FIBARO Heat Controller is a remotely controlled thermostatic head to control temperature in your room. It measures the temperature and automatically adjust the heat level.
It can be mounted without tools on three types of thermostatic radiator valves.
You can create schedules via app to easily manage temperature throughout the week.
Main features of FIBARO Heat Controller:
FIBARO Heat Controller is a fully compatible Z-Wave Plus device.
NOTE
This device may be used with all devices certified with Z-Wave Plus certificate and should be compatible with such devices produced by other manufacturers.
NOTE
Z-Wave Controller must support Z-Wave Security Mode in order to fully utilize the product.
NOTE
First charging may take up to 3 hours.
If you use one of the adapters, double check that it is mounted properly. It should click when putting on the valve, hold tight after installing and not rotate!
If the device is installed in vertical position, set bit 5 in parameter 2.
Do not cover or veil the thermostatic head.
If you use one of the adapters, double check that it is mounted properly. It click when putting on the valve, hold tight after installing and not rotate!
If the device is installed in vertical position, set bit 5 in parameter 2.
Do not cover or veil the thermostatic head.
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:
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:
NOTE
Removing the device from the Z-Wave network restores all the default parameters of the device.
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:
With colour depending on set temperature:
NOTE
If device is currently during normal schedule, setting temperature manually will set Override Schedule (see "Override Schedule")
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:
To remove all paired heads from the sensor's memory:
NOTE
FGBRS-001 is the only compatible temperature sensor.
This product is not a toy. keep away from children and animals!
Before dismounting, the device must be put in Standby Mode to ensure safe removal. See chapter „Standby Mode" for more information.
To dismount the device:
Menu allows to perform important configuration and maintenance actions. In order to use the menu:
After enabling the local protection changing temperature directly on the device (by turning it) will not be possible.
Enabling local protection is recommended if you want to prevent accidental temperature change, e.g. by children.
When attempting to change temperature if local protection is enabled:
To change the temperature use the app or disable the local protection.
To enable/disable local protection using the menu: NOTE
NOTE
Local protection can also be enabled/ disabled remotely through Z-Wave controller.
Calibrating the device to your radiator valve is required for proper controlling the temperature.
Calibration is performed:
To perform calibration using the menu:
NOTE
Calibration cannot be performed while the device is being charged.
In Standby Mode the device is in deep sleep state allowing safe dismounting, transporting and low as possible battery consumption.
The device is shipped in Standby Mode. It should be fully charged before first use.
Entering the device in Standby Mode will not factory reset the device nor will result in loosing any data, but calibration and sensor pairing (after long Standby) is lost.
We recommend unpairing temperature sensor before putting the device into Standby Mode.
To enter Standby Mode:
To exit Standby Mode click the button once, the device will enter first installation procedure.
Reset procedure allows to restore the device back to its factory settings, which means all information about the network and user configuration will be deleted.
To perform factory reset:
NOTE
Resetting the device is not the recommended way of removing the device from the Z-Wave network. use the reset procedure only if the primary controller is missing or inoperable.
The device has a built in Z-Wave network main controller's range tester.
To perform range test:
The device is equipped with a rechargeable lithium-polymer battery pack that can be charged via micro-uSB port using standard 5v charger (not included).
When battery is low the LED ring will start to blink red. The device will also report low battery status of itself and dedicated temperature sensor (if paired) to the controller.
The device does not operate the valve during the charging and maintains the last valve position.
If the battery is discharged the device will open valve completely to allow easy dismounting.
To charge the battery:
Make sure you are using certified charger Class II, marked which complies with parameters specified in the manual.
Do not leave the de vice unattended while charging.
Set the device to OFF (white) before charging or dismount the thermostatic head if not possible. i NOTE Do not use cables longer than 3 meters for charging the device.
Make sure the device won't discharge during the heating season or it may cause high temperatures!
A charging error is signalled by a flashing magenta colour.
The device allows to create multiple heating schedules to manage temperature in the room throughout the week. Schedules are created via controller interface or app.
To create normal schedules user must specify:
NOTE
Schedule CC Set command payload must not be greater than 22 bytes limit or it would be rejected.
Override Schedule is a special type schedule with highest priority; thus it overrides other schedules.
The Override Schedule starts right after setting and lasts for specified time, then it is removed and current schedule or normal operation is restored.
To create Override Schedule user must specify:
Override Mode can be enabled in two ways:
To exit Override Mode grab knob with your hand for 5 seconds.
