Wheel Controller

Short Description

Rotary Wheel Wall Controller for controlling a Heating Zone, Central Scenes and up to four separate Light Zones.

Long Description

The SE Devices Wheel Controller Z-Wave is a modular Wall-Box mountable control wheel, which is controllable over a Z-Wave Home Automation Network. The device can be added to and remote controlled via a Z-Wave Home Automation network. This product can be operated in any Z-Wave network with other Z-Wave certified devices from other manufacturers. All non-battery operated nodes within the network will act as repeaters regardless of vendor to increase reliability of the network. The Wheel Controller unit itself can be combined with a Back Unit hidden inside a wall-box to provide local control possibilities. It can also operate in a Stand-Alone mode, powered via a Cascade connector to another unit (Multifunction Switch or Wheel Controller). There are a variety of Back Units available for the Wheel, which can provide Local control functionality such as Relay Control and Dimming. The Wheel is backed by 4 push buttons, located at the Upper, Lower, Left and Right sides of the wheel. By pushing on these points of the wheel, the various functions of the wheel can be accessed and controlled. The Wheel can be rotated in a clockwise and counter clockwise direction to control the Light Level, adjust temperature settings for the Thermostat and issue Central Scene commands. The current operation is shown in the display at all times. When used as a Thermostat, the display will show information on thermostat operation when the device is Idle.

Parameter Values

Safety ON Period

The number of seconds to stay in ON mode when Safety is activated. The Back Unit turns back OFF when the timer have elapsed (and continues to turn ON and OFF alternately). If value is 0, the Back Unit WILL NOT turn ON at all. The MAX limit is 32767 seconds (9 hours, 6 minutes and 7 seconds). A 60 second minimum period applies.

300

Safety OFF Period

The number of seconds to stay in OFF mode when Safety is activated. The Back unit turns ON when the timer have elapsed. If value is 0, the Back Unit will not turn back ON. The MAX limit is 32767 seconds (9 hours, 6 minutes and 7 seconds). A 60 second minimum period applies.

Dimmer Mode

Defines if Dimmer should operate in Leading or Tailing Edge mode. Most Lights work quite OK in the default Leading Edge mode, but this mode also usually cause some noise from the dimmer unit. During installation it is therefore recommended to try TE mode, and use this if the Light operates properly. Tailing Edge mode is known to cause instability in some type of Lights! This configuration does not have an effect on 1-10V Dimmer Back Units! 0 = Leading Edge Mode (LE) 1 = Tailing Edge Mode (TE)

Temperature Report Inteval

Defines the Periodic Report interval for temperature readings. This can be configured to a minimum of 60 seconds and maximum of (32767 seconds. A 0 value disables the Interval based Periodic reporting, and any value below 60 results in a 60 second interval.

Temperature Report Threshold

Defines a temperature change threshold where a temperature report is sent regardless of the Report Interval. This also works if the report interval is disabled. The value is given in 1/10 of a degree celsius, and can be in the range 1-127. A zero value disables the Threshold.

Thermostat On∕Off Interval Override Threshold

Defines a temperature threshold at which the configured On/Off interval is overridden and the Heating relay state will change regardless. The value is given in 1/10th of a degree, supporting a max threshold of 12.7 degrees celcius. A Zero (0) value disables this feature (the default)

Floor Sensor Temperature Offset

Defines an offset to the Floor Temperature, given as a signed integer at 1/10 of a degree celcius. This provides an offset range of –12.8 to +12.7 degrees celcius (-128 to 127).

Safety Activate Delay

Safety Mode is activated after the configured number of seconds has elapsed. It will start by turning OFF the Back Unit when activated. A 0 value Disables Safety Mode. The MAX limit is 32767 seconds (9 hours, 6 minutes and 7 seconds). The minimum Actication delay is 60 seconds, and values from 1 to 59 will automatically be translated to a 60 second delay.

Back Unit Role

Configures the Role of the Back Unit, which dictates what Local functionality controls it. Valid configuration values are: 0 - The Thermostat will control the Back Unit (if the back unit is a dimmer, then this value has no effect as Thermostats requires a relay to function) 1 - The Light Control feature (buttons) will control the Back Unit. 2 - Disconnected mode means the Back Unit is not controlled by any local UI or features, and can only be controlled via Z-Wave End-Point 5 (or non-channel encapsulated commands).

Hardware Combination Identifier

READONLY Byte which uniquely describes the combination of Front and Back Unit in the current installation. The first nibble (4 bits) Identifies the Controlling Unit (Front unit), which is always 0x3 for the Wheel Controller. The combined Byte then yields the following: - 0x30 - 2-Pole 8A Relay - 0x31 - 1-10V Dimmer - 0x32 - 230V MOSFET Dimmer - 0x33 - 1-Pole 16A Relay - 0x3F - No Back Unit connected

1	Inclusion	To add the device to a Z-Wave network, the Z-Wave Controller must first be set into Add mode. Once the Controller is listening for devices to add, Push and Hold the lower part of the Wheel Controller for 5 seconds. The device will indicate that it sends information to the Controller by showing a Radio Communication Icon in the display. The Controller should now discover the device and add it to the Z-Wave network. Once added, the device should respond commands over the Z-Wave network.
2	Exclusion	Removal is done by setting the Controller in Remove Mode (instead of Add mode), and then follow the exact same procedure on the device itself as when adding the device.
6	Additional Special Features	The Wheel Controller is capable of controlling local loads via a modular Back Unit. The back unit can be mounted and connected to mains electricity inside a Electrical Wall box. Two types of Relay and Dimmer Back Units are currently available. The maximum controllable local load are specified in each Back Unit product sheets.
5	Factory Reset	Follow this procedure to Factory Reset the Wheel Controller. This will restore all configuration parameters back to the default settings, and remove the device from the Z-Wave network. WARNING! Executing a Factory Reset on a device may make it stop working as wanted, and will disable remote control of the device. The device will have to be re-added to the Z-Wave network and reconfigured afterwards, to regain the previous operation of the device. Please DO NOT execute this procedure unless it is absolutely necessary. Step 1: Push and Hold the DOWN and LEFT wheel buttons at the same time, and keep holding them for approximately 15 seconds. It is recommended to use two fingers to insure that both buttons are pushed completely down. Step 2: Release the buttons when the text “RESET” appears in the display, after approximately 15 seconds. Step 3: Then Push and Hold UP (marked OK) for approximately 1 second to CONFIRM the Factory Reset. Pushing any other direction button will Cancel the Factory Reset, and restore normal operation. Also, if the RESET is not confirmed within 5 seconds, the device will resume normal operation. Step 4: When you confirm the Reset by pushing and holding UP, the RESET text will start blinking. Then the device will resume operation, but with all configuration Reset to their defaults. Also, if the device was added to a Z-Wave network, the device will no longer be available for Z-Wave control (only Local control will work).
