Z-Wave Siren
Firmware Version : 0.0
Quick Start
AThis device is a Z-Wave actor. For Inclusion and Exclusion push the Inclusion/Exclusion Switch behind
the rear cover quickly 3 times.
Please refer to the chapters below for detailed information about all aspects of the products usage.
What is Z-Wave?
This device is equipped with wireless communication complying to the Z-Wave standard. Z-Wave is the
international standard for wireless communication in smart homes and buildings. It is using the
frequency of 868.42 MHz to realize a very stable and secure communication. Each message is reconfirmed
(two-way communication) and every mains powered node can act as a repeater for other nodes (meshed
network) in case the receiver is not in direct wireless range of the transmitter.
Z-Wave differentiates between Controllers and Slaves. Slaves are either sensors (S) transmitting metered or
measured data or actuators (A) capable to execute an action. Controllers are either static mains powered
controllers (C) also referred to as gateways or mobile battery operated remote controls (R). This results in a
number of possible communication patterns within a Z-Wave network that are partly or completely supported
by a specific device.
1. Controllers control actuators
2. Actuators report change of status back to controller
3. Sensors report change of status of measured values to controller

4. Sensors directly control actuators
5. Actuators control other actuators
6. Remote controls send signals to static controllers to trigger scenes or other actions
7. Remote controls control other actuators.
There are two different role a controller can have. There is always one single primary controller that is managing the
network and including/excluding devices. The controller may have other functions - like control buttons - as well. All other
controllers don't manage the network itself but can control other devices. They are called secondary controllers. The
image also shows that its not possible to operate a sensor just from a remote control. Sensors only communicate with
static controllers.
Product description
The Siren SE812 Siren will warn everybody in the building by a loud sound and a flashing light about an
alarm. This product is especially suited to use in combination with other Z-Wave devices such as sensors.
The SE812 Siren gives a loud sound and a flashing warning light, so everybody in the building will know
immediately that an alarm has occurred. You can choose to activate the siren either by burglary alarm or by
a smoke alarm or activate the siren by both alarms. It is even possible to install multiple sirens, so the alarm
can be heard loudly at multiple locations. The SE812 Siren has an adjustable jumper inside, so you can
choose between either a 90dB or a 100 dB volume of the siren. Choose either the included batteries or a
power supply to power your siren. When using batteries, the siren will give a warning when the batteries are
almost empty.
Before Device is installed
Please read carefully the enclosed user manual before installation of the radio-actuator, in order to ensure
an error-free functioning.
ATTENTION: only authorized technicians under consideration of the country-specific installation
guidelines/norms may do works with 230?Volt mains power. Prior to the assembly of the product, the
voltage network has to be switched off and ensured against re-switching.
The product is permitted only for proper use as specified in the user manual. Any kind of guarantee claim
has to be forfeited if changes, modifications or painting are undertaken. The product must be checked for
damages immediately after unpacking. In the case of damages, the product must not be operated in any
case. If a danger-free operation of the equipment cannot be assured, the voltage supply has to be
interrupted immediately and the equipment has to be protected from unintended operation.
Installation Guidelines
1. Undo and remove the fixing screws from the bottom edge of the Indoor Siren and remove the rear cover.
2. Insert four LR14 1.5V size alkaline batteries to the battery compartment, ensuring correct polarity.

3. You can use power adapter instead of batteries. The power adapter is an optional accessory. A cable
track is set inside the unit for you to secure the power adapter. To install the power adapter, connect the
plug of power adapter to the DC jack inside the unit. Route the cable along the cable track.
4. There are two jumpers on the backside to set sound level and tamper switch. With the upper jumper the
sound level can be set to 90db or 100db. With the lower jumper the tamper switch can be enabled or
disabled.

Behavior within the Z-Wave network
IOn factory default the device does not belong to any Z-Wave network. The device needs to join an
existing wireless network to communicate with the devices of this network. This process is called Inclusion.
Devices can also leave a network. This process is called Exclusion. Both processes are initiated by the
primary controller of the Z-Wave network. This controller will be turned into exclusion respective inclusion
mode. Please refer to your primary controllers manual on how to turn your controller into inclusion or
exclusion mode. Only if the primary controller is in inclusion or exclusion mode, this device can join or leave
the network. Leaving the network - i.e. being excluded - sets the device back to factory default.
If the device already belongs to a network, follow the exclusion process before including it in your network.
Otherwise inclusion of this device will fail. If the controller being included was a primary controller, it has to
be reset first.
When the device is first time powered up it is not included in a Z-Wave network and has no Associations.
The Siren will stay "awake" for 10 minutes when power is first applied to allow the configuration.
1. Inclusion: For Inclusion bring your Z-Wave controller in the relevant mode and click the
inclusion/exclusion switch quickly 3 times. The green LED is on and the siren beeps when the switch is
pressed.

2. Exclusion: For Exclusion bring your Z-Wave controller in the relevant mode and click the
inclusion/exclusion switch quickly 3 times. The green LED is on and the siren beeps when the switch is
pressed.
3. Reset: For Resetting click the inclusion/exclusion switch quickly 3 times to bring the device in the reset
mode. Within 1 second, press the switch again for 5 seconds until LED is off. The device now has factory
settings. The orange LED is off and the siren beeps for 5 seconds.
4. Association: For Association bring your Z-Wave controller in the relevant mode and click the
inclusion/exclusion switch quickly 3 times to bring it in the association mode. The device supports one
association group with 5 nodes for Grouping 1.
Operating the device
Self-Protection Mode: Once the device is closed for three seconds and the tamper switch is activated it will
give an alarm for 3 minutes, if it is violent opened or manipulated. When the siren is in the normal mode and
an associated device triggers an alarm the siren and the flash light will be activated.
Wakeup Intervals - how to communicate with the device?
WThis device is battery operated and turned into deep sleep state most of the time to save battery
life time. Communication with the device is limited. In order to communicate with the device, a static
controller Cis needed in the network. This controller will maintain a mailbox for the battery operated devices
and store commands that can not be received during deep sleep state. Without such a controller,
communication may become impossible and/or the battery life time is significantly decreased.
This device will wakeup regularly and announce the wakeup state by sending out a so called Wakeup
Notification. The controller can then empty the mailbox. Therefore, the device needs to be configured with
the desired wakeup interval and the node ID of the controller. If the device was included by a static
controller this controller will usually perform all necessary configurations. The wakeup interval is a tradeoff
between maximal battery life time and the desired responses of the device.
Tripple click on the inclusion/exclusion switch or a detected action by the sensor will wake up the device and
keep it awake.
It is possible to set the node ID to 255 to send wakeup notifications as broadcast. In this mode device takes more time to
go to sleep and drains battery faster, but can notify all it's direct neighbors about a wakeup.
