Z-Wave Remote Control
Firmware Version : 0.0
Quick Start
RThis device is a Z-Wave Remote Control.
Push the "Include" button for 2 seconds to include the device into an existing the Z-Wave network. For
Inclusion of Z-Wave devices into the remote controls network press 3 times the "Inclusion" button on the
backside of the remote control and confirm by pressing the dedicated button on the target.
Please refer to the chapters below for detailed information about all aspects of the products usage.
What is Z-Wave?
This device is equipped with wireless communication complying to the Z-Wave standard. Z-Wave is the
international standard for wireless communication in smart homes and buildings. It is using the
frequency of 868.42 MHz to realize a very stable and secure communication. Each message is reconfirmed
(two-way communication) and every mains powered node can act as a repeater for other nodes (meshed
network) in case the receiver is not in direct wireless range of the transmitter.
Z-Wave differentiates between Controllers and Slaves. Slaves are either sensors (S) transmitting metered or
measured data or actuators (A) capable to execute an action. Controllers are either static mains powered
controllers (C) also referred to as gateways or mobile battery operated remote controls (R). This results in a
number of possible communication patterns within a Z-Wave network that are partly or completely supported
by a specific device.
1. Controllers control actuators
2. Actuators report change of status back to controller

3. Sensors report change of status of measured values to controller
4. Sensors directly control actuators
5. Actuators control other actuators
6. Remote controls send signals to static controllers to trigger scenes or other actions
7. Remote controls control other actuators.
There are two different role a controller can have. There is always one single primary controller that is managing the
network and including/excluding devices. The controller may have other functions - like control buttons - as well. All other
controllers don't manage the network itself but can control other devices. They are called secondary controllers. The
image also shows that its not possible to operate a sensor just from a remote control. Sensors only communicate with
static controllers.
Product description
The DUWI Remote Control controls Z-Wave actuators such as dimmers, switches, thermostats or motor
controls for blinds or jalousies. Devices can be turned on and off but dimmers and motor controls can also
be turned into a desired dimming level to motor position by keeping a button pushed and releasing it.
Additionally the device can act as a primary controller of a Z-Wave network using three dedicated network
control buttons located behind a sliding cover. 10 pair of buttons - illuminated by blue light when operated -
allow to control up to 7 control groups (association groups) and 3 scenes. The scenes learn the desired
status of selected actuators and can turn them back into this status just hitting a button. The devices in the 7
control groups a re always switched simultaneously. The remote control can operate as a secondary control
beside an IP-Gateway however it is not possible from this device to activate scenes defined in the IP-
Gateway. All scenes and control groups are stored within the remote control and they are also conveniently
programmed using the buttons of the remote rather than using wireless commands from an IP-Gateway.
Before Device is installed
Please read carefully the enclosed user manual before installation of the radio-actuator, in order to ensure
an error-free functioning.
ATTENTION: only authorized technicians under consideration of the country-specific installation
guidelines/norms may do works with 230?Volt mains power. Prior to the assembly of the product, the
voltage network has to be switched off and ensured against re-switching.
The product is permitted only for proper use as specified in the user manual. Any kind of guarantee claim
has to be forfeited if changes, modifications or painting are undertaken. The product must be checked for
damages immediately after unpacking. In the case of damages, the product must not be operated in any
case. If a danger-free operation of the equipment cannot be assured, the voltage supply has to be
interrupted immediately and the equipment has to be protected from unintended operation.
Behavior within the Z-Wave network
IOn factory default the device does not belong to any Z-Wave network. The device needs to join an
existing wireless network to communicate with the devices of this network. This process is called Inclusion.
Devices can also leave a network. This process is called Exclusion. Both processes are initiated by the
(c) 2012 Z-Wave Europe GmbH, Goldbachstr. 13, 09337 Hohenstein-Ernstthal, Germany, All rights reserved, www.zwaveeurope.com - pp 2

primary controller of the Z-Wave network. This controller will be turned into exclusion respective inclusion
mode. Please refer to your primary controllers manual on how to turn your controller into inclusion or
exclusion mode. Only if the primary controller is in inclusion or exclusion mode, this device can join or leave
the network. Leaving the network - i.e. being excluded - sets the device back to factory default.
If the device already belongs to a network, follow the exclusion process before including it in your network.
Otherwise inclusion of this device will fail. If the controller being included was a primary controller, it has to
be reset first.
For including the remote control as a secondary controller into an existing the Z-Wave network do the
following steps:
Bring your primary controler into inclusion mode.
Press and hold the "Iclusion" button for 2 seconds. The LED will flash green for a moment for
confirmation.
Operating the device
The DÜWI Remote Control can either built and manage its own Z-Wave network or work together with a IP-
Gateway in one common network. It has 10 different button groups to control 10 different devices or groups
of devices.
As Single Controller
All Z-Wave devices are connected to the remote control with two steps:
1. Include device into Z-Wave: Triple-Click the ,Incl.'-button on the backside of the device (LED will blink
green), then confirm the Inclusion on the new device. (This is usually done by a single or triple click of
a button on this device. Please consult the devices manual for more information about this process.
As a result of this confirmation the device sends out a Node Information Frame NIF.)
(c) 2012 Z-Wave Europe GmbH, Goldbachstr. 13, 09337 Hohenstein-Ernstthal, Germany, All rights reserved, www.zwaveeurope.com - pp 3

