WADWAZ-1

Radio Frequency Controlled

Wireless Door / Window Sensor

NOTE: This unit must be “included in the Network” only where it will be permanently installed. The proper operation of this node in the mesh network is dependent on it knowing its location with respect to other nodes. You cannot “test bench” conﬁ gure this module, then install.

WADWAZ-1 WIRELESS DOOR / WINDOW SENSOR

Linear’s family of Z-Wave™ certiﬁ ed wireless lighting controls (switches, dimmers, outlets and plug-in modules) and Security devices (alert sounder, passive infrared sensor and door/window transmitter) brings a new level of intelligent wireless capability to commercial and residential environments.

The Z-Wave wireless protocol is an international wireless standard for remote home automation, security and other applications. Embedded in each device, the Z-Wave smart chip enables two-way RF communication among hundreds of Z-Wave enabled devices, allowing products and services from multiple manufacturers to work seamlessly.

Linear Z-Wave products are easy to install, and allow dealers to create an integrated wireless network with nearly limitless expansion and interoperability with security and health monitoring systems, energy management, home entertainment, appliances, and more.

The WADWAZ-1 sensor monitors a door or window and sends Z-Wave signals when the door is opened or closed.

For indoor use only. Retain instructions for future use.

INSTALLATION

If installing an entire Z-Wave system for the ﬁ rst time, refer to the installation guide of the Z-Wave Interface Controller before installing the door/window sensor.

For “Inclusion” to (adding to) a network:

Refer to your Controller operating instructions to add this module under the command of the Wireless Controller.

1.Unscrew the screw fastening the rear cover and slide the rear cover down.

2.Insert a CR123A battery into the battery compartment and LED will start to ﬂ ash slowly, which means the sensor has not yet performed “inclusion” with the Controller.

3.Prepare the Controller to include a unit to the network by adding it to a group (method of adding a node to the network). Refer to the Controller instructions.

4.If your Controller supports Network Wide Inclusion (NWI) locate the WADWAZ-1 near the proposed installation location. If not skip to Step 6.

5.With your Controller in Inclusion mode, you should see an indication on your Controller that the “device was included” in the network. It should display binary switch / Linear. The LED will stop blinking. Skip to Step 9.

If the LED does not stop blinking, relocate the WADWAZ-1 to within 100 feet (line of sight) of a Z-Wave device or your hub and repeat Step 5. If the LED continues to blink, your Controller does not support NWI and continue with Step 6.

6.Place the WADWAZ-1 within 3 feet of the Controller.

7.With your Controller in Inclusion mode, depress the Program switch for 1 second then release.

8.You should see an indication on your Controller that the “device was included” in the network. It should display binary switch / Linear. The LED will stop blinking.

9.The device will appear in the list of Switches.

NOTE: If you have trouble adding the WADWAZ-1 to a group it may be that the Home ID and Node ID were not cleared from it after testing. You must ﬁrst “RESET UNIT” with your Controller to remove it from the network. Although adding it to a group includes it in the network, removing it from a group does not remove it from the network. If removed from a group, it functions as a repeater (only). “RESET UNIT” removes it completely from the network.

For “Association” with another device:

The door/window sensor supports one association group with up to 5 nodes.

1.Set up the Z-Wave™ Interface Controller into “association” mode, and following its instruction to associate the WADWAZ-1 with another device.

2.Open the door/window sensor case to “wake” the unit. In the Controller, associate the sensor with the other device.

3.Close the door/window sensor case.

For “Exclusion” from (removing from) a network:

1.Set up the Z-Wave™ Interface Controller into “exclusion” mode, and following its instruction to delete the WADWAZ-1 from the Controller.

2.Press the Program switch of WADWAZ-1 for 1 second and release to be excluded.

The LED light will ﬂ ash continuously when the sensor is in the Exclusion condition.

Magnet Gap Distance

Mounting

1.Use the screws or adhesive tape to attach the rear cover to the frame along the opening edge of the door or window.

2.Attach the magnet to the door or window adjacent to the marks on the sensor (see illustration) BE SURE THE MAGNET IS NO FURTHER THAN 3/4” FROM THE SENSOR WHEN THE DOOR OR WINDOW IS CLOSED.

External Contact

To monitor an additional opening, an external normally closed switch contact can be connected to the sensor’s external input terminals.

1.To allow clearance for the external contact wires, break out the thin plastic wall of the sensor case near the terminals.

2.Loosen the two terminal screws, insert the wires from the external contact into the two terminals and tighten the two screws.

Terminal Screws

BASIC OPERATION

•During normal operation with the door or window closed, the detector’s red LED will be off.

•When the magnet moves away from the sensor as the door or window opens, the sensor will send an alarm signal to any associated nodes and the red LED will flash once.

•When the magnet moves back towards the sensor as the door or window closes, the sensor will send a restore signal to any associated nodes and the red LED will flash once.

•The sensor is equipped with a tamper switch. If the sensor is removed from the mounting plate, it will send a tamper alarm signal and the red LED will light constant.

See the table below for the alarm signal types and values.

IMPORTANT !!!

Linear radio controls provide a reliable communications link and ﬁ ll an important need in portable wireless signaling. However, there are some limitations which must be observed.

•For U.S. installations only: The radios are required to comply with FCC Rules and Regulations as Part 15 devices. As such, they have limited transmitter power and therefore limited range.

•A receiver cannot respond to more than one transmitted signal at a time and may be blocked by radio signals that occur on or near their operating frequencies, regardless of code settings.

•Changes or modifications to the device may void FCC compliance.

•Infrequently used radio links should be tested regularly to protect against undetected interference or fault.

•A general knowledge of radio and its vagaries should be gained prior to acting as a wholesale distributor or dealer, and these facts should be communicated to the ultimate users.
