Frequently Asked Questions - FGBHS-213 Fibaro

How do I pair the Fibaro FGBHS-213 with my Z-Wave hub?

Insert the battery, then press the tamper button three times quickly. The LED will blink. Follow your hub’s inclusion procedure. Ensure the sensor is within 2 meters of the hub during pairing.

What battery does the FGBHS-213 use and how long does it last?

It uses a CR123A 3V lithium battery. Battery life is approximately 2 years under normal use, depending on report frequency and environmental conditions.

Can I place the sensor outdoors?

No, the device has an IP20 rating and is designed for indoor use only. Exposure to rain or moisture may damage it.

How do I reset the sensor to factory defaults?

Remove the battery, press and hold the tamper button, reinsert the battery while holding the button for 5 seconds, then release. The LED will flash to confirm reset.

What triggers a tamper alarm on the FGBHS-213?

Any physical removal of the sensor from its mounting bracket or opening the casing triggers a tamper alarm, which is reported to the Z-Wave hub.

Does the sensor measure humidity?

No, the FGBHS-213 measures motion, temperature, and light intensity only. It does not include a humidity sensor.

How often does the sensor report temperature?

By default, temperature is reported every 10 minutes or when the value changes by more than 0.5°C. This can be adjusted via Z-Wave configuration parameters.

Can I use the sensor with a non-Z-Wave system?

No, the FGBHS-213 exclusively communicates via Z-Wave protocol. It requires a Z-Wave compatible hub or USB dongle.

What is the maximum distance from the hub?

The indoor range is up to 50 meters in line-of-sight. Walls and obstacles can reduce the range. Use Z-Wave repeaters if needed.

How do I clean the sensor?

Wipe the exterior with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use water, alcohol, or chemical cleaners. Ensure the battery compartment stays dry.

WARNING!

Danger of electro- cution, take precau- tions to avoid electric shock!

Malfunction detection:

The Single Switch detects some malfunctions and reports them to your iOS device.

Every malfunction is sent using Status Fault with code assigned to every event:

1 - overheat - device detected excessive heat and will turn off
2 - overload - device detected excessive electrical current and will turn off
3 - overheating and overload - device detected excessive heat and excessive electrical current, device will turn off
4 – relay contacts sticked - control over device relays is lost

#7: Configurable parameters

1. Type of connected switch

This parameter allows to select type of wall switch connected to the device.

Available settings: 0 – momentary switch1 – toggle switch (contact closed - ON, contact opened - OFF)2 – toggle switch (device changes status when switch changes status)

Default setting: 1 (toggle switch - synced)

2. Restore state after power failure

This parameter determines if the device will return to state prior to the power failure after power is restored.

Available settings:	0 – the device does not save the state prior to the power failure and sets „off” position1 – the device does not save the state prior to the power failure and sets „on” position2 – the device restores its state prior to the power failure
