Quick Start

Configure your performance
Your MultiSensor can be powered by batteries or by USB with an appropriate adapter. For installation and configuration purposes, even if you intend to run your sensor on batteries, we recommend using the supplied USB cable for configuration. To do this you will need an adapter to connect your USB cable, this can include any USB port on a computer and most cell phone chargers. These steps can be performed anywhere in your home
not necessarily at the final installation location of your MultiSensor.

For a USB powered setup;

1. Remove the battery cover by sliding the release button and separating the two parts of the sensor.
2. Plug the appropriate end of the included micro-USB cable into your sensor's USB port. Your MultiSensor is now switched on.

For a battery powered installation;

1. Remove the backing of your sensor as shown in step 1 above.
2. Insert the CR123A batteries in the orientation shown in the figure below. Your MultiSensor is now switched on.Add your MultiSensor to your Z-Wave network.

Now it's time to sync your MultiSensor to a Z-Wave network. The guide below explains how to do this using an Aeotec Z-Stick or Minimote. If you are using an alternative controller for your Z-Wave network, refer to your user manual for instructions on how to join the network.
If you are using a Z-Stick:

1. If your Z-Stick is connected to a gateway or computer, disconnect it.
2. Bring your Z-Stick to your MultiSensor.
3. Press the action button on your Z Stick.
4. Press the action button on your MultiSensor.
5. You can test if your MultiSensor has successfully joined your Z-Wave network by pressing its action button. If you press the button and the LED on your sensor lights up for a few seconds, the recording is successful. If the LED flashes when you press the button, the recording was unsuccessful and you need to repeat the above steps.
6. Press the action button on the Z Stick to reset it to its default operating mode. Return it to your gateway or computer.

When using a minimote:

1. Bring your Minimote to your MultiSensor.
2. Press the Include button on your Minimote.
3. Press the action button on your MultiSensor.
4. You can test if your MultiSensor has successfully joined your Z-Wave network by pressing its action button. If you press the button and the LED on your sensor lights up for a few seconds, the recording is successful. If the LED flashes when you press the button, the recording was unsuccessful and you need to repeat the above steps.
5. Press any button on your Minimote to reset it to its default operating mode.

• Choosing a location for your MultiSensor.
  MultiSensor can take your smart readings to many places in your home, including outside of your home. Note that if installed outside your home, you should only rely on your MultiSensor for temperature, light, humidity and UV readings, while motion detection features should be disabled on your gateway to avoid false readings.
  Light can affect the quality of motion measurements, it's also important to understand environmental changes that can affect other measurements in your home. In particular, your MultiSensor should not be installed in areas with artificial temperature changes. Therefore, when choosing a location, avoid placing it next to or near air conditioners, humidifiers, and heaters, and avoid placing it directly in front of a window or in direct sunlight.
  Choosing a location to install your MultiSensor depends on the use case. In any case or installation location, make sure it fits within the effective motion detection range of your sensor as outlined in these charts.
  For ceiling mounting with the rear mounting arm:

When wall mounting with the rear mounting arm:

For best performance, your MultiSensor should NOT be mounted directly on or near metal structures or other large metal objects. Large metal objects can weaken the Z-Wave radio signal.
If you choose an outdoor location, it is important to place your MultiSensor in a sheltered location. It is best if your MultiSensor is not directly exposed to rain and it is important that the moisture vent on your MultiSensor is never exposed to rain.

• Physically install your MultiSensor
  Now that your MultiSensor is part of your Z-Wave network, it's time to complete your physical installation.
  There are 2 ways to mount your MultiSensor on a wall or ceiling. The rear mounting plate allows you to mount it flat against a wall or ceiling. The rear mounting arm lets you mount it on a surface or in a corner, and position it at any angle you want.

To physically install your MultiSensor:

1. Reconnect the two parts of your MultiSensor. To do this, align the lock/unlock half marks under the unlock icon and then rotate clockwise.
2. If USB is used to power your MultiSensor, make sure the desired installation location can be powered. Please note that when installing in areas where the temperature can fall below -10°C, it is recommended to use USB power and not battery power.
3. Attach the mounting accessories of your choice. This can be the rear attachment arm. You can attach the rear mounting arm with the included 2.5×20mm KA screws or the double-ended arm.Love.Tips:We suggest you choose the second method (using screws to fix the rear mounting arm), which would be more stable.
4. After you have attached the rear mounting arm, you must lock the MultiSensor in place by rotating the MultiSensor on the rear mounting arm.
5. The postmount arm can be locked at different angles by turning the friction lock clockwise and counterclockwise to tighten or loosen the angle of the arm accordingly.

Advanced features

battery change

Your MultiSensor has an integrated battery level detection. During its lifetime, the battery level is automatically reported to the associated controller/gateway until the battery is completely discharged and needs to be replaced. The battery status is often displayed on the controller/gateway user interface.
When used properly on an optimized Z-Wave network, your MultiSensor can run on batteries for 24 months before needing replacement.
Recommendation: For networks that do not offer a way to display the battery level of their MultiSensor, it is recommended to test the sensor from time to time to ensure that the batteries still have enough charge to work. Batteries naturally lose their charge over time.

