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.
The IR Remote Control can only join ZigBee network within 3 minutes after power on.
1. Insert batteries to power on the IR Remote Control.
2.
Within 3 minutes
, 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. The device can only be reset
within 3 minutes
after power up. If the IR Remote Control has been
powered up for more than 3 minutes, remove and reinsert the battery.
3. Press and hold the function button for 10 seconds, then release the button to reset device.
4. 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.
