ZSE40 - ZWave |
{% include base.html %}
This describes the Z-Wave device ZSE40, manufactured by Vision Security with the thing type UID of vision_zse40_00_000.
The device is in the category of Motion Detector, defining Motion sensors/detectors.
The ZSE40 supports routing. This allows the device to communicate using other routing enabled devices as intermediate routers. This device is unable to participate in the routing of data from other devices.
The ZSE40 does not permanently listen for messages sent from the controller - it will periodically wake up automatically to check if the controller has messages to send, but will sleep most of the time to conserve battery life. Refer to the Wakeup Information section below for further information.
- 4 smart sensors in 1 compact device
- 7 levels of motion sensitivity to choose from
- 3 modes for motion / temp led indicator notifications
- Built-in tamper protection
- Low battery alerts
- Z-Wave Plus with improved 500 chip for faster and safer wireless communication
- Security enabled Z-Wave device – requires a security enabled gateway controller for full functionality
- Install the batteries and bring the 4-in-1 sensor as close to your Z-Wave gateway controller as possible
- Put your Z-Wave controller in inclusion/pairing mode
- Press and release the Z-Wave button TWICE quickly. The sensor will enter secure inclusion mode.
- A new 4-in-1 sensor should appear on your controller's device list
If you are unable to include the Z-Wave sensor to your controller, please try one of the following: -
- Bring the 4-in-1 sensor closer to your Z-Wave controller
- Press and release the Z-Wave button quickly several times once you put the controller in the inclusion mode to ensure the command has gone through
- Put your controller in the EXCLUSION mode and press and release the Z-Wave button, then try adding it to your network again
- Bring the 4-in-1 sensor as close to your Z-Wave gateway controller as possible
- Put your Z-Wave controller in exclusion/unpairing mode
- Press and release the Z-Wave button TWICE quickly
- The device should disappear from your controller's device list.
The led indicator will flash 3 times when you take the batteries out and put them back in to indicate the device has been successfully excluded. Please repeat the process following all steps carefully if the led indicator blinks only once when you reinsert the batteries.
The ZSE40 does not permanently listen for messages sent from the controller - it will periodically wake up automatically to check if the controller has messages to send, but will sleep most of the time to conserve battery life. The wakeup period can be configured in the user interface - it is advisable not to make this too short as it will impact battery life - a reasonable compromise is 1 hour.
The wakeup period does not impact the devices ability to report events or sensor data. The device can be manually woken with a button press on the device as described below - note that triggering a device to send an event is not the same as a wakeup notification, and this will not allow the controller to communicate with the device.
Use the Wake Up command to set wake-up interval for the sensor (from 10 minutes to 1 week) to report back to the controller. You can also press and release the Z-Wave button once to wake up the device manually.
The following table summarises the channels available for the ZSE40 -:
| Channel Name | Channel ID | Channel Type | Category | Item Type |

| Sensor (temperature) | sensor_temperature | sensor_temperature | Temperature | Number:Temperature |
| Motion Alarm | alarm_motion | alarm_motion | Motion | Switch |
| Battery Level | battery-level | system.battery_level | Battery | Number |
This does not appear to be used, but the original authors of this device added it and I cannot figure out how to delete an item.
Indicates if a sensor has triggered.
The sensor_binary channel is of type sensor_binary and supports the Switch item. This is a read only channel so will only be updated following state changes from the device.
The following state translation is provided for this channel to the Switch item type -:
| Value | Label |
|---|---|
| ON | Triggered |
| OFF | Untriggered |
Indicates the current light reading.
The sensor_luminance channel is of type sensor_luminance and supports the Number item. This is a read only channel so will only be updated following state changes from the device.
Indicates the current relative humidity.
The sensor_relhumidity channel is of type sensor_relhumidity and supports the Number item and is in the Humidity category. This is a read only channel so will only be updated following state changes from the device.
Indicates the current temperature.
The sensor_temperature channel is of type sensor_temperature and supports the Number:Temperature item and is in the Temperature category.
Motion PIR Sensor - Event 8 is motion; Event 3 is motion + tamper; Event 0 is clear.
Indicates if a motion alarm is triggered.
The alarm_motion channel is of type alarm_motion and supports the Switch item and is in the Motion category. This is a read only channel so will only be updated following state changes from the device.
The following state translation is provided for this channel to the Switch item type -:
| Value | Label |
|---|---|
| OFF | OK |
| ON | Alarm |
Represents the battery level as a percentage (0-100%). Bindings for things supporting battery level in a different format (e.g. 4 levels) should convert to a percentage to provide a consistent battery level reading.
The system.battery-level channel is of type system.battery-level and supports the Number item and is in the Battery category.
This channel provides the battery level as a percentage and also reflects the low battery warning state. If the battery state is in low battery warning state, this will read 0%.

The wakeup interval sets the period at which the device will listen for messages from the controller. This is required for battery devices that sleep most of the time in order to conserve battery life. The device will wake up at this interval and send a message to the controller to tell it that it can accept messages - after a few seconds, it will go back to sleep if there is no further communications.
This setting is defined in seconds. It is advisable not to set this interval too short or it could impact battery life. A period of 1 hour (3600 seconds) is suitable in most instances.
Note that this setting does not affect the devices ability to send sensor data, or notification events.
This parameter has the configuration ID wakeup_interval and is of type INTEGER.
When sleeping devices wake up, they send a notification to a listening device. Normally, this device is the network controller, and normally the controller will set this automatically to its own address. In the event that the network contains multiple controllers, it may be necessary to configure this to a node that is not the main controller. This is an advanced setting and should not be changed without a full understanding of the impact.
This parameter has the configuration ID wakeup_node and is of type INTEGER.
Association groups allow the device to send unsolicited reports to the controller, or other devices in the network. Using association groups can allow you to eliminate polling, providing instant feedback of a device state change without unnecessary network traffic.
The ZSE40 supports 1 association group.
Receive sensor updates
Association group 1 supports 5 nodes.
