Operating the device

Tamper (TMP) button:
The Door/Window Sensor 2 is equipped with a tamper switch with two buttons.

First TMP button is located inside the device, pressed by the closed cover and is used to detect openning it.

Second TMP button is located at bottom of the device, pressed by the surface on which the device is mounted and is used to detect detaching the device.

For the tamper switch to work one of the buttons must always be pressed!

When one of the buttons is released, the tamper alarm will be send to the controller and associated devices.

Additionally, tamper button allows to control the device directly.

Controlling the Door/Window Sensor 2 with FIBARO Home Center controller:
After adding the Sensor to the FIBARO System, it will be represented by two or three icons in Home Center interface.

First icon informs about the status of magnetic sensor (open/close), second icon displays temperature measured by the built-in sensor. Third icon is assigned to high/low temperature alarm and is visible only if parameter 54 is not equal to 0.

Waking up the Door/Window Sensor 2:
The Door/Window Sensor 2 needs to be woken up to receive information about the new configuration from the controller, like parameters and associations.

To wake up the sensor manually, click one of the TMP buttons (while the other button is pressed).

Resetting the Door/Window Sensor 2:
Reset procedure allows to restore the device back to its factory settings, which means all information about the Z-Wave controller and user configuration will be deleted.

In order to reset the device:

1. Open the cover.
2. Remove the battery.
3. Install the battery while holding both TMP buttons.
4. Visual LED indicator will be flashing slowly for 5 seconds - keep holding the buttons.
5. Release one button when the LED indicator starts flashing quickly.
6. Click released button once to confirm launching of reset procedure.
7. Wait a few seconds until a long blink of the LED indicator. Do not remove the battery.
8. Visual LED indicator will blink 5 times quickly to confirm the reset.

Replacing the battery:
In FIBARO Home Center controller current battery level is displayed in the interface. If a battery icon turns red, it means the battery needs replacement.

Notification report:
The device uses notification Command Class to report different events.

Association

Association (linking devices) - direct control of other devices within the Z-Wave system network e.g. Dimmer, Relay Switch, Roller Shutter or scene (may be controlled only through a Z-Wave controller).

The Door/Window Sensor 2 provides the association of three groups:
1st Association Group – "Lifeline" reports the device status and allows for assigning single device only (main controller by default).
2nd Association Group – "On/Off" is assigned to the device status - contact sensor (sends Basic Set command frames).
3rd Association Group – "Tamper" is assigned to the TMP switch (sends alarm command frames).

The Door/Window Sensor 2 in 2nd and 3rd group allows to control 5 devices (regular or multichannel) per an association group. "Lifeline" group is reserved solely for the controller and hence only 1 node can be assigned.

To add an association (using the Fibaro controller):

1. Go toSettings
2. Go toDevices.
3. Select the appropriate device from the list.
4. Select the Associations tab.
5. Define to which group and which devices to associate.
6. Save the changes.
7. Wake up the device manually or wait for the next automatic wake up.

NOTE
Association allows transfer of control commands between devices without participation of the main controller. Direct range between devices is recommended.

NOTE
"Lifeline" supported Z-Wave Command Classes: notification, Battery, Sensor Multilevel, Device Reset Locally.

Advanced parameters

NOTE
Entering invalid value of parameter will result in response with Application Rejected frame and not setting the value.

NOTE
Parameter 2 values may be combined, e.g. 1+2=3 means that indications for opening/ closing and waking up are enabled.

The Door/Window Sensor 2 allows to customize its operation to user's needs. Settings are available in the FIBARO interface as simple options that may be chosen by selecting the appropriate box. In order to configure the Door/Window Sensor 2 (using the Home Center controller):

1. Go toSettings
2. Go toDevices.
3. Select the appropriate device from the list.
4. Select the Parameters tab.
5. Change values of selected parameters.
6. Save your changes.
7. Press the TMP button to wake up the device or wait until the auto-awaken time has elapsed.

Wake up interval
Available settings: 0 or 3600-64800 (in seconds (1-18h), 3600s (1h) step)
Default setting: 21600 (6h)

The Door/Window Sensor will wake up after each defined time interval and always try to connect with the main controller. After a successful communication attempt, the sensor will update configuration parameters, associations and settings and will go into standby mode. After failed communication attempt (e.g. lack of Z-Wave range) the device will go into standby mode and retry to establish connection with the main controller after the next time interval.

Setting wake up interval to 0 disables sending Wake up notification frame automatically. Wake up may be still performed manually by a clicking one of the TMP buttons (while the other button is pressed).

Longer time interval means less frequent communication and thus a longer battery life.

1. Door/window state
   This parameter allows to set in what state is door/window when the magnet is close to the sensor.

3. Associations in Z-Wave network Security Mode
   This parameter defines how commands are sent in specified association groups: as secure or non-secure. Parameter is active only in Z-Wave network Security Mode. It does not apply to 1st group "Lifeline".

11. 2nd association group triggers
    Parameter defines events which result in sending on/off commands to devices added to the 2nd association group.
    These commands are sent alternately to switch the devices on and off.

12. Association for opening - value sent
    Value sent to devices in 2nd association group when opening is detected
    The value of 0 turns OFF the device, 255 turns it On.
    In case of associating devices allowing smooth control, values 1-99 allow to set an associated device to a specified level.

13. Association for closing - value sent
    Value sent to devices in 2nd association group when closing is detected
    The value of 0 turns OFF the device, 255 turns it On.
    In case of associating devices allowing smooth control, values 1-99 allow to set an associated device to a specified level.

14. Association for opening - time delay
    Time that must elapse from opening to send the command frame to to devices in 2nd association group.

15. Association for closing - time delay
    Time that must elapse from closing to send the command frame to devices in 2nd association group.

30. Tamper - alarm cancellation delay
    Time period after which a tamper alarm will be cancelled.

31. Tamper - reporting alarm cancellation
    Reporting cancellation of tamper alarm to the controller and 3rd association group.

50. Interval of temperature measurements
    This parameter defines how often the temperature will be measured. The shorter the time, the more frequently the temperature will be measured, but the battery life will shorten.

51. Temperature reports threshold
    This parameter defines the change of temperature in comparison with last reported, resulting in temperature report being sent to the main controller.

53. Temperature offset
    The value to be added to the actual temperature, measured by the sensor (temperature compensation).

54. Temperature alarm reports
    Temperature alarms reported to the Z-Wave controller. Thresholds are set in parameters 55 and 56.

55. High temperature alarm threshold
    If temperature is higher than set value, overheat notification will be sent and high temperature alarm will be triggered (if activated).

56. Low temperature alarm threshold
    If temperature is lower than the set value, underheat notification will be sent and low temperature alarm will be triggered (if activated).

NOTE
Value set in parameter 55 must be higher than value set in parameter 56.

Using batteries other than specified may result in explosion. Dispose of properly, observing environmental protection rules.

NOTE
Battery life depends on frequency of usage, number of associations/scenes, Z-Wave routing and network load.

NOTE
Radio frequency of individual device must be same as your Z-Wave controller. Check information on the box or consult your dealer if you are not sure.
