Ring Alarm Motion Detector Z-Wave Manual

Introduction

Ring Alarm Motion Detector is a wireless sensor for the Ring Alarm system which provides users the ability to know when there is movement of a person or similar object within an area. After installing the sensor and setting up the sensor in the Ring app, monitor and receive notifications motion is detected. The Ring Alarm Base Station is required to enable Motion Detector features and functions within the Ring app.
Notes:
1. This product can be operated in any Z-Wave™ network with other Z-Wave certified devices from other manufacturers. All mains operated nodes within the network will act as repeaters regardless of vendor to increase reliability of the network.
2. SmartStart enabled products can be added into a Z-Wave network by scanning the Z-Wave QR Code present on the product with a controller providing SmartStart inclusion. No further action is required and the SmartStart product will be added automatically within 10 minutes of being switched on in the network vicinity.

Ring Alarm Motion Detector – Inclusion

Adding Ring Alarm Motion Detector to a Z-Wave Network
Ring Alarm Motion Detector can be added via SmartStart or Classic inclusion mode.
Note
When prompted for the QR Code or PIN, you may find them on the device, on the box, or on a card inside the box. Keep the device nearby. You'll be prompted to pull the battery tab to power on the device and enter setup mode.

SmartStart Inclusion Steps:

1. Initiate the add flow for Security Devices in the Ring mobile application – Follow the guided add flow instructions provided in the Ring mobile application.
2. When prompted by the mobile application, scan the QR code found on the package of the Motion Detector. The QR code can also be found on the device itself.
3. Pull the pull-tab or insert batteries, and the device will go into SmartStart inclusion mode. While in this mode, Motion Detector can be added to a Z-Wave controller that supports SmartStart. When in SmartStart inclusion mode, SmartStart can be restarted by tapping the button on the front of the device.

Classic Inclusion Steps:

Classic Inclusion should be used if the controller does not support SmartStart.
1. Initiate add flow for Security Devices in the Ring mobile application – Follow the guided add flow instructions provided in the Ring mobile application.
2. Select add manually and enter the 5-digit DSK PIN found on the package of the Ring Alarm Motion Detector or the 5-digit DSK PIN found under the QR code on the device.
3. After powering on the device, press and hold the button on the front of the device for ~3 seconds. Release the button and the device will enter Classic inclusion mode which implements both classic inclusion with a Node Information Frame, and Network Wide Inclusion. During Classic Inclusion mode, the green LED will blink three times followed by a brief pause, repeatedly. When Classic inclusion times-out, the device will blink alternating red and green a few times.
