HS-DS100+ User Guide

Installation and setup guide for the HS-DS100+ Z-Wave Door / Window Sensor

Overview

HS-DS100+ is a battery operated sensor that is designed to issue Z-Wave commands when doors or windows are opened or closed. HS-DS100+ may be associated directly with other Z-Wave devices or it may be used with a wide variety of Z-Wave hubs and controllers to trigger events, scenes and other automations.

Operation

HS-DS100+ is comprised of a sensor body and a magnet piece. The sensor body is (typically) installed on a door or window jamb. The magnet piece is (typically) installed on the door or window. When the door or window are closed, the magnet trips a switch inside the sensor body and a Z-Wave command is issued. When the door or window are opened, the switch is tripped again and another Z-Wave command is issued.

Physical Installation

The sensor body and magnet piece must be mounted to the door or window (vertically or horizontally) using the provided screws or double-stick tape (your choice). Leave a gap (no wider than 10mm) to allow the door or window to open and close easily without obstruction. If using screws, you’ll have to the mount the backing plates of the sensor body and magnet pieces first. To do this, press the latch button on the sensor body and gently pry off the backing plate (plate can be difficult to remove). Then, use a small slotted screwdriver to remove the backing plate from the magnet piece.

Z-Wave Network Installation

Door/Window Sensor can be included and operated in any Z-Wave network with other Z-Wave certified devices from other manufacturers and/or other applications. All non-battery operated nodes within the network will act as repeaters regardless of vendor to increase reliability of the network.

Note: If you want this Door/window sensor to function as a security device using secure/encrypted Z-Wave communications, then a security enabled Z-Wave controller is required.

  • Inclusion (Use this procedure to add the HS-DS100+ to your Z-Wave network).
    1. Ensure AAA batteries are installed. Remove any plastic from battery compartment (if necessary)
    2. Put your home automation controller into ‘inclusion’ mode. Consult your system’s manual for details.
    3. Triple-click the Z-Wave button inside the sensor body. Wait for the process to finish.
    4. If successful, the sensor body LED will blink briefly and then stay on for 3 seconds. If unsuccessful, the LED with blink briefly and then turn off. Should this happen, repeat the inclusion process.
  • Exclusion (Use this procedure to remove the HS-DS100+ from your Z-Wave network).
    1. Put your home automation controller into ‘exclusion’ mode. Consult your system’s manual for details.
    2. Triple-click the Z-Wave button inside the sensor body. If successful, the LED will turn off within 1 second. If unsuccessful, the LED with blink for 5 seconds. Should this happen, repeat the exclusion process.
  • Reset (Use this procedure to reset the HS-DS100+ to factory default settings when the network primary controller is missing or otherwise inoperable).
    1. Press and hold the Z-Wave button inside the sensor body for 20 seconds, the LED will stay on until release the button.
