Z-Wave Fibaro Double Switch 2 Q&A

Question 1

Are the contacts in this model 'dry'? I want to use the module to momentarily connect a separate 12VDC circuit. (Mimicking a make/break switch.)Already have many FGS211/FGS221 modules which are dry. But want to make sure there is no change of internal circuitry for this module. View answer

Question 3

Hi, I've recently purchased one of these devices and installed it on my veraplus. Its created the 'Double Switch 2', Q1 Load, and Q2 Load. On the double switch device, its got the status: Failed at: Setting special association. The 2 load switches appear to work ok. Any ideas how to resolve? Thanks View answer

Question 4

Would this work locally "out of the box" without connecting to a central z-wave controller? I understand remote commands require a controller but would a hardwired momentary switch be able to turn on the load immediately after wiring as well? View answer

Question 5

Just read the English installation instructions for the Fibaro FGS 223. They state "The device is designed for installation in a wall switch box of depth not less than 600mm." I'm not sure you can get a back box of that depth in the UK. Does this mean we can't use the device in a standard UK box? View answer

Question 6

Hi, I have box with 3 switches controlling 3 lights (one for each). Is it possible to install this module to control one light with S1 and the other 2 lights with S2? the idea is that the controller will open/close the 2 lights together while manually using the physical switches I will still have separate control. Thanks. View answers

Question 8

Has anybody seen an issue where the Q outputs don't follow the S inputs? I have to toggle the state of the input switch a few times to get it to sync up. The input switch is the microswitch on my Heating Control Valve. View answer

Question 11

I have a Homeseer setup and have bought the Fibrao FGS 223. I have managed to include it but want to change the default toggle to momentary switch as that's what I have elsewhere [legacy X10]. I tried Setting Parameter 20 to 0 in homseer z-wave node but it just says error and dosent change. Any help please View answer

Question 12

Hi, I want to use this to control a security light which doesn't have a switch. But it needs S1 to be toggled 3 times for inclusion. Is there anyway to include without this e.g. button B? View answers

Question 13

Hi all, I have installed a couple of these (fgs223) on a 2 way switch. One is an on off switch and the other is a dimmer. I've put the switches behind the on off switch. That bit works well but now the separate dimmer won't dim it only switches on and off. Any suggestions? View answers

Question 15

What's the difference between this model (FIBEFGS-223) and the FIBEFGS-222? One is described as a switch and the other as a relay, but otherwise seem identical. Does it make any difference to what it can do? I want to use them behind existing light switches to control lighting circuits - does it make any difference which I use? Thanks! View answers

Question 18

Hi - when wired this into a double switch and then included this with a Vera Plus controller there were 3 devices created - the master and 2x appliance modules. In Vera only using the master switch has an affect and it only controls one of the switches. How do I include this so that both switches are controlled? View answer

Question 20

I want to use a Fibaro relay to swicth an immersion heater on and off. The load is switched using a double pole relay. Can I simply connect the Fibaro output across the relay energising contacts, or will you need a resistor in series to reduce the current? View answer

Question 22

Is this device suitable for switching 230V LED lights, or would it be better to use the double relay switch instead? Since it doesn't have dry contacts, I'm wondering if the LEDs may flicker while switched off (as is the case for the dimmer module). View answers
