Here is a full list of advanced settings (parameters) for the ZSE19 Multisiren:
Siren Alarm Duration
Parameter 1: Choose how long you want the siren alarm to last for once it’s triggered. The number entered as value corresponds to the number of seconds.
Values: 10-600; 180 (seconds) – default value.
Size: 2 byte dec.
Temperature and Humidity Reporting Interval
Parameter 2: Choose how often you want the Multisiren to report temperature and humidity readings to the hub. The number entered as value corresponds to the number of minutes. Frequent reports will decrease battery life.
Values: 1 – 1440; 30 (minutes) – default value.
Size: 2 byte dec.
Custom Sound Selection for Audio Speaker*
Parameter 3: Enable one of the custom sounds in the audio file library. The number entered as value corresponds to the file number in the library (see below for more details).
Values: 0 – 99; 0 – pause (default value).
Size: 1 byte dec.
*Audio Speaker is an optional feature enabled by the brand new Sound Switch command class. This feature is separate from the siren alarm (the sound or volume of the siren can’t be adjusted) and once fully enabled, it allows you to play different sounds from the library based on different Z-Wave triggers and events. There’s a good chance your gateway controller (hub) doesn’t support this command class yet and you won’t be able to use the Audio Speaker for now. But we’ve included it in
the documentation so you know it’s there once we finalize full integration with the major systems.
How to manage the audio file library (for Audio Speaker only):
1. Plug the Multisiren to your computer/laptop using the mini USB port and included USB cable.
2. Follow the prompts on the screen to run the manager.
3. Use the file navigation menu on the left to locate your file source.
4. Select the files you want to upload to the Multisiren. Accepted formats:
- .wav files in Mono only (you need to convert any Mp3’s)
- Sample rate: 8KHz – 32KHz
- Max length per file: 30 seconds (total max length of all files: 85 sec.)
5. Click on the upload icon in the bottom left corner on the window.
6. Your library is now updated. You can use the up/down arrow icons to change the file order in the library. Note that the no. 2 file in the library is reserved for tamper switch notification playback.
7. Close the Library Manager software, remove the USB cable, and power cycle your Multisiren by taking one of the batteries out and reinserting it.
