push-button and this will prevent adding the device to the network.

2. Resetting Fibaro Switch

Fibaro Switch provides two methods for resetting.

Method I : Reset by removing Fibaro Switch from the existing Z-Wave network. The device may be removed using the controller that has the ability to include/exclude devices from/to Z-Wave network (see the manual of controller).

Method II : Reset by holding B button for 3 sec. after connecting mains voltage to the Switch

Fig.3 Icon of Fibaro Switch shown by Home Center controller

By default, FGS-212 device has a second hidden icon. It represents the second, virtual channel of the device triggered by the second key. The user may add the association to this channel or trigger a scene.

Turning on/off the device connected to Fibaro Switch is performed by pressing ON/OFF icon.

Association enables Fibaro Switch to directly control a device included in Z-Wave network e.g. Dimmer, Switch (ON-OFF), Roller Shutter or scene (scene may be controlled only through the Home Center controller).

Fibaro Switch provides association of three groups.

1st group is assigned to key no. 1

2nd group is assigned to key no. 2

3rd group reports state of devices. Only one device can be associated to this group.

Fibaro Switch enables user to control up to 5 normal devices, and 5 MultiChannel devices in group no. 1 and no. 2, group no. 3 has only one field. One field is reserved for the network controller.

To add an association (using the Home Center controller), go to

device options by clicking the following icon:

Select the "device options" tab. Then specify to which group and what devices are to be associated. Sending relevant information to devices added to associated groups may take even a few minutes.

FGS-212 Fibaro Switch supports the operation of multi-channel devices. Multichannel devices are devices that include two or more circuits inside one physical unit.

IV Association

Association ensures direct transfer of control commands between devices, and is performed

without participation of the main controller.

WARNING

When Fibaro Switch sends control commands and a new command is issued, then the current one command transmission is interrupted to send new

commands.
