Short Description

If the SW (SW1) is configured as a switch (default), each toggle of the switch will change the output O (O1) state to the opposite state — on, off, on, etc. If the SW (SW1) is configured as a push-button in the Device settings, each press of the push-button will change the output O (O1) state to the opposite state — on, off, on, etc.

Switch Connected to Input Terminal SW (SW1)

If the SW (SW1) is configured as a switch (default), each toggle of the switch will change the output O (O1) state to the opposite state — on, off, on, etc.

  • Change switch position once: Change the state of the output O (O1) to the opposite state and send the command to associated devices in groups 2 and 3 (see Z-Wave Association).

Switch-Memory Connected to Input Terminal SW (SW1)

If the SW (SW1) is configured as a switch-memory:

  • Switching to Close switch-memory contact: Change the output state O (O1) to the On state and send a command to associated devices in groups 2 and 3 (see Z-Wave Association).
  • Switching to Open switch-memory contact: Change the output state O (O1) to the Off state and send a command to associated devices in groups 2 and 3 (see Z-Wave Association).

Push-Button Connected to Input Terminal SW (SW1)

If the SW (SW1) is configured as a push-button in the Device settings, each press of the push-button changes the output state O (O1) to the opposite — ON, OFF, ON, etc.

  • 1x click: Change the state of the output O (O1) to the opposite one and send a command to associated devices in groups 2 and 3 (see Z-Wave Association).
  • 2x click: If the delay between the first and second click is less than 500ms, it is interpreted as a double click. Send a command to associated devices (dimmers, shutters, etc.) in groups 2 and 3 (see Z-Wave Association).
  • Hold: Send a command to associated devices in group 3 (see Z-Wave Association).
  • Release: Send a command to associated devices in group 3 (see Z-Wave Association).

Main Applications

  • Residential
  • MDU (Multi Dwelling Units – apartments, condominiums, hotels, etc.)
  • Light commercial (small office buildings, small retail/restaurant/gas station, etc.)
  • Government/municipal
  • University/college

Integrations

Shelly Qubino Wave devices are developed on the world's leading technology for smart homes – Z-Wave. This means Shelly Qubino Wave works with all certified gateways supporting the Z-Wave communication protocol.

About Z-Wave®

Adding the Device to a Z-Wave® Network (Inclusion)

Note! All device outputs (O, O1, O2, etc.) will briefly turn on/off if the device is successfully added/removed.

Note! For Security 2 (S2) inclusion, a dialog will prompt you to enter the 5-digit PIN code printed on the Z-Wave® DSK label on the device and in the packaging.
IMPORTANT: Do not lose the PIN code.

SmartStart Inclusion

SmartStart-enabled products can be added by scanning the Z-Wave® QR code on the device using a gateway with SmartStart support. No further action needed — automatic addition within 10 minutes of powering on.

  1. Scan the QR code on the device label via the gateway app and add the DSK to the provisioning list.
  2. Connect the device to power.
  3. Check if the blue LED is blinking in Mode 1 → indicates not added.
  4. Addition starts automatically within seconds after power-up.
  5. Blue LED blinks in Mode 2 during inclusion.
  6. Green LED blinks in Mode 1 upon successful addition.

Adding with S Button

  1. Connect device to power.
  2. Confirm blue LED blinks in Mode 1 → not added.
  3. Enable add/remove mode on the gateway.
  4. Press and hold S button until LED turns solid blue (entering Setting mode).
  5. Release quickly, then press and hold (>2s) until blue LED blinks in Mode 3 → Learn mode starts.
  6. Blue LED blinks in Mode 2 during addition.
  7. Green LED blinks in Mode 1 if successful.

Note: Setting mode has a 10-second timeout before returning to Normal mode.

Adding with a Switch/Push-Button

  1. Connect device to power.
  2. Confirm blue LED blinks in Mode 1 → not added.
  3. Enable add/remove mode on the gateway.
  4. Toggle the switch/push-button connected to any SW terminal (SW, SW1, etc.) 3 times within 3 seconds → enters Learn mode.
  5. Blue LED blinks in Mode 2 during addition.
  6. Green LED blinks in Mode 1 upon success.

Learn mode: A state allowing the device to receive network information from the gateway.


Removing the Device from a Z-Wave® Network (Exclusion)

Note: Removal does not erase custom configurations.

Note! All device outputs will briefly turn on/off during removal.

Removing with S Button

  1. Connect device to power.
  2. Confirm green LED blinks in Mode 1 → added.
  3. Enable add/remove mode on the gateway.
  4. Press and hold S button until LED turns solid blue.
  5. Release quickly, then press and hold (>2s) until blue LED blinks in Mode 3 → LEARN MODE starts.
  6. Blue LED blinks in Mode 2 during removal.
  7. Blue LED blinks in Mode 1 upon successful removal.

Note: Setting mode has a 10-second timeout.

Removing with Switch/Push-Button

  1. Connect device to power.
  2. Confirm green LED blinks in Mode 1 → added.
  3. Enable add/remove mode on the gateway.
  4. Toggle the switch/push-button 3 times within 3 seconds → enters LEARN MODE.
  5. Blue LED blinks in Mode 2 during removal.
  6. Blue LED blinks in Mode 1 upon success.

Factory Reset

General

After factory reset, all custom parameters (kWh, associations, routings, etc.) revert to default. HOME ID and NODE ID are deleted. Use only when the gateway is missing or inoperable.

With S Button

Note: Can be done anytime.

  1. Press and hold S button until LED turns solid blue (enter Setting mode).
  2. Press S button repeatedly until LED turns solid red.
  3. Hold S button (>2s) until red LED starts blinking in Mode 3 → factory reset begins.
  4. During reset: LED turns solid green (~1s), then blue and red blink in Mode 3 (~2s).
  5. Blue LED blinks in Mode 1 if successful.

With Switch/Push-Button

Note: Only possible within the first minute after power-up.

  1. Connect device to power.
  2. Toggle the switch/push-button 5 times within 3 seconds → triggers reset.
  3. During reset: LED turns solid green (~1s), then blue and red blink in Mode 3 (~2s).
  4. Blue LED blinks in Mode 1 if successful.

Remotely via Parameter

Factory reset can be triggered remotely by setting Parameter No. 120 to 1.


Z-Wave® Security and Device Specific Key (DSK)

The device supports Security 2 (S2) using Strong AES-128 encryption — making Z-Wave® the most secure IoT platform.

  • Authenticated Control
    • Out-of-band DSK for inclusion
    • Compatible with most implementations

The device supports S2 Authenticated, Unauthenticated, and Unsecure inclusion.

Note: When adding via S2-enabled gateway, the 5-digit PIN from the DSK label is required. The DSK label is on the side of the device and inside the packaging. Do not remove it. Use the backup copy.

DSK Example

The first five digits are highlighted/underlined for easy identification. The DSK is also represented via QR code.

Obfuscation: Joining nodes obfuscate their public key by setting bytes 1–2 to zero (0x00) before RF transfer.

DSK Usage: May be used for out-of-band (OOB) authentication. The gateway can scan the QR code to match the obfuscated public key received via RF.
