IR Universal Remote Control UPIC-5ZBS
Features
Battery and Low Battery Detection
The IR Remote Control uses two 1.5V Lithium batteries as its power source. It features Low Battery Detection function. When low battery
voltage is detected, the IR Remote Control will transmit Low Battery signal to the coordinator in ZigBee network.
Supervision
The IR Remote Control will transmit a supervision signal to report its condition regularly according to user setting. The factory default interval
is 30 minutes. The user can also press the ZigBee Button once to transmit a supervision signal manually.
ZigBee Network Setup
ZigBee Device Guideline
The IR Remote Control is a wireless communication protocol that is reliable and has low power consumption and high transmission efficiency.
Based on the IEEE802.15.4 standard, ZigBee allows a large amount of devices to be included in a network and coordinated for data exchange
and signal transmission.
Due to the fundamental structure of ZigBee network, ZigBee device will actively seek and join network after powering on. Since performing a
task in connecting network may consume some power, it is required to follow the instructions to avoid draining battery of a ZigBee device.
- Ensure the ZigBee network router/coordinator is powered on before inserting battery into ZigBee device.
- Ensure the ZigBee network router/coordinator is powered on and in range while ZigBee device is in use.
-Do not remove a ZigBee device from the ZigBee network router or coordinator without removing the battery from a ZigBee device.
Joining the ZigBee Network
As a ZigBee device, the IR Remote Control needs to join a ZigBee network to receive command from ZigBee network coordinator to transmit
IR signal. Please follow the steps bellow to join the IR Remote Control into the ZigBee network.
1.
Insert batteries to power on the IR Remote Control.
2. Press and hold the ZigBee button for 10 seconds, then release it to join the network. Please make sure the permit-join feature on the
router or coordinator of your ZigBee network is enabled.
3. After joining the ZigBee network, the IR Remote Control will be registered in the security system in the network automatically. Please
check the security system control panel or CIE (Control and Indicating Equipment) to confirm if joining and registration is successful.
4. If the IR Remote Control successfully joins the ZigBee network, the ZigBee LED will flash twice to indicate.
5. After joining the ZigBee network, if the IR Remote Control loses connection to current ZigBee network, the ZigBee LED indicator will
flash every 20 minutes. Please check the ZigBee network condition and the IR Remote Control signal range to correct the situation.
Removing Device from ZigBee Network (Factory Reset)
To remove the device from current ZigBee network, the IR Remote Control must be put to Factory Reset to complete device removal. Factory
Reset function will clear the IR Remote Control of its stored setting information and prompt the device to search for new ZigBee network.
Before removing device, make sure the device is within current ZigBee network signal range
1.
Delete the IR Remote Control from current control panel / CIE.
2. Press and hold the function button for 10 seconds, then release the button to reset device.
3. Upon reset, the IR Remote Control will clear current ZigBee network setting and transmit signal to ZigBee coordinator to remove
itself from current ZigBee network. It will then actively search for available ZigBee network again and join the network automatically.
OTA Firmware Upgrade
The device supports OTA firmware upgrade feature via ZigBee network, which can be initiated from the ZigBee network coordinator.
Follow steps below to perform OTA firmware upgrade.
1.
You have to access your ZigBee Coordinator to perform the firmware upgrade on the air.
2. On the configuration webpage, select the device that you wish to upgrade and select the new ZigBee
firmware provided. Please refer to ZigBee Coordinator User Manual for detail.
3. Press OK to start upgrading process, please do not perform any other actions, or power down the panel.
4. The length of an upgrade will take approximately 20 to 30 minutes. Please note that the duration may
vary based on file size or distance between your accessory and coordinator.
5. Wait for firmware to complete update. When the progress reaches 100%, the Device will reset
automatically. You can also refresh the webpage again to ensure if the Device firmware
is successfully
updated with the newest version displayed.
