Introduction

Key Features

• Supports most of the Schneider Electric Wiser wireless catalog devices (supported devices may vary by country and will evolve).

• Designed for residential and commercial installations.

• Supports a maximum of 50 direct ZigBee devices connected in the system.

Integration

• Wiser for KNX and spaceLYnk are multi-protocol logic controllers (KNX, Modbus, BACnet...).

• Adding a Hybrid Module lets you integrate ZigBee wireless devices communicating over the ZigBee 3.0 protocol.

Steps to Integrate ZigBee Devices

1. Download the Hybrid plugin from the Marketplace of your Wiser for KNX/spaceLYnk controller.

2. Pair the ZigBee devices.

3. All configuration steps are done in the plugin running in the controller. No additional software is needed.

4. Control your ZigBee devices from your KNX installation and vice versa (bidirectional communication).

5. Wiser for KNX users can control their ZigBee devices via the Wiser KNX mobile app (Android and iOS). See the user guide for the app here.

Important Notes

ZigBee devices create a mesh network, allowing communication between them.

• Mains-powered wireless devices act as routers and forward information to other wireless devices.

• Battery-powered devices do not act as routers.

Consider the following when installing your device:

• Installation environment: Houses with multiple floors, enclosures in caves or metal, and buildings with large areas may experience communication issues between ZigBee devices.

• Solutions:

  • Connect the antenna and install it outside the cabinet.

  • To extend the mesh network, add a mains-powered device in between (e.g., a Connected Socket, Smart Plug, Micromodule Relay, etc.).

External housing may be cleaned with a damp cloth if it becomes dirty; do not use any cleaning agent, especially alcohol.
