3.3. Z-Wave Hub batekin parekatzea
To integrate the sensor into your smart home network:
- Place the sensor within direct range of your Z-Wave controller/hub.
- Set your Z-Wave controller into inclusion (pairing) mode. Refer to your controller's manual for specific instructions.
- Triple-click the B-button located inside the sensor's casing. The LED indicator on the sensor will flash to confirm inclusion mode.
- Once successfully paired, the LED will stop flashing. The sensor should now appear in your Z-Wave controller's device list.
3.4. Sentsorea muntatzea
For optimal performance, mount the sensor and magnet on the moving part of the door/window and its frame, respectively. The distance between the sensor and the magnet should not exceed 5mm when the door/window is closed.
- Clean the desired mounting surfaces thoroughly.
- Attach the main sensor unit to the door/window frame using the provided mounting tape.
- Attach the smaller magnet unit to the moving part of the door/window, aligning it with the main sensor unit. Ensure the alignment marks on both components are facing each other.

3.5. External Temperature Sensor (Optional)
The FGK-101 ZW5 can connect to a DS18B20 temperature sensor. Connect the external temperature sensor to the binary input terminals inside the main unit before closing the casing. Refer to the DS18B20 sensor's documentation for wiring details.
4. Funtzionamendua
Once installed and paired, the FIBARO Door/Window Sensor operates by detecting the presence or absence of the magnetic field from its smaller magnet component. When the door or window opens, the magnet moves away from the main unit, triggering a change in status. When it closes, the magnet returns, and the status reverts.
- Ireki/Itxi detekzioa: The sensor reports its open or closed status to your Z-Wave hub. This information can be used to trigger alarms, activate lights, adjust thermostats, or send notifications.
- Tenperaturaren jarraipena: If an external DS18B20 sensor is connected, the FGK-101 ZW5 will also report temperature readings to your Z-Wave hub, allowing for environmental monitoring.
- Tampbabesa: The sensor includes tamper protection, which will send a notification to your Z-Wave hub if the casing is opened or if the sensor is removed from its mounting location.
5. Mantentzea
5.1. Bateria ordezkatzea
The sensor is powered by a CR123A battery. When the battery level is low, your Z-Wave hub will typically report a low battery warning. To replace the battery:
- Gently open the sensor casing.
- Remove the old CR123A battery.
- Insert a new CR123A battery, ensuring correct polarity.
- Itxi c sentsorea.asing segurtasunez.
Oharra: Battery life can vary depending on usage, reporting frequency, and environmental conditions. Some users have reported varying battery performance, especially with frequent temperature reporting.
5.2. Garbiketa
Clean the sensor's exterior with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these can damage the device.
6. Arazoak
If you encounter issues with your FIBARO Door/Window Sensor, consider the following:
- Sentsorea ez da parekatzen: Ensure the sensor is within range of your Z-Wave hub. Try resetting the sensor to factory defaults (refer to the full product manual for specific reset procedures) and attempting the inclusion process again.
- Incorrect Status Readings: Verify that the main sensor unit and the magnet are properly aligned and within the recommended 5mm distance when the door/window is closed.
- Bateriaren iraupen eskasa: High reporting frequency (especially for temperature) or weak Z-Wave mesh network can reduce battery life. Adjust reporting parameters in your Z-Wave hub settings if possible. Ensure you are using a fresh, high-quality CR123A battery.
- Bateragarritasun arazoak: While compatible with many hubs, specific functionalities or advanced configurations might vary. Consult your Z-Wave hub's documentation or FIBARO's support resources for detailed compatibility information.
- No Temperature Readings: Ensure the DS18B20 external temperature sensor is correctly wired and connected to the main unit's binary input.
