Thank you for purchasing the SSA1 Wireless Siren & Strobe Alarm. This product will provide you with the peace of mind and protection you expect.
The SSA1 is a Z-WaveTM enabled device and will sound a loud siren and flash a strobe light when an alarm message or alert is received on any Z-
WaveTM enabled network. A SSA1 unit that is not in a Z-WaveTM network WILL NOT alert you by the siren nor by the strobe alarm.
Specifications:
Power: DC Power adapter 12V/800mA and one 9V backup alkaline battery, Duracell, Energizer or equivalent
Distance Range: Max 100ft line of sight in unobstructed environment
Product Size (LxWxD): Round 4 3/8” (112mm) x 1 3/4" (45mm) height
Product Weight: 239g (0.5 lb) total weight including power adapter
Operating Temperature: -10ºC (14F) to +70ºC (158F)
Sound Intensity: 119dB @10cm; 105dB@1m
System Requirement: Any Z-WaveTM enabled network and controller.
Testing the SSA1
After connecting power to the SSA1, you can test the alarm mode after manually exiting the Network Wide Inclusion (NWI) mode by pressing the
button once or after the unit is included into any Z-WaveTM enabled network. To test the SSA1, press and hold the button. The SSA1 will turn on
and remain on until the button is released. While the siren is on, it will continually cycle for 1 second off / 4 seconds on for up to 5 minutes or until it
is turned off. While the strobe is on, the unit will flash at a rate of once per second.
Using the SSA1 in a Z-WaveTM Network WARNING: THE SIREN IS EXTREMELY LOUD. WEAR EAR PROTECTION!
Inclusion in (adding to) a network: 1) Set up the inclusion mode at the controller (If the controller supports
NWI, the SSA1 will automatically be included at power on); 2) If the controller does not support NWI, press
the SSA1 button once to exit NWI mode. 3) Press the button again to include the unit in the network. The
controller will indicate that the unit has been included in the network. Also, the Status LED will flash when
the inclusion completes. Inclusion and exclusion are always done at normal transmit power mode.
Exclusion from (removing from) a network: 1) Set up the exclusion mode at the controller; 2) Press the
SSA1 button once. The SSA1 will be removed from the network and the Status LED will flash.
Associations: Once in a network, a controller can be used to associate other devices in the Z-WaveTM network so they can control the SSA1.
Refer to your controller’s documentation on how to associate another device with the SSA1. Devices performing other functions and from other
vendors can also be part of your network and can act as repeaters to extend the network range. Go to www.fortrezz.com for controller examples.
The SSA1 is based on wireless (RF) transmissions. Any wireless transmission can be subject to RF interference and, although unlikely,
this interference may cause the SSA1 to not operate as intended. The SSA1 must not be used in life support and/or safety applications.
Information provided in this document is for your convenience and may be superseded by updates to either the document or the product.
It is your responsibility to ensure that the SSA1 meets with your specifications.
Controlling the SSA1 (MultiLevel Switch Command Class or Basic Command Class)
If a Z-Wave MultiLevel Switch Set or Basic Set signal with a value of 67 to 99 or 255 is received by the SSA1, the unit will sound a 117-decibel
audible alarm and will flash the strobe lights. A value of 1 to 33 will turn on only the strobe lights while a value of 34 to 66 will turn on only the siren.
The same messages with value 0 will turn off both the siren and strobe lights. Or, the SSA1 can be turned off locally by quickly pressing the button
three (3) times. The SSA1 only returns 0, 33, 66, or 99 in response to a Multilevel Switch Get or Basic Get command depending on the mode.
With a controller, the status of any SSA1 in the network can be checked. A gateway controller’s remote access capabilities may allow you to control
or to check the status of any SSA1 in your network from a remote location such as from another city, state, or country.
Other Z-WaveTM Information
Generic Device Class: GENERIC_TYPE_SWITCH_MULTILEVEL; Specific Device Class: SPECIFIC_TYPE_NOT_USED
Manufacturer Specific Command Class: Manufacturer ID: 0x0084, Product Type ID: 0x0313, Product ID: Version and Revision may vary
Version Command Class: Provides Z-Wave and application version information
Configuration Command Class: Parameter 1: Delay, from the time the siren-strobe turns on, before the Basic Set Off command is accepted; 1
Byte (in seconds, default is 0, interpreted as unsigned integer for negative values sent in set command). This could be used, for example, to
avoid the situation where an associated window/door sensor turns the SSA1 alarm on and then immediately off when the window/door is
opened and then quickly closed.
Application Status Command Class: Responds with Application Busy / Try Again in Waittime seconds if a delay is Configured and if Basic Set
is used to try to turn off the SSA1 before the delay time has expired. Waittime is number of remaining seconds in delay.
Multilevel Switch Start and Stop Level Change Commands are implemented; levels change at 10sec intervals.
Alarm Command Class, Ver 2: Signals that the main power has dropped out or has been applied, if a 9V battery is installed.
Z-Wave Alarm Type: Power Management Alarm (0x08)
Z-Wave Alarm Events: Voltage Drop/Drift (0x05); Power Applied (0x01, only sent after Voltage Drop/Drift event)
Z-Wave Alarm Status: 0xFF, Enabled (Factory Default State), 0x00, Disabled
Note: The SSA1 will only send the Alarm Report command unsolicited if it has previously received the Alarm Set Command. In this case, the report
will be sent to the last node from which it received the Alarm Set Command (i.e., it will not be ‘broadcast’ to the Z-Wave network.)
Status LED Indications *If the LED remains on after connecting power, please disconnect and contact FortrezZ, LLC customer service.

Choosing a mounting location
This unique, contemporary siren has a smooth, paintable surface that easily blends with any decor. It mounts to any flat surface wall or ceiling and
is suitable for use in dry, interior locations only. Avoid placing the SSA1 close to a metal frame, or other metal enclosures that may affect RF
range. Suggested SSA1 uses: various alarms in home automation and home security systems and alerts for water leak or water level detection.
Main Power Dropout and Replacing the 9V Backup Battery
If main power drops, the SSA1 will continue to operate on the 9V battery, but, if triggered, will only sound the Siren for approx. 5 seconds and flash
the Strobe for 30 seconds. Also, two seconds after power drops, the SSA1 will sound the siren for 5 seconds and strobe the LEDs for 30 seconds
if a 9V battery is installed. Power dropout status can be monitored by a controller, using the Alarm Command Class Version 2. The controller must
enable power dropout monitoring in the SSA1 by using the Alarm Set command. If the 9V backup battery is not discharged, the SSA1 will send an
alert to that controller at regular intervals when it detects that main power has dropped out. In addition, the status LED will periodically blink.
Under power dropout conditions, if the SSA1’s periodic alerts are not being received, this might be an indication that the backup battery has
discharged or that transmissions from the SSA1 can no longer be routed (perhaps because of power off to the entire house). The 9V backup
battery should be replaced once per year or more often if main power drops out. Do not install batteries that appear damaged or unsealed.
