FIBARO is a wireless system, based on Z-Wave technology.
FIBARO provides many advantages when compared to similar
systems. In general, radio systems create a direct connection
between the receiver and transmitter. But the radio signal is
weakened by various obstacles located on its path (apartment walls,
furniture, etc.) and in extreme cases it fails to transfer required data.
The advantage of FIBARO system is that its devices apart from
being transmitters and receivers of signals, they are also a signal
"duplicators". When a direct connection path between the transmitter
and the receiver can not be established, the connection may be
achieved through other intermediate devices.
FIBARO is a bi-directional wireless system. It means that the signal
is not only sent to the receivers but also the receivers send the
confirmation of its reception. This operation confirms their status so
to check whether they are active. Safety of the FIBARO system
transmission is comparable to the safety of transmission in data bus
wired systems.
FIBARO operates in the free band for data transmission. The
frequency depends on radio regulations in individual country . Each
FIBARO network has its own unique network identification number
(home ID), which is why it is possible to co-operate two or more
independent systems in a single building without any interference.
Although Z-Wave is quite new technology, it has already become
recognizable and officially binding standard, similarly to Wi-Fi. Many
manufacturers in various industries offer solutions based on Z-Wave
technology, guaranteeing their compatibility. This means that the
system is open and it may be extended in the future. Find more
information at www.fibaro.com.
FIBARO generates a dynamic network structure. After FIBARO
system is switched on, the location of its individual components is
automatically updated in real-time through status confirmation
signals received from devices operating in a "mesh" network.
The In-Wall Double Relay Switch is hereinafter referred to as Fibaro
Switch. It is designed to switch on/off devices connected to its
terminals using radio waves, controllers and a push button directly
connected to Fibaro Switch.
Danger of electrocution.

III Activating Double Relay Switch
1. Installing the Double Relay Switch
STEP 1
Connect the device in accordance with the circuit diagram presented
in Figure 1. Switch on 230V of the mains voltage.
[Adding/ Removing] Double Relay Switch [to/ from] Z-wave
network
STEP 2
Double Relay Switch must be placed within the range of Home
Center controller, as adding mode requires direct communication
with the controller.
STEP 3
Find key no. 1 which allows to switch circuit 1 on, in accordance with
the diagram
STEP 4
Set the Home Center controller in add/remove mode (see the
controller's manual)
STEP 5
Add Double Relay Switch to the network by pushing three times key
no. or push-button B located inside the housing of the device. For
bi-stable switch perform 3 position changes.
WARNING!
Double Relay Switch cancels the "learning" mode
after key no. 1 is pressed once. Therefore, pressing
key no. 1 four times will not add the devices to the
network. The same applies to push-button B.
i
WARNING!
Double Relay Switch is set by default to operate with
mono-stable switches (i.e. single-pole switch or bell
switch). While adding Double Relay Switch to the
network with bi-stable switches, ensure that all
switch contacts are open (off), because closing them
results in activating the push-button and this will
prevent adding the device to the network.
i
During the installation it is recommended to use a
mono-stable keys or push- button B.
STEP 6
The controller indicates when the device is correctly added to the
network, (see the manual of Home Center controller).
2. Resetting Double Relay Switch
Fibaro Switch provides three methods for resetting.
Method I :
Reset by removing Double Relay Switch from the
existing Z-Wave network. The device may be removed using the
controller that has the ability to include/exclude devices from/to
Z-Wave network (see the manual of controller).
Method II
: Within 5 sec. after connecting mains voltage supply
Double Relay Switch allows the user to reset settings by single
pressing S1 key and then holding key S2
Method III
: Reset by holding B button for 3 sec. after connecting
mains voltage to the Switch
3. Controlling Double Relay Switch by mono-stable
or bi-stable switches.
Mono-stable switch (after releasing the push-button a spring
automatically pushes back and disconnects the button )
- Turning on/off circuit 1 or 2 - briefly press the push-button
corresponding to a chosen circuit (see diagram).
Bi-stable switch (operates as a two-position switch, it has no
spring that would push back the device after releasing manual
pressure)
- Turning on/off the circuit - change the position of selected
push-button from the current position.
4. Controlling Double Relay Switch using a
command: ALL ON / ALL OFF
Double Relay Switch responds to commands ALL ON / ALL OFF that
may be sent by the controller. ALL ON / ALL OFF commands are
usually implemented in Z-Wave remote control.
By default, Double Relay Switch accepts both active commands ALL
ON and ALL OFF. Settings may be changed by entering an
appropriate value into configuration register no. 1 (see configuration)
5. Controlling Double Relay Switch using Home
Center controller
After adding Double Fibaro Switch to the network, it will be
represented in Home Center by the following two icons (one icon
represents one channel):
Turning on/off the device connected to Double Relay Switch is
performed by pressing ON/OFF icon.
Association enables Fibaro Switch to directly control a device
included in Z-Wave network e.g. Dimmer, Switch (ON-OFF), Roller
Shutter or scene (scene may be controlled only through the Home
Center controller).

Double Relay Switch
shown by Home Center
controller
IV Association
WARNING!
Association ensures direct transfer of control
commands between devices, and is performed
without participation of the main controller.
i
Fibaro Switch provides association of three groups.
1st group is assigned to key no. 1
2nd group is assigned to key no. 2
3rd group reports state of devices. Only one device can be
associated to this group.
Fibaro Switch enables user to control up to 16 normal devices, and 7
MultiChannel devices in group no. 1 and no. 2, group no. 3 has only
one field. The first field in each group is reserved for the network
controller. It is recommended to use up to 10 devices, as the time
required by the device to send a command to each associated
device may be quite long.
To add an association (using the Home Center controller), go to
device options by clicking the following icon:
Select the "device options" tab. Then specify to which group and
what devices are to be associated. Sending relevant information to
devices added to associated groups may take even a few minutes.
WARNING!
When Fibaro Switch sends control commands and
a new command is issued, then the current one
command transmission is interrupted to send new
commands.
i
FGS221 Fibaro Switch supports the operation of multi-channel
devices. Multichannel devices are devices that include two or more
circuits inside one physical unit.
The following settings are available in the Fibaro interface as simple
options that may be chosen by selecting the appropriate box
In order to configure Fibaro Switch (using the Home Center
controller), go to device options by clicking the following icon:

FGS221 Double Relay Switch is a multichannel device. It means
that it has two independent executive circuits - each circuit is
recognized by the Home Center controller as a separate device.
Accordingly, each channel is represented by an independent icon.
The first channel is operated by a push-button connected to S1
terminal and it is the main (default) channel.
The association of the second channel of the double relay switch
may be operated only by devices supporting multi-channel
association !
