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

This Smoke Detector uses a non-radioactive photoelectron-sensor for a reliable and safe detection of 

smoke. The smoke sensitivity is 0.5 % /ft … 4 % /ft. The smoke detector has a test button and a flashing 

LED, so you always know that the smoke alarm is working correctly. The smoke alarm will warn you when 

the battery is low. When the device detects smoke, it will give a loud warning sound. It will also trigger 

actions in other Z-Wave devices or Z-Wave controllers to escalate the alarm. The Smoke Detector can also 

activate an alarm-scenario within the Z-Wave network. For example you can create an alarm-scenario to 

switch on all lights in the house when smoke is detected. Even at the middle of the night, you may leave the 

house very quickly when smoke is detected.

Batteries

The unit is operated by batteries. Use only batteries of correct type. Never mix old and new batteries in the 

same device. Used batteries contain hazardous substances and should not be disposed of with household 

waste!

Battery Type:  3 * CR123A

Installation Guidelines

Remove the bracket from the detector by rotating it counter-clockwise.