• Removing your MultiSensor from a Z-Wave network.
  Your MultiSensor can be removed from your Z-Wave network at any time. You will need to use your main Z-Wave network controller to do this, and the instructions below will show you how to do this using the Z-Stick and Aeotec by Aeon Labs mini remote controls. If you are using products other than your primary Z-Wave controller, please read the part of their respective manuals that explains how to remove devices from your network.
  If you are using a Z-Stick:

1. If your Z-Stick is connected to a gateway or computer, disconnect it. Bring your Z-Stick to your MultiSensor.
2. Press and hold the action button on your Z Stick for 3 seconds, then release.
3. Press the action button on your MultiSensor.
4. If your MultiSensor has been successfully removed from your network, its LED will flash when you press the action button on the MultiSensor. If the removal was unsuccessful, the
5. The LED lights up for a few seconds when you press the action button. Press the action button on the Z Stick to bring it out of drawing mode.

When using a minimote:

1. Bring your Minimote to your MultiSensor.
2. Press the delete button on your minimote.
3. Press the action button on your MultiSensor.
4. If your MultiSensor has been successfully removed from your network, its LED will flash when you press the action button. If the erase process was unsuccessful, the LED will glow for a few seconds when you press the action button.
5. Press any button on your minimote to bring it out of kill mode.

Motion Monitoring
When movement is detected by the motion sensor, the MultiSensor can send the basic setting command to association group 1 set via the association command class in order to switch the associated devices to the “OPEN” state. By default, if the motion sensor is not reactivated after 4 minutes, the MultiSensor will send the basic configuration command to these devices to put them in the "CLOSED" state. However, if the motion sensor is triggered again within 4 minutes, the MultiSensor will reset the timer and start timing again.
The 4 minute delay time can be changed using Z-Wave commands built into Z-Wave certified controllers/gateways. (The Z-Wave specific command that supports this function is the configuration command class.) Consult the user manual of these controllers/gateways for specific instructions on configuring the MultiSensor.
Parameter 3 [2-byte decimal] can be set via your gateway if the default settings of your MultiSensor do not meet your requirements.

For example, the setting for this parameter is initially set to 240, which is the delay time in 4 minutes or 240 seconds. You can set the motion sensor delay time you want to any number of seconds. So if you want the timeout to be 5 minutes after the motion sensor is triggered, set this parameter to the value 300.

• Setting the sensitivity of your MultiSensor
  Parameter 6 [1 byte decimal] can be set via your gateway if the default setting of your MultiSensor is not what you want.
  For example, the setting for this parameter is initially set to 64, which corresponds to normal sensitivity; If you set it to 127, the sensitivity is the maximum sensitivity. When set to 0, the sensitivity is the minimum sensitivity.
• Temperature, humidity, luminance and ultraviolet monitoring
  Your MultiSensor can report temperature, humidity, luminance and ultraviolet over a Z-Wave network on demand. If this function is supported by a controller, typically a gateway, the data is displayed within its interface. Z-Wave specific commands to support monitoring are the multi-level sensor command class. Automatic reports are sent to mapping group 1, which is configured via the mapping command class. Please consult the
  Controller User Guide for specific instructions on setting up your
  Multisensor.

Configure flags for automatic reporting
Parameters 101-103 [4 byte dec] can be set via your gateway if the standard settings of your MultiSensor do not meet your requirements.

The table above shows a decimal representation of all flags that can be set in parameters 101-103 to report specific data.

Example of using the report table.
For example, if you only wanted to report the temperature and light sensor, you would add 32 + 64 and set the sum (96) to parameter 101, 102, or 103.
As another example, if you only wanted to report the light sensor and battery, you would add 1 + 128 and then set the sum (129) to parameter 101, 102, or 103.
And if you wanted to report all sensors, you would sum the whole table and set the sum (227) to parameter 101, 102 or 103.
Set an automatic reporting interval.

Parameters 111-113 [4-byte decimal] can be set via your gateway if the default settings of your MultiSensor do not meet your requirements.
Parameter 111 sets the range for group 1 (parameter 101), parameter 112 the range for group 2 (parameter 102) and parameter 113 the range for group 3 (parameter 103).
As an example you have parameter 101 set to 227 which will report all sensors and you want to report this every 1800 seconds. To do this, set parameter 111 to 1800.

• Wake up your MultiSensor
  If your MultiSensor is battery powered, you need to make sure it is
  it is active when configured. To do this, press and hold your Z-Wave
  Hold for 3 seconds and then release. The LED on your MultiSensor should now be solid to indicate it is active.
  When you have finished configuring or communicating with your MultiSensor, you can put it back into sleep mode to save battery power. To do this, press and hold your Z-Wave button for 3 seconds and then release it. The LED on your MultiSensor should now be off to indicate it is sleeping.
• Protection against manipulation of your MultiSensor
  The MultiSensor contains an intelligent vibration sensor. If someone tries to disable your MultiSensor, they can detect it
  Vibration and send an alarm notification to the main controller and we will let you know.
• Security or non-security feature of your MultiSensor on the Z-Wave network
  If you want your MultiSensor to be a non-security related device on your Z-Wave network, you only need to press the action button on the MultiSensor once when using a controller/gateway to add/include your MultiSensor
  In order to take full advantage of the MultiSensor's full functionality, you may want your MultiSensor to be a security device that uses a secure/encrypted message to communicate on the Z-Wave network, therefore an enabled controller/gateway is required for secure use of the multisensor. as a safety device. You must press the MultiSensor action button 2 times within 1 second when your security controller/gateway initiates network attachment.
• Reset your MultiSensor
  At some point, or if your main controller is missing or not working, you may also want to factory reset all of your MultiSensor settings. To do this, press and hold the Z-Wave button for 20 seconds and then release it. Your MultiSensor will now be reset to its original settings and the LED will be solid for 2 seconds and
  then turn on as confirmation.
