NOTE: This unit must be “included in the Network” only where it will be permanently installed. The proper operation of this node in the
mesh network is dependent on it knowing its location with respect to other nodes.You cannot “test bench” configure this module, then install.
WIRELESS SIREN / STROBE
The GoControl family of Z-Wave™ certified wireless Security devices (siren/
strobe, motion sensor, and door/window sensor) bring a new level of intelligent
wireless capability to commercial and residential environments.
The Z-Wave wireless protocol is an international wireless standard for remote
home automation, security and other applications. Embedded in each device,
the Z-Wave smart chip enables two-way RF communication among hundreds
of Z-Wave enabled devices, allowing products and services from multiple
manufacturers to work seamlessly.
GoControl Z-Wave products are easy to install, and create an integrated
wireless network with nearly limitless expansion and interoperability with
security and health monitoring systems, energy management, home
entertainment, appliances, and more.
The siren/strobe will sound a loud siren and flash a bright strobe when activated
by the Z-Wave™ Controller.
For indoor use only. Retain instructions for future use.
INSTALLATION
1. Remove the mounting bracket by pressing on the locking tab and sliding the bracket
downward from the siren/strobe.
2. Use a Phillips screwdriver to remove the two battery compartment cover screws and
lift off the battery compartment cover.
3. Remove the battery holder. OBSERVINGPOLARITY, install 4 Type “AA” Alkaline
batteries into the battery holder.
4. Fit the battery holder into the unit and secure the battery compartment cover with
the two screws.
For “Inclusion” to (adding to) a network:
Refer to your Controller operating instructions to add the siren/strobe under the
command of the Wireless Controller.
1. Prepare the Controller to include a unit to the network by adding it to a group (method
of adding a node to the network). Refer to the Controller instructions.
2. If your Controller supports Network Wide Inclusion (NWI) locate the siren/strobe near
the proposed installation location. If not, skip to Step 5.
3. With your Controller in Inclusion mode, press the siren/strobe Program/Tamper
switch for 1 second and release. The LED will blink.
4. You should see an indication on your Controller that the “device was included” in the
network. The LED will stop blinking. Skip to Step 8.
If the LED does not stop blinking, relocate the siren/strobe to within 100 feet (line of
sight) of a Z-Wave device or your hub and repeat Step 3. If the LED continues to blink,
your Controller does not support NWI, continue with Step 5.
5. Place the siren/strobe within 3 feet of the Controller.
6. With your Controller in Inclusion mode, depress the siren/strobe Program/Tamper
switch for 1 second then release. The LED will blink.
7. You should see an indication on your Controller that the “device was included” in the
network. The LED will stop blinking.
8. The device will appear in the list of Switches. It should display “binary switch”.
✓NOTE: If you have trouble adding the siren/strobe to a group it may be that the Home
ID and Node ID were not cleared from it after testing. You must first “RESET UNIT”
with your Controller to remove it from the network. Although adding it to a group
includes it in the network, removing it from a group does not remove it from the
network. “RESET UNIT” removes it completely from the network.
For “Exclusion” from (removing from) a network:
1. Set up the Z-Wave™ Interface Controller into “exclusion” mode, and following its
instruction to delete the siren/strobe from the controller.
2. Press the siren/strobe Program/Tamper switch for 1 second and release to be
excluded. The LED light will flash continuously when the sensor is in the Exclusion
condition.
Mounting
1. Using the two mounting screws or adhesive tape, affix the mounting bracket at the
chosen location. The locking tab points down.
2. Slide the siren/strobe onto the mounting bracket until the locking tab snaps into place.

BASIC OPERATION
When triggered, the siren/strobe will trigger for 30 seconds (default setting).
During that time the siren will emit a very loud pulsating audible alarm at
105 db. The integrated strobe light will also flash during the 30 seconds.
✘CAUTION: This is an extremely loud siren, do not place it near your ear.
LED Indication
The LED on the siren/strobe will not be on during normal operation.
Remote Control
The siren/strobe will respond to BASIC and BINARY commands that are part
of the Z-Wave system. Refer to your Controller’s instructions as to whether your
Controller can transmit those commands.
CONFIGURATION
The siren/strobe supports the Configuration command. The siren/strobe can
be configured to operate slightly differently than how it works when you first
install it. Using the Configuration command you can configure the following:
Parameter 0: Siren / Strobe Mode
By default, the siren and strobe will activate when turned on. To activate the
Siren only, set parameter 0 to 1. For strobe only set to 2.
• Parameter No: 0
• Length: 1 Byte
• Valid Values = 0 (default) or 1 or 2. Default is 0.
Parameter 1: Auto Stop Time
By default the auto stop time is 30 seconds. Setting parameter 1 to 1 will
increase the time to 60 seconds. Changing it to 2 will increase the stop time
to 120 seconds. Setting the stop time to 3 will turn off the auto stop and will
require a command from the Controller to turn the siren/strobe off.
• Parameter No: 1
• Length: 1 Byte
• Valid Values = 0 or 1 or 2 or 3. Default is 0.
Default Setting
Each configuration Parameter can be set to its default setting by setting the
default bit in the Configuration Set command. See your Controller’s instructions
on how to do this (and if it supports it).
All configuration commands will be reset to their default state when the siren/
strobe is excluded from the Z-Wave network by using the Controller to reset
the node.
