Description of the blackout blind
he ARF, ARP Z-Wave blackout blind is intended for mounting onto FAKRO roof windows and has
been adapted for cooperation with wireless control devices offered by FAKRO and other manufacturers
offering products with Z-Wave logo. he blackout blind is equipped with a two-way radio communication
module. For communication, the Z-Wave module utilizes radio wave frequency of 868,42 MHz.
he ARF, ARP Z-Wave blackout blind is equipped with two protections:
• at unfolded blind's material position (overload)
• at folded blind's material position (microswitches)
o be able to operate the blind, it is necessary to install it following the picture installation
instructions included in the product package. Subsequently, the blackout blind should be programmed for
one of the remote controls/controllers (e.g. ZWP remote, ZWK or ZWG keyboard) offered by FAKRO or
any controller offered by other manufacturer equipped with the Z-Wave module. Below there is presented
general view of the ARF, ARP Z-Wave blackout blind with description of available buttons and indicators.
1 – control panel
2 – network status (LED 1 )
3 – programming button P
4 – motor working status (LED 2)
5 – manual operating button
6 – limit switch
Available programming and manual operating buttons (arrow up-down) and signalling are placed
on the left side of the cassette lid.
he ZWF communication modules in the ARF Z-Wave blackout blind are placed inside the blind's
cassette and access to them is possible after removing cassette from the sash.

Cooperation of devices from different manufacturers in Z-Wave network
Z- ave allows to integrate devices of different manufacturers which can work in different
groups; lighting, heating, domestic automation, etc. Z- ave devices operate as repeaters in the
network, thus increasing the range of radio communication. The more devices in the network,
the more reliable and more resistant to interference is performance of the devices within the
network.
Adding device to the network operated by the controller of other manufacturer
Note! Make sure that the device (blackout blind) does not belong to any other network.
Start INCLUDE procedure with the controller of existing network and then press
“programming” button on the blackout blind being added to the network.
Note: Information how to initiate and perform INCLUDE and ASSOCIATE function with the use of
controllers of other manufacturers is to be found in the instructions of these devices.
Special function – ALL ON, ALL OFF
It is possible to define whether the blackout blind has to respect “close all” or “open all”
commands.
Note! Instructions how to define respecting functions “close all” and “open all” are to be found in
instructions of the respective devices.
Manual operating
The “manual operating button” allows operating the ARF Z- ave blackout blind directly
after its installation. In order to control the blackout blind manually it is necessary to press
manual operating button. The buttons work sequentially e.g. start, stop, start in another direction,
stop, etc.
1 . Pressing the button for the first time starts the blackout blind to unfold.
2. Second pressing the button stops the blackout blind.
3. Third pressing the button starts the blackout blind in the opposite direction.
NOTE! Before proceeding to programming check whether the device is not already assigned to
other network. It is indicated by network status LED diode. Network status light-emitting LED
diode informs that the device is not part of the network and can be added to any network. If the
device is powered and network status LED diode does not emit light, it is necessary to perform
EXCLUDE procedure.
Adding device to the network (controller) – INCLUDE function.
In order for the device to communicate within the Z- ave network it is essential to
connect it to the network with the use of PRIMARY controller. The device can be added to the
network as long as it does not belong to any other network.
NOTE! Information how to initiate and perform INCLUDE function is to be found in the
instructions of Z P, Z K and Z G controllers offered by FAKRO.
Assigning device to operating buttons – ASSOCIATE function.
In case of some controllers after correct adding the device to the network it is necessary
to assign them to the specific group of operating buttons used for controlling the device. For this
purpose use ASSOCIATE function.
NOTE! Information how to initiate and perform ASSOCIATE function is to be found in the
instructions of Z P, Z K and Z G controllers offered by FAKRO.