2. Keep ,Assoc.'-button pressed for 2 seconds until LED blinks green; now hit one button of the button
group you want to new device be controlled from; finally confirm by issuing a Node Information Frame
NIF from this device (consult manual for information how to do this).
3. A convenient way to combine (1) and (2) is to triple click one of the buttons of the group the new
device shall be controlled from; then confirm on the device - done!
Each button of the button group has different functions:
,On' - short click: turn on device(s)
,On' - pushed: dim up light or wind up jalousie until button is released
,Off' - short click: turn off device(s)
,Off' - pushed: dim down light or wind down jalousie until button is released
Status: Call the status of the device controlled. Blue LED indicated 'on', red LED indicates 'off'. A blinking
LED indicated that different devices controlled by this button group have different switching states.
Specialty of the Scene-Groups
The three scene button groups allow individually assigning switching states of the devices controlled by this
groups. This means that one device may dim to a certain level, another device is turned off and one other
device is turned on - all by hitting one single button (the normal groups only allow to simultaneously control
device). Assign the device to this group and make sure you leave it in the desired state after sending out the
NIF.
The button group ,All On/Off' turns on or off all those actuators supporting this function and being configured
accordingly. The configuration is usually done using an IP Gateway.
Together with an IP-Gateway
The remote control can both be included by an IP-Gateway as secondary controller or it can include an IP-
Gateway (or any other Z-Wave controller) as secondary controller remaining the primary controller of the
network. As a primary controller the DÜWI remote can still be used to include further devices.
Being included by an IP-Gateway causes two possible pit falls:
In case the remote control already included new devices they can't be moved into the new network. The 'be-
included'-function is therefore blocked after the first inclusion of a device. The remote control needs to be
reset first before included into the IP-Gateways network. The previously included devices need to be re-
included as well. (To reset the remote control, keep 'Excl.' pressed for 5 seconds until the LED flashed
red/green/yellow. Now triple-click 'All On' (LED flashes faster) and then triple-click 'All Off'.)
The remote control included as secondary controller will learn about all devices already included by the IP-
Gateway. They can now be controlled by the remote control as well. All devices included after the inclusion
of the remote control may sometimes not be visible to the remote. Just re-include the remote control again
to solve the problem. In this case no configuration will get lost.

The inclusion of the remote into an IP-Gateway is initiated by the IP-Gateway. It needs to be turned into
inclusion mode. Pushing 'Incl.' for 2 second confirms the inclusion process and turns the remote control into
a secondary controller of the IP-Gateway. The IP-Gateway will show the remote control as a new device but
will not offer any further functions. All management of button groups etc. is still done using the buttons of the
remote control!
Trigger Scenes in an IP-Gateway
This remote control is no dedicated scene controller for IP-Gateways. Nevertheless it is possible to trigger
scenes in the Gateway in a limited way. The IP gateway can be associated to a button group the very same
way as any other device (The IP Gateway needs to provide a way to issue a Node Information Frame for
this.). The remote control will now send the values 0xff (On button) and 0x00 (Off button) to the IP-Gateway
that can be used to activate scenes in this IP-Gateway. Please refer to the manual of the IP-Gateway how to
set scene triggers. Some IP-Gateways may try to wirelessly configure the remote control to perform this
step. This will fail but the scene triggering still works. The scene values are independent of the group and
assigning the IP-Gateway to another group will result in sending the very same values and subsequently
triggering the very same scenes.
Wakeup Intervals - how to communicate with the device?
WThis device is battery operated and turned into deep sleep state most of the time to save battery
life time. Communication with the device is limited. In order to communicate with the device, a static
controller Cis needed in the network. This controller will maintain a mailbox for the battery operated devices
and store commands that can not be received during deep sleep state. Without such a controller,
communication may become impossible and/or the battery life time is significantly decreased.
This device will wakeup regularly and announce the wakeup state by sending out a so called Wakeup
Notification. The controller can then empty the mailbox. Therefore, the device needs to be configured with
the desired wakeup interval and the node ID of the controller. If the device was included by a static
controller this controller will usually perform all necessary configurations. The wakeup interval is a tradeoff
between maximal battery life time and the desired responses of the device.
Pressing the "INCL." button for 2 seconds will wake up the device.
It is possible to set the node ID to 255 to send wakeup notifications as broadcast. In this mode device takes more time to
go to sleep and drains battery faster, but can notify all it's direct neighbors about a wakeup.
Node Information Frame
NI The Node Information Frame is the business card of a Z-Wave device. It contains information
about the device type and the technical capabilities. The inclusion and exclusion of the device is confirmed
by sending out a Node Information Frame. Beside this it may be needed for certain network operations to
send out a Node Information Frame.
Pressing the "INCL." button for 2 seconds will send out a Node Information Frame.

