1. Description

The ZWP15 (remote control) enables remote control of electronic accessories compatible with the

“Z-Wave” system, e.g. ZWS12 or ZWS30 motors for operating FAKRO roof windows. The ZWP15 controller

can operate up to 15 devices separately. The single button in the upper section (No. 3 – Figures 1) allows

selecting one of the five channels (No. 2 – Figures 1) with which devices can be associated. The fifth channel is

signalized by all 4 LEDs.

The ZWP15 controller is equipped with a two-way “Z-Wave” radio communication radio module.

For communication, the Z-Wave module exploits radio wave frequency of 868,42 MHz. In Figure 1, there is

presented a general view of the ZWP remote control with description of available buttons and signaling.

2. Installation of ZWP15 controller

The holder of ZWP15 controller should be attached to the wall or other permanent building element by means

of two screws driven into cylindrical plugs inserted into openings drilled in the wall.

1. Screw the bottom section of the holder to the wall using the included screws which are driven into plugs

2. Mount the upper part of the holder.

3. Place ZWP15 controller on the holder.

3. Controller programming

In order to operate FAKRO electronic accessories, featuring the Z-Wave system, by means of the

ZWP15 controllers, it is necessary to:

1. Add the device to the “Z-Wave” networ (INCLUDE function) – see section 3.1

and

2. Associate the device with a selected pair of buttons on the controller with which user wishes to operate

the device (ASSOCIATE function) – see section 3.2.

In one “Z-Wave” networ , there can be included a maximum of 232 devices, i.e. controllers, electronic

accessories for FAKRO roof windows as well as other electronic devices.

Note !!! Each device physically deleted from the networ (e.g. damaged) shall be deleted from the controller's

memory (PRIMARY, SECONDARY), that is, first deleted from a pair of buttons (section 3.4) and then deleted

from the networ (3.5). Appropriate implementation of procedures aims to provide optimal communication

between devices. Disconnecting the device without deleting it from the controller's memory will result in longer

time of reaction of devices on commands and faster running out of batteries. In case of necessity of deleting

damaged device, which deleting from the controller's memory is not possible, it is recommended to re-

configurate the whole networ (all devices). Configuration of the new networ begins with restoring the

controller to factory settings (DEFAULT function), and then EXCLUDE function is used and next we go

further to the section 3 „Controller programming”.

Note !!! When moving the device within the networ , it is recommended to delete it from the controller's

memory (first deleting from a pair of buttons, section 3.4) an then deleting it from the networ (section 3.5) and

re-adding after installation in new wor place.

3.1. Adding device to network (INCLUDE function)

Adding a device to the “Z-Wave” networ is possible only via “PRIMARY” controller (every

single brand new controller is set as a primary controller by default). In each networ , there is always only one

primary controller and any other added to it is identified as “SECONDARY”. The procedure of device adding

to the networ is presented in Figure 2.

*) Programming error can be caused by:

•no button being pressed within 10 seconds from the controller signaling its readiness for adding a new

device to the networ ;

•long distance between the controller and device being added;

•the device already belonging to other networ . It is necessary to use EXCLUDE function and repeat the

procedure of device adding to the networ .

the device has been successfully

added to the networ (middle

LEDs on for app. 2-3sec.)

1. Press “In/Ex” button once 2. The controller is signalizing its

readiness for adding a new device

to the networ (external LEDs on

for 10 sec.)

3. Press “P” button on the device

and hold it for 0.5 sec. (see

Installation Manual).

Note !!! In the new version of the controller, stopping of each procedure is possible by pressing of „IN/EX” buttons. In

the older version, it is necessary to wait 10 sec. until the moment of signalling the error by the controller or resetting it

by removing batteries.

3.2. Associating device wit a pair of buttons on t e controller (ASSOCIATE function)

Associating the device with a pair of buttons on the controller, which has been already included in

the Z-Wave networ according to section 3.1, ma es it possible to operate the device. This procedure can be

carried out on the primary and secondary controllers. The procedure of associating the device with buttons is

presented in Figure 3.

*) Programming error can be caused by:

•no button being pressed within 10 seconds from the controller signaling its readiness for associating a

new device with the networ ;

•long distance between the controller and device being added;

•device already belongs to another networ or it has not been associated with any networ . It is necessary

to perform EXCLUDE function on the device and repeat INCLUDE and ASSOCIATE functions.

buttons which will operate the

device (e.g. 2).

4. Press “P” button on the device and

hold it for 0.5 sec. (see Device

Programming Manual).

Note!!! In the new version of the controller, stopping of any procedure is possible by pressing of „IN/EX” buttons. In

older version, it is necessary to wait 10 sec. until the moment of signalling the error by the controller or resetting it by

removing the batteries.

3.3. Associating anot er controller wit t e network (LEARN MODE)

Associating further controllers with the networ ma es them being categorized as “SECONDARY”.

Associating a controller with the Z-Wave networ consists in sending data to it from the PRIMARY controller. The

procedure of controller associating is presented in Figure 4. In order to assure the best possible communication within the

networ and after each its modification (including or removing a device):

•associating another controller with the networ should be performed after associating all devices with the first

controller (“PRIMARY”),

•or performing LEARN MODE again on the “SECONDARY” controller already associated with the networ .

*) Programming error can be caused by:

•failure to enter LEARN MODE on the controller being associated with the networ within 10 seconds

from primary controller signaling its readiness for adding a new device to the networ ;

•long distance between the primary controller and controller being added;

•controller already belonging to another networ . It is necessary to perform DEFAULT procedure with it

and repeat associating with the networ .

Note !!! In order to operate devices from the „Secondary” controller it is necessary to perform ASSOCIATE function (loo

section 3.2).

Note!!! In the new version of the controller, stopping of any procedure is possible by pressing of „IN/EX” buttons. In older

version, it is necessary to wait 10 sec. until the moment of signalling the error by the controller or resetting it by removing the

batteries.

3.4. Deleting device from a pair of controller buttons on t e controller (DELETE function)

This function deletes from controller's memory the device associated with a pair of buttons on a

selected channel. However, it does not remove the device form the “Z-Wave” networ . This function is

accessible from PRIMARY and SECONDARY controllers. The procedure of device deleting form a pair of

controller buttons is presented in Figure 5.

*) Programming error can be caused by:

•failure to press programming button within 10 seconds from controller signaling its readiness for

deleting the device from selected pair of buttons;

•long distance between the controller and device.

- “In/Ex”(1) button twice and then

- the button from this pair of buttons

which operates the device to be

removed (e.g. 2).

6*. Programming error –

LEDs flashing for app. 2-3

sec.).

1. Select remote control channel

through which the device to be

removed is operated.

5. The controller is signalizing

successful device deleting (three

LEDs on for app. 2-3 sec.).

3. The controller is signalising

readiness for device deleting (three

LEDs on for 10 sec.).

Note!!! In the new version of the controller, stopping of any procedure is possible by pressing of „IN/EX” buttons. In

older version, it is necessary to wait 10 sec. until the moment of signalling the error by the controller or resetting it by

removing the batteries.

3.5. Excluding device from t e network (EXCLUDE function)

Excluding the device from the “Z-Wave” networ is possible only with the use of PRIMARY

controller (e.g. ZWP remote control). In each networ there is always only one primary controller and every

other is categorized as SECONDARY. The procedure of device excluding from the networ is presented in

Figure 6.

*) Programming error may be caused by:

•failure to press the programming button within 10 seconds from controller signaling its readiness for

excluding the device from the networ ;

•long distance between the controller and device being excluded.
