ZWAVE RANGE TEST
#8: Z-Wave range test
Z-Wave range tester signalling modes:
Visual indicator pulsing green - the Flood Sensor attempts to es-
tablish a direct communication with the main controller. If a direct
communication attempt fails, the device will try to establish a routed
communication, through other modules, which will be signalled by
visual indicator pulsing yellow.
Visual indicator glowing green - the Flood Sensor communicates
with the main controller directly.
Visual indicator pulsing yellow - the Flood Sensor tries to estab-
lish a routed communication with the main controller through other
modules (repeaters).
Visual indicator glowing yellow - the Flood Sensor communicates
with the main controller through the other modules. After 2 seconds
the device will retry to establish a direct communication with the
main controller, which will be signalled with visual indicator pulsing
green.
Visual indicator pulsing violet - the Flood Sensor does communi-
cate at the maximum distance of the Z-Wave network. If connection
proves successful it will be conrmed with a yellow glow. It’s not rec-
ommended to use the device at the range limit.
Visual indicator glowing red - the Flood Sensor is not able to con-
nect to the main controller directly or through another Z-Wave net-
work device (repeater).
CAUTION
To make Z-Wave range
test possible, the de-
vice must be added
to the Z-Wave control-
ler. Testing may stress
the network, so it is
recommended to per-
form the test only in
special cases.
!
NOTE
Communication mode
of the Flood Sensor
may switch between
direct and one using
routing, especially if
the device is on the
limit of the direct
range.
i
The Flood Sensor has a built in Z-Wave network main controller’s
range tester.
Follow the below instructions to test the main controller’s range:
1. Press and hold the TMP button until the visual indicator glows
violet.
2. Release the TMP button.
3. Click the TMP button once to conrm selection.
4. Visual indicator will indicate the Z-Wave network’s range (range
signalling modes described below).
5. To exit Z-Wave range test, press the TMP button briey.
