User Manual
Aeotec by Aeon Labs Z-Stick. Aeon Labs Z-Stick Gen5 is a selfpowered Z-Wave® USB adapter with remote network creation capabilities (independent from external power and host microprocessor). By being able to remotely include/remove Z-Wave devices, this greatly simplifies Z-Wave network installation. When connected to a host controller (via USB), it enables the host controller to take part in the Z-Wave Network. The Z-Stick Gen5 is also device firmware upgradeable by the end consumer. This enables the product to always have the latest Z-Wave protocol, capabilities and commands. View the expanded manual: http://aeotec.com/support By taking advantage of the Z-Wave mesh network, commands can be routed to their destination via intermediary “listening” Z-Wave products. Products that are Z-Wave certified can be used and communicate with other Z-Wave certified devices. Familiarize yourself with your Z-Stick. Action Button Reset Button Quick start. The Z-Stick operates in three distinct modes: Inclusion-Mode, RemovalMode and SerialAPI-Mode. Both Inclusion-Mode and Removal-Mode require the Z-Stick to be unplugged from the USB connector of the host, while SerialAPI-Mode requires that the Z-Stick to be plugged into the USB connector of the host. Software drivers for the “ZW050x_USB_VCP_ PC_Driver” may need to be installed in order for the Z-Stick to be recognized on some computers (drivers can be found at http://www.aeotec.com/ support). Inclusion-Mode: Adding/Including Z-Wave Devices into the Z-Wave Network. 1. To initiate Inclusion-Mode, unplug the Z-Stick from the USB connector and then tap the Action Button. (The blue LED will blink slowly.) 2. To include a new Z-Wave device into the network, simply go to the device with the Z-Stick and press the button on the device you wish to include. (The blue LED on the Z-Stick will blink fast during a network neighbour discovery and stay solid for 2 seconds to indicate successful inclusion of the device into the network.) 3. The blue LED will then return to blinking slowly, indicating readiness for further device inclusions. Repeat step 2 for each device you wish to include. 4. Tap the Z-Stick’s Action Button to turn it off or it will automatically exit the removal mode after 30 seconds of inactivity. Removal-Mode: Deleting/ Removing/Excluding Z-Wave Devices from the Z-Wave Network. 1. To initiate Removal-Mode, unplug the Z-Stick from the USB connector. Then press and hold down the Action Button for approximately 2 seconds. (The orange LED will blink fast.) 2. To remove a Z-Wave device from the network, simply go to the device with the Z-Stick and press the button on the device you wish to remove. (The blue LED on the Z-Stick will immediately stay solid for 2 seconds to indicate successful removal from the network.) 3. The orange LED will then return to blink fast, indicating readiness for further device exclusions. Repeat step 2 for each device you wish to exclude. 4. Tap the Z-Stick’s Action Button to turn it off or it will automatically exit the removal mode after 30 seconds of inactivity. Installation and Maintenance Application (IMA) feature. When the Z-Stick is in Serial APIMode and acts a primary controller, it can measure the network health for each device in the network. The different colour of LED indicates the communication quality between the Z-Stick Controller and devices in the network. When the Z-Stick acts an independent/ secondary controller that has been unplugged from the USB host, it also can measure the network health in Z-Wave network. The different colour of LED on the Z-Stick indicates the communication quality between the Central Controller and the current location of Z-Stick in the network. , which means the current Short press the Action Button 5 times, if the colour of LED is changed to purple and then it follows with fast blink, which means it goes into the IMA feature. The colour of LED will be changed according to the network health level. If the colour of LED is changed to green, which means the current communication quality is more than 95% on -7dBm. If the colour of LED is changed to orange, which means the current communication quality is more than 95% on 0dBm. If the colour of LED is changed to purple, which means the current communication quality is less than 95% on 0dBm. If the colour of LED is changed to red, which means the current communication has failed. network quality is acceptable but latency can occur. If the colour of LED is changed to red , which means the Short press the Action Button 5 times again, the Z-Stick will automatically exit the IMA feature. Install the IMA tool software first (note: the IMA tool can be downloaded from here: http://www.aeotec.com/support). Select the node device and then click the IMA test button to start the IMA test between the Central Controller and the node devices. Your IMA tool client will receive the test result and use different colour of LED icon to indicate the network health level, its colour will be changed follow with the change of network health level. If the colour of LED is changed to green , which means the current network quality is good. If the colour of LED is changed to orange current network quality is insufficient. If the IMA tool return a , which means the current network is critical because node is not responding. SerialAPI-Mode: Allowing a Host Processor To Take Control of the Z-Stick and Take Part in the Z-Wave Network. To initiate SerialAPI-Mode, plug the Z-Stick into the USB connector of the host (i.e. PC, MAC, or Gateway). Note: 1). While in SerialAPI-mode, the Z-Stick is always listening (it is awake and always in RX receive mode) for instructions and acts as a Z-Wave adapter and responds to commands sent through USB by the host processor software. 2). Pressing the Action Button will not have any effect while in SerialAPIMode. But short pressing the Reset Button will reset the USB port. Add the Z-Stick to a pre-existing Z-Wave network. This must be done through the host software which takes control of the Z-Stick USB adapter while the Z-Stick is in SerialAPI-Mode. Please consult the instruction manual of the host software to add the Z-Stick to a preexisting Z-Wave network (i.e. “Learn”, “Sync”, “Add as Secondary Controller”, etc.). This function can only be performed via host software. Reset your Z-Stick. At some stage, you may wish to reset all of your Z-Stick’s settings to their factory defaults. To do this, press and hold the Reset Button for 20 seconds and then release it. The Z-Stick will now be reset to its original settings, and the blue LED will solid for 2 seconds as confirmation. The Z-Stick also can be reset to the factory defaults settings via the host software. To do this, the host software must take control of the Z-Stick USB adapter while the Z-Stick is in SerialAPI-Mode. Please consult the instruction manual of the host software to perform a network reset (i.e. factory reset on the Z-Stick). Upgrading the Z-Stick with the Latest Software. 1. Download the Aeon Labs Z-Stick upgrade software that contains the firmware update and UART to USB driver at http://www.aeotec.com/support and run the downloaded program. 2.
