Z-WAVE RAnGE TEST
#10: Z-Wave range test
FIBARO Dimmer 2 has a built in Z-Wave network main controller’s
range tester
.
Follow the below instructions to test the main controller’s range:
1. Press and hold the B-button until the visual indicator glows violet
2. Release the B-button
3. Press the B-button again, briefly
4. Visual indicator will indicate the Z-Wave network’s range (range
signalling modes described below)
5. To exit Z-Wave range test, press the B-button briefly
Z-Wave range tester signalling modes
:
Visual indicator pulsing green
- Dimmer 2 attempts to establish a
direct communication with the main controller. If a direct commu-
nication attempt fails, the device will try to establish a routed com-
munication, through other modules, which will be signalled by visual
indicator pulsing yellow.
Visual indicator glowing green
- Dimmer 2 communicates with the
main controller directly.
Visual indicator pulsing yellow
- Dimmer 2 tries to establish a rout-
ed communication with the main controller through other modules
(repeaters).
Visual indicator glowing yellow
- Dimmer 2 communicates with
the main controller through the other modules. After 2 seconds the
device will retry to establish a direct communication with the main
controller, which will be signalled with visual indicator pulsing green.
Visual indicator pulsing violet
- Dimmer 2 does communicate at the
maximum distance of the Z-Wave network. If connection proves suc-
cessful it will be confirmed with a yellow glow. It’s not recommended
to use the device at the range limit.
Visual indicator glowing red
- Dimmer 2 is not able to connect to
the main controller directly or through another Z-Wave network de-
vice (repeater).
CAUTION
To make Z-Wave range
test possible, the de-
vice must be added
to the Z-Wave control-
ler. Testing may stress
the network, so it is
recommended to per-
form the test only in
special cases.
!
NOTE
Communication mode
of the Dimmer 2 may
switch between direct
and one using rout-
ing, especially if the
device is on the limit
of the direct range.
