Important safety information

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.

This product is not a toy. Keep away from children and animals!
CR2032 coin cell battery is harmful if swallowed!

Battery pack warning!

The Heat Controller contains lithium-ion polymer battery pack, heed all
following warnings:

• If an unusual odor or malfunction is detected, avoid sources of

open ame and remove the device from the radiator.

• In the event of damage from crashes, etc., carefully remove to a

safe place for at least a half hour to observe.

• Do not leave the device unattended while charging.

• Do not attempt to replace the battery!

General information about
the FIBARO System

FIBARO is a wireless smart home automation system, based on the
Z-Wave protocol. All of available devices can be controlled through
a computer (PC or Mac), smartphone or tablet. Z-Wave devices are
not only receivers, but can also repeat the signal, increasing the
Z-Wave network’s range. It gives advantage over traditional wireless
systems that require direct link between transmitter and receiver, as
a result the construction of the building could aect network’s range
negatively.

Every Z-Wave network has its unique identication number (home
ID). Multiple independent networks can exist in the building without
interfering. Transmission security of FIBARO System is comparable to
wired systems.

Z-Wave technology is the leading solution in smart home automation.
There is a wide range of Z-Wave devices that are mutually
compatible, independently of manufacturer. It gives the system the
ability to evolve and expand over time. For more information visit:

radiator valves.

You can create schedules via app to easily manage temperature
throughout the week.

Main features of FIBARO Heat Controller:

• to be installed on three types of valves: M30 x 1.5, Danfoss RTD-N
and Danfoss RA-N,

3

• supports Z-Wave network Security Modes: S0 with AES-128
encryption and S2 with PRNG-based encryption,

• built-in battery recharged through standard micro-USB port,

• easy installation - no tools required,

• can use a dedicated temperature sensor - FGBRS-001,

• supports heating schedules,

• automatic calibration,

• anti-freeze function,

• descaling function,

• unconstrained rotation spherical knob to set desired temperature.

FIBARO Heat Controller is a fully
compatible Z-Wave PLUS device.

adapters, double check
that it is mounted
properly. It should
click when putting on
the valve, hold tight
after installing and
not rotate!

#2: Basic activation

1. Connect the charger to the micro-USB port to charge the device.
The LED ring will pulse red if it’s not fully charged; otherwise, it
will pulse green.

If you have the temperature sensor:

a. Use a coin to open the battery cover by turning it coun-

ter-clockwise.
b. Remove the sticker underneath the battery.
c. Use a coin to close the battery cover by turning it clockwise.

2. Disconnect the charger when the LED ring pulses green (device
fully charged).

3. Dismount your current thermostatic head.

Proceed normally

M30 x 1.5

Use adapter:

Danfoss RTD-N

CAUTION

!

If the device is installed
in vertical position, set
bit 5 in parameter 2.

CAUTION

!

Do not cover or veil the
thermostatic head.

BASIC ACTIVATION

Use adapter:

Danfoss RA-N

4. Depending on type of your thermostatic valve:

5. Mount the device on the valve and tighten it by turning the cap
clockwise.

6. Press and hold the button for at least one second (A) or use the
included key to quickly triple click the button (B).

B.A.

7. The LED ring will start blinking blue.

If you have the temperature sensor:

a. Click the button on the temperature sensor

now.

b. The LED ring on the thermostatic valve will

blink green 5 times if the connection was successful.

#3: Adding to Z-Wave network

Adding (Inclusion) - Z-Wave device learning mode, allowing to add

the device to existing Z-Wave network.

To add the device to the Z-Wave network:

1. Make sure the device is within the direct range of your Z-Wave
controller.

2. Set the main controller in (security/non-security) add mode (see
the controller’s manual)

3. Quickly triple click the button on the thermostatic head (A) or use
the included key (B).

A. B.

4. The LED ring will start blinking white.

5. If you are adding in S2 authenticated mode, type in the device pin
code (underlined part of the public key on the label).

6. Wait for the adding process to end.

7. Successful adding will be conrmed by the Z-Wave controller and
green LED colour.

#4: Removing the device

NOTE

i

Removing the device
from the Z-Wave net­work restores all the
default parameters of
the device.

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

To remove the device from the Z-Wave network:

1. Make sure the device is within the direct range of your Z-Wave
controller.

2. Set the main controller into remove mode (see the controller’s
manual).

3. Quickly triple click the button on the thermostatic head (A) or use
the included key (B).

A. B.

4. The LED ring will start blinking white.

5. Wait for the removing process to end.

6. Successful removing will be conrmed by the Z-Wave controller
and red LED colour.

#5: Controlling the temperature

You can set temperature using app (10-30°C) or directly on the device
(16-24°C).

During manual temperature change LED ring colour corresponds to
the temperature set-point.

To check and change the temperature on the device:

1. Bring your hand close to the sphere.

2. LED ring will:

• Glow if temperature was set manually,

• Pulse slowly if device is in schedule mode,

• Pulse quickly if device is in override schedule mode.

With colour depending on set temperature:

#6: Extra temperature sensor

NOTE

i

FGBRS-001 is the only
compatible tempera­ture sensor.

CAUTION

!

This product is not a
toy. Keep away from
children and animals!

The device can be used with an additional, dedicated temperature
sensor (FGBRS-001) to provide the best temperature regulation.

It should be placed in the same room or heating zone as the thermo­static head which will use it as a reference point for the room temper­ature.

Before using, the sensor must be paired with the thermostatic head.
One thermostatic head can be paired with only one sensor, but one
sensor can be paired with up to three thermostatic heads.

To pair the FGBRS-001 with the device:

1. Press and hold the button on the thermostatic head (A) or use the
included key (B).

2. Release the button when you see blue LED colour.

3. Click the button to conrm the selection, the LED ring will start
blinking blue.

4. Within 1 minute click the button on the sensor.

5. The LED ring on thermostatic head will glow green to conrm suc­cessful pairing.

6. Place the sensor in same room as head, no further than 5 meters
from it.

To remove all paired heads from the sensor’s memory:

1. Press and hold the button on the sensor for 2 seconds.

2. The LED on the sensor will blink 3 times to conrm unpairing.
