The POPP Mold Detector can be mounted in two ways.
1. use the enclosed adhesive tape. Clean the substrate carefully from grease and dirt to achieve optimum strength of the adhesive areas.
2. use the enclosed screws and dowels to fix it to the wall or other surface.
Inclusion/Exclusion
On factory default the device does not belong to any Z-Wave network. The device needs to be added to an existing wireless network to communicate
with the devices of this network. This process is called Inclusion.
Devices can also be removed from a network. This process is called Exclusion. Both processes are initiated by the primary controller of the Z-Wave
network. This controller is turned into exclusion respective inclusion mode. Inclusion and Exclusion is then performed doing a special manual action right
on the device.
Inclusion
Tripple clicking the tamper button includes (adds) the device.
Exclusion
Tripple clicking the tamper button excludes (removes) the device.
Product Usage
Open the POPP Mold Detector
To open the POPP Mold Detector, press the lock with your finger and pull the housing cover upwards.
Tamper button
The tamper button is located on the side of the POPP Mold Detector. This button is also used for inclusion and exclusion.
Functionality
Once the device is powered up it will start monitoring the air parameters and warn of mold using the local red and green LED. All air parameters are
measured every 4 minutes. Pushing the button will force an immediate measurement and the LEDs will indicate the danger of mold
green: no danger of mold in the room
red: danger of mold, on the windows to lower the humidity
The device contains three sensors with the following accuracy measures:
Humidity: +/- 3 % on relative humidity, +/-1 % hysteresis
Temperature: 0 ... 65 °C +/- 1 Kelvin
Dew Point: 0 ... 65 °C +/- 1 Kelvin (calculated from other sensor values)
Besides the measured values the device will issue Z-Wave notifications on moisture (0x10).
Node Information Frame
The Node Information Frame (NIF) is the business card of a Z-Wave device. It contains information about the device type and the technical capabilities.
The inclusion and exclusion of the device is confirmed by sending out a Node Information Frame. Beside this it may be needed for certain network
operations to send out a Node Information Frame. To issue a NIF execute the following action: Tripple Click the tamper button
Communication to a Sleeping device (Wakeup)
This device is battery operated and turned into deep sleep state most of the time to save battery life time. Communication with the device is limited. In order
to communicate with the device, a static controller C is needed in the network. This controller will maintain a mailbox for the battery operated devices and
