FIBARO Double Smart Module User Manual

1. Introduzione

The FIBARO Double Smart Module (FGS-224) is a compact radio module designed to integrate existing electrical installations into a Z-Wave network. This allows connected devices, such as lighting or airing systems, to be controlled not only by their traditional wall switches but also remotely via a Z-Wave controller, smartphone, or through automated scenes.

Le caratteristiche principali includono:

• Compatible with Z-Wave and Z-Wave+ Controllers.
• Supporta la modalità protetta (modalità di sicurezza di rete Z-Wave) con crittografia AES-128.
• Controllo avanzato tramite microprocessore.
• Two channels dry contact switch.
• Works with various types of switches (momentary or toggle).

4. Configurazione e installazione

The FIBARO Double Smart Module is designed to be placed in a wall box, typically behind a traditional wall switch. It acts as an intermediary, receiving control signals from the switch and then controlling the connected load.

4.1. Wall Box Requirements

It is recommended to use wall boxes with a depth of 65mm. However, smaller boxes with a depth of 45mm can also be used if sufficient space is available behind the switch, considering the size of the traditional switch and any additional cabling.

4.2. Wiring Diagram (General Guidance)

While specific wiring diagrams are typically provided in the physical manual or on the manufacturer's website, the module connects to the existing electrical circuit. The wall switch will no longer directly control the load but will send a signal to the module, which then controls the load. The module supports both momentary and toggle switches.

For detailed wiring instructions, please refer to the official FIBARO documentation or consult a qualified electrician.

4.3. Z-Wave Network Inclusion

Once physically installed and powered, the module needs to be included (paired) into your Z-Wave network. The exact procedure varies depending on your Z-Wave controller. Generally, you will put your Z-Wave controller into inclusion mode and then perform a specific action on the FIBARO module (e.g., triple-clicking a button or toggling the connected switch rapidly) to initiate the pairing process.

5. Funzionamento del modulo

After successful installation and inclusion into your Z-Wave network, the FIBARO Double Smart Module can be operated in several ways:

• Via Existing Wall Switch: Continue to use your traditional wall switch as normal. The module interprets the switch's action and controls the connected load.
• Via Z-Wave Controller: Use your Z-Wave hub's interface (e.g., smartphone app, web interface) to remotely turn the connected devices on or off.
• Scene automatizzate: Integrate the module into Z-Wave scenes or automations. For example, you can set up a scene to turn on garden lights at sunset or activate a sprinkler system based on a schedule or sensor input.

6. Manutenzione

The FIBARO Double Smart Module is designed for maintenance-free operation once installed correctly. No user-serviceable parts are inside.

• Mantenere il dispositivo libero da polvere e detriti.
• Non utilizzare prodotti chimici aggressivi o detergenti abrasivi.
• Assicurare una ventilazione adeguata attorno all'area di installazione per evitare il surriscaldamento.

7. Risoluzione Dei Problemi

If you encounter issues with your FIBARO Double Smart Module, consider the following troubleshooting steps:

• Il dispositivo non risponde:
  • Check if the module is properly powered.
  • Verificare che tutti i collegamenti elettrici siano sicuri e corretti.
  • Ensure the Z-Wave controller is within range and functioning correctly.
  • Try re-including the module into your Z-Wave network.
• Funzionamento intermittente:
  • Check for potential Z-Wave network interference from other devices.
  • Ensure the module is not overloaded beyond its specified wattage (60 watt).
• Problemi di inclusione/esclusione:
  • Ensure your Z-Wave controller is in the correct inclusion/exclusion mode.
  • Perform the inclusion/exclusion procedure close to the controller if possible.

If problems persist, contact FIBARO technical support for further assistance.