SA
Setting Associations:
For assigning devices to a button group do the following steps:
Press and hold "Assoc." button for 2 seconds.
Press "On" button of the group to which the device should be assigned.
Send out a NIF with the device which should be assigned.
Removing Associations:
For removing an assigned device from a button group do the following steps:
Press and hold "Assoc." button for 2 seconds.
Press "Off" button of the group from which the device should be removed.
Send out a NIF with the device which should be removed.
Special Functions as Z-Wave Controller
As long as this device is not included into a Z-Wave network of a different controller it is able to manage its
own Z-Wave network as primary controller. As a primary controller the device can include and exclude other
devices in its own network, manage associations, and reorganize the network in case of problems. The
following controller functions are supported:
Include other device in own network
CI Communication between two Z-Wave devices only works if both belong to the same wireless
network. Joining a network is called inclusion and is initiated by a controller. The controller needs to be
turned into the inclusion mode. Once in this inclusion mode the other device needs to confirm the inclusion -
(c) 2012 Z-Wave Europe GmbH, Goldbachstr. 13, 09337 Hohenstein-Ernstthal, Germany, All rights reserved, www.zwaveeurope.com - pp 6

typically by pressing a button.
For Inclusion of Z-Wave devices into the remote controls network do the following steps:
Press 3 times the "Inclusion" button on the backside of the device.
Confirm by pressing the dedicated button on the target (send NIF).
If current primary controller in your network is in special SIS mode this and any other secondary controller can also
include and exclude devices.
To become primary a contoller have to be resetted and then include a device.
Exclude device from network
The primary controller can exclude devices from the Z-Wave network. During exclusion the relationship
between the device and the network of this controller is terminated. No communication between the device
and other devices still in the network can happen after a successful exclusion. The controller needs to be
turned into the exclusion mode. Once in this exclusion mode the other device needs to confirm the
exclusion - typically by pressing a button.
Attention: Removing a device from the network means that it is turned back into factory default status. This
process can also exclude devices from it's previous network.
For Exclusion of Z-Wave devices from the remote controls network do the following steps:
Press and hold the "Exclusion" button on the backside of the device for 2 seconds.
Confirm by pressing the dedicated button on the target (send NIF).
Set association between two device in Z-Wave network
CA The controller is able to set association between two other devices in the network. The controller
is turned into an association mode both devices are announced by pressing a button. After both association
partners are known the controller will perform all necessary steps to set the association.
Setting Associations:
For setting associations for Z-Wave devices into the remote controls network do the following steps:
Press and hold "Assoc." button for 2 seconds.
Press "Incl." button.
Send out a NIF with the primary device which should trigger the action.
Send out a NIF with the secondary device which should be controlled.
Update Network Information
(c) 2012 Z-Wave Europe GmbH, Goldbachstr. 13, 09337 Hohenstein-Ernstthal, Germany, All rights reserved, www.zwaveeurope.com - pp 7

As a battery operated controller the device will not automatically received updates about the network
structure. This process should be initiated when the primary controller has included/excluded devices and it
will result in an update of the network information in the battery operated controller. This prevents wrong
communication that may cost battery life and delay other communication.
Network Update
Press and hold for 10 seconds the Status button of a group to update the group or press and hold for 10
seconds the "All On/Off" button for a network-wide update.
it is possible that a network update fails if the network was changed too much after the last update. In this case the the
device need to be reincluded. Re-Inclusion is similar to a normal inclusion. Its just not needed to exclude the device
before. Re-Inclusion makes sure that the node ID of the device remails unchanged.
Reset the Controller
Press and hold the "Excl." button for 5 seconds (LED blinks red/yellow/green).
Press 3 times the "All On" button (LED blinks faster).
Press 3 times the "All Off" button.
