Introduction
NETVOX Z801WLS is a water or wet Z801WLS. It acts as an end device in the ZigBee
Home Automation Profile network. It allows five Z801WLS types to be attached for
customizing feature. When signal is detected the device sends a warning message to its
enrolled or bound CIE (a security central) device in the network to notify the user. To know
more about CIE device please consult your supplier.
What is ZigBee?
ZigBee is a short range wireless transmission technology which defined for a minimum
complexity, low power consumption, low data rate, cost effective wireless solution. ZigBee
lies in between wireless markup technology and Bluetooth. ZigBee is based on
IEEE802.15.4 standard, the mutual co-ordination between thousands of Z801WLSs to
exchange data. Sensor to Z801WLS or node-to-node communication is achieved through
relays of control data between devices with only a fraction of energy use which denoted
for highly transmission efficiency.
Note: Wireless communication, in some real use cases, can be limited by the signal
blockage. Please consult your service provider or place of purchase.

Setting up the Z801WLS and network
Here are the summarized steps
(1) Powering the device and network association
(2) Enroll Z801WLS to a CIE (security central)
(3) It is ready to be used.
Step 1: Power on and network association
To allow Z801WLS to function, it must first join to a ZigBee network either through a
coordinator or a router device. When it is given power (refer to Power on the device and
cabling) it will automatically start searching for an existed network. So before you give
power to Z801WLS make sure it is within the wireless coverage distance (~70 meters or
less) and make sure first you have the permit-join feature enabled either on a
coordinator or a router device from the network so that Z801WLS can detect and
automatically join to the network through it;
*On how to enable permit-join please refer to the router or coordinator device user manual
Operation:
Step 1: First make sure you have opened up permit-join function (valid for 60 seconds) on
a coordinator or a router in the network.
Step 2: Now power on the Z801WLS device to let it search automatically for this network.
Step 3: if join successful the network indicator will flash 5 times, otherwise the indicator
stays unchanged. Soon within 7 seconds the device will enter sleep mode to save power.
To wake up the device for another join attempt, please press any key to repeat the join
process. Make sure that the permit-join of a router or coordinator is enabled if 60 seconds
has expired.
Notes:
a. By default the network does not allow any devices to join, this is done this way to
prevent any potential unauthorized device join attempt. Make sure Z801WLS must be
within the coverage area. You must enable permit join feature on a router or a
coordinator already in the network so that Z801WLS is permitted to join when the
channel is automatically searched.
b. On how to enable permit-join feature please refer to the coordinator or the router user
manual.

Power on the device and cabling
Z801WLS comes in battery powered supply.
For battery power Z801WLS, you will use 2 AAA size batteries. Open up the battery
compartment and insert the battery.
Now connect the Z801WLS cable into the signal input ports; one Z801WLS to one signal
port. Also connect the Z801WLS’s negative cable to the GND. For example, Z801WLS
can be a water Z801WLS.
Step 2: Automatic zone enrollment
Soon after the network join, the next step is to enroll itself into security system to validate
zone alarm feature to report alarm events. The enrollment will automatically take place
within 10 seconds right after the network join. As Z801WLS has 5 Z801WLSs, it will enroll
all these 5 Z801WLS zones into the CIE security.
Observation: If enrollment is successful the status indicator will flash 6 times. If CIE
device registration table is saturated or failed for other reasons it gives 2 flashes.
Please apply manual enrollment when automatic enrolment failed.
Manual enrollment
Short press binding key, the status indicator will flash once. The enrollment process will
start. The status indicator flashes 6 times if successful otherwise flashes 2 times if
unsuccessful.
Assigning Z801WLS to a preferred CIE system
Z801WLS can be manually enrolled to a preferred CIE device via external application
software such as Netvox’s ZiG-BUTLER PC based software or any other 3rd party device.
For ZiG-BUTLER user, please refer to ZiG-BUTLER section in this manual.
If registration is successful, it flashes 6 times.
If registration table is full and unable to enroll, it flashes 4 times.
If CIE is not existed and failed to enroll, it flashes 2 times.

How to use
When the device has successfully joined to the network and has enrolled to a CIE device,
the device is ready to be used.
When Z801WLS detects signal from Z801WLS, it will trigger an event reporting message
to the CIE device for a corresponding alarm to notify the user. If you have ZiG-BUTLER
PC software or siren on the ZigBee network, a notification message will be displayed or an
audible sound will be heard.
Restore to factory setting
Z801WLS is capable of storing and saving includes network routing information. If you
wish to remove Z801WLS from the network to join to a new network, you would need to
clear its memory by reset the device to restore to the factory setting.
Operation:
1. To reset the device, first remove the power then hold on to the binding key.
2. While doing so, power up the device to give power then release the key.
3. If restore to factory setting is successful, the status indicator light will flash quickly.
Now the device has restored to the factory setting.
Now if you wish to join Z801WLS to a new network please power cycle the device again to
put the device into search for a network mode.
Overcoming a sleeping device
The device is battery powered and is designed to enter sleep mode when not transmitting.
Sometimes you would need to collect attribute data or during installation and during the
deployment process, you need to force the device to enter active mode.
Operation:
Hold press the binding key for 3 seconds until you see the status indicator flashes once
and network indicator flashes 5 times then release the key. The device should
automatically send its own short address and IEEE address.
Battery disposal
This device uses AAA size battery. When the battery is bellowing 2.4V DC, the device will
not work and the status indicator will steadily flash to notify the user to replace it.
Warning: Do not cast battery into the fire. The battery may be explosive and may cause
injuries.

Installation
These 5 connection ports accept short and open circuit as signal. Whether a short or an
open circuit is to trigger the alarm or not, it really depends on your need.
You may program the device by initially open or close connection at the time of device
joining to the ZigBee network.
To program Z801WLS to trigger the alarm by an open circuit:
1. First short the S# port to GND. (select one of the 5 S ports)
2. Restored the device to factory default setting.
3. Then power cycle the device after the device has restored to factory default setting.
The device regards short circuit is a normal status and therefore will not trigger the
alarm.
To program Z801WLS to trigger the alarm by a close circuit:
1. First leave the S# port open. (select one of the 5 S ports)
2. Restored the device to factory default setting.
3. Then power cycle the device after the device has restored to factory default setting.
The device regards open circuit is a normal status and therefore will not trigger the
alarm.
