INSTALLATION

POWER ON THE SENSOR: Choose your inclusion method first!

If you are including the sensor via SmartStart or Z-Wave Long Range, it is very important not to power on the sensor until you have completed the SmartStart process in your hub UI (see instructions below). If you are including manually to the classic mesh network, you will need to power on the sensor before including it to your hub.

Use the triangle tool to gently open the sensor’s cover and access the battery. Pull the tab from under the battery to activate the sensor. Don’t close the cover just yet. The LED indicator will start blinking for around 10 seconds once the sensor is powered.

The LED indicator doesn’t blink or light up at all?

  • Make sure the battery is inserted correctly per the positive / negative pole marks.

  • Try a fresh lithium nonrechargeable battery.

  • Click the Z-Wave button 3 times as quickly as possible to force inclusion/exclusion mode in case you missed when it first flashed.

Z-WAVE CONTROL

There are 2 methods to add the dimmer to your hub:

1. SmartStart:

  • DO NOT POWER ON THE DEVICE YET.

  • Use the hub UI / app to scan the SmartStart code on the device. The SmartStart QR code / security PIN is on the inside of the sensor’s battery cover.

  • Once completed, power the device for SmartStart inclusion, it will be added automatically (see above for instructions to power the sensor).

  • Do NOT press the Z-Wave® button. (Except for SmartThings, you may need to tap the Z-Wave® button 3 times). See below for QR codes to hub-specific instructions.

2. Manual Inclusion:

  • Initiate inclusion (pairing) in the app or hub UI.

  • Make sure the device is powered and finalize the inclusion at the dimmer: tap the Z-Wave® button 3 times quickly. 

  • The LED indicator will blink green to signal communication and turn green for 2 seconds if inclusion is successful or turn red for 2 seconds if the pairing attempt fails.

 

It’s best to add your sensor from the area where it will be installed so the hub can find the best route to reach it right away.

TROUBLESHOOTING

The sensor won’t add to your system? Try this:

  1. Initiate EXCLUSION in your hub and click the Z-Wave button 3 times as quickly as possible.

  2. Click the Z-Wave button quicker when adding it.

  3. Bring the sensor closer to your hub, it may be out of range.

  4. Double-check if the device is powered. 5. Get troubleshooting tips specific to your hub at www.support.getzooz.com

EXCLUSION

  1. Bring the sensor within direct range of your Z-Wave hub.

  2. Put the Z-Wave hub into exclusion mode (see below for hub instructions).

  3. Click the Z-Wave button 3 times as quickly as possible.

  4. Your hub will confirm exclusion and the sensor will disappear from your controller's device list

FACTORY RESET

When your network’s primary controller is missing or otherwise inoperable, you may need to reset the device to factory settings manually. In order to complete the process:

  1. Make sure the sensor is powered

  2. Click the Z-Wave button twice and hold it the third time for 10 seconds.

  3. The LED indicator will blink continuously.

  4. Immediately after, click the ZWave button twice more to finalize the reset.

  5. The LED indicator will flash 3 times to confirm a successful reset.

NOTE: All previously recorded activity and custom settings will be erased from the device’s memory.

WAKE-UP MODE

The sensor’s wake-up interval is set to 12 hours by default to save battery life. Use the Wake Up Command Class to adjust the interval. Click the Z-Wave button 4 times quickly to wake the sensor up manually. The LED indicator will flash once to confirm the device is awake. During wake-up, the sensor turns the Z-Wave radio on for one minute to receive communication from the hub. Long wake-up interval will not affect how oen the sensor reports to your hub so we recommend leaving the default setting to conserve battery.

BATTERY POWER TIP

This sensor runs on a coin battery with smaller capacity than the lithium CR batteries used in other sensors so you may see the battery readings fluctuate from low to higher readings when the sensor is awake during programming and testing. The battery will usually go back to its stable reading within a few hours so always allow a day or two aer you see the first lower reading before checking on the actual battery life left for your device.

ASSOCIATION

The XS Sensor supports Group 1 for Lifeline communication and Groups 2-5 with up to 5 devices per group for basic on/off control. Use Group 2 for high temperature alerts; Group 3 for low temperature alerts; Group 4 for high humidity alerts; and Group 5 for low humidity alerts. See parameters 5-8 to set the thresholds. Please note that not all Z-Wave systems give users access to direct association settings so if you’re note sure where to find it, please get in touch with our support and we’ll be happy to help.

ADVANCED SETTINGS

Click the Z-Wave button 4 times quickly to wake the sensor up after updating any of the settings.

INDOOR MOUNTING

  1. We recommend including your sensor to the Z-Wave network from the location you want to install it before you actually mount it.

  2. Place the sensor on a dry and clean surface in the space you’d like to monitor temperature and humidity. Use the supplied adhesive tape to fix the sensor to the surface, with the battery slot and sensor perforation pointing down.

  3. Test the sensor overnight to make sure it’s reporting both temperature and humidity according to the settings. It may take up to 48 hours to adjust to the environment so give it a couple of days before evaluating the reports.

OUTDOOR MOUNTING

  1. Install the product outdoors under eve with the snap-on mounting bracket (included) for best results.

  2. Add the sensor to Z-Wave from the area where it will be installed before mounting it.

  3. Use the supplied screws to fix the mounting bracket to a dry clean surface around the spot you’d like to monitor.

  4. Insert the sensor into the bracket, it should snap right on. Remember to position the device so that the sensor perforation is pointing down.
