Malfunction (Error) Signal 

If you hear 3 beeps with yellow LED flashing 3 times in 43 seconds, it indicates 
that the unit does not work properly.    Please have it repaired or serviced. 
 

Testing Your Smoke Detector 

Test  the  alarm  weekly  by  pushing  firmly  on  the  test  button  with  your  finger  for 
around 4 seconds until the horn sounds. The sound pattern is 3 beeps, pause, 
and then 3 beeps with red LED flashing continuously and rapidly. If the smoke 
alarm beeps three times with yellow LED flashing three times in 43 seconds, it 
indicates  the  smoke  alarm  is  not  working  properly  and  that  it  needs  to  be 
repaired or serviced. 
 

WARNING:

 Never use an open flame to test your detector.    You may set fire to 

damage the detector, as well as your home. 
 

WARNING

: When you are not testing the unit and the alarm horn sounds a loud 

continuous  sound,  this  means  the  detector  has  sensed  smoke  or  combustion 
particles  in  the  air.    Be  sure  that  the  alarm  horn  is  a  warning  of  a  possible 
serious situation that requires your immediate attention. 

 
 
Programming 

 

1. Z-Wave’s Group (Association Command Class Version 2)

 

 
The Smoke Detector supports association Group1 for 1 node and Group2 for up 
to 3 nodes.    This has the effect that when the detector is triggered, the device(s) 
associated with the detector will receive the relevant reports.    Please refer to 
the  sections  below  for  more  details  on  the  reports  that  the  detector  will  emit 
when event occurs. 
 

Group1 Commands 

 
1.1 Smoke Event Report 
 
Once  the  detector  is  triggered  by  smoke,  the  detector  will  send 
SENSOR_ALARM_REPORT  command  (Sensor  Type  =  0x01,  Sensor  State  = 
0xFF) to the node of Group1 to inform there is a smoke event.    The command 
will  be  re-sent  if  the  node  of  Group1  does  not  receive  the  signal.    When  the 
event is cleared, the detector will send SENSOR_ALARM_REPORT command 

(Sensor Type = 0x01, Sensor State = 0x00) to the node of Group1. 
 
1.2 Tamper Trigger Report 
 
When the tamper is triggered (that is, the detector is opened with tamper switch 
being released), the detector will emit ALARM_REPORT command (Alarm Type 
= 0x03, Alarm Level = 0x01) to the node of Group1. 
 
1.3 Low Battery Report 
 
When  the  battery  level  of  the  detector  drops  to  an  unacceptable  level,  the 
detector will send ALARM_REPORT command (Alarm Type = 0x01, Alarm Level 
=  0x01)  to the node of Group1.    The detector  will  detect the battery condition 
once every 6 hours.    If the Low Battery condition remains, the command signal 
will be sent to the node of Group1 once every 6 hours. 
 

Group2 Commands 

 
1.4 Commands for other devices 
 
When  the  detector  is  triggered  by  smoke,  the  detector  will  send  Basic  Set 
command  (Value  =  0xFF)  to  the  nodes  of  Group2  to  inform  there  is  a  smoke 
event.    When the event is cleared,  the  detector will  send Basic Set command 
(Value = 0x00) to the nodes of Group2. 
 

2. Command Classes
