{% include base.html %}
This describes the Z-Wave device AMZ Solar, manufactured by Fakro with the thing type UID of fakro_amzsolar_00_000.
The device is in the category of Blinds, defining Roller shutters, window blinds, etc..
The AMZ Solar 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 AMZ Z-Wave Solar Awning Blind is intended for installation in Fakro roof windows and is adapted to cooperation with elements of wireless remote control system offered by FAKRO and other manufacturers offering products with Z-Wave logo. The awning blind is equipped with a two-way radio communication module. For communication, Z-Wave utilizes radio wave frequency of 868,42 MHz.
Start the INCLUDE procedure by means of the controller of the existing network and then press the “Programming” button on the awning blind being added to the network.
Put your controller into exclusion mode, then press the programming button on the awning blind for longer than 1 sec.
The following table summarises the channels available for the AMZ Solar -:
| Channel Name | Channel ID | Channel Type | Category | Item Type |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Switch | switch_binary | switch_binary | Switch | Switch |
| Blinds Control | blinds_control | blinds_control | Blinds | Rollershutter |
| Battery Level | battery-level | system.battery_level | Battery | Number |
Switch the power on and off.
The switch_binary channel is of type switch_binary and supports the Switch item and is in the Switch category.
Provides start / stop control of blinds.
The blinds_control channel is of type blinds_control and supports the Rollershutter item and is in the Blinds category.
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 following table provides a summary of the 6 configuration parameters available in the AMZ Solar. Detailed information on each parameter can be found in the sections below.

The following option values may be configured -:
| Value | Description |
|---|---|
| 0 | Exclude from All On and All Off groups |
| 1 | Include in All On group |
| 2 | Include in All Off group |
| 255 | Include in All On and All Off groups |
This parameter has the configuration ID switchall_mode 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 AMZ Solar supports 4 association groups.
The Lifeline association group reports device status to a hub and is not designed to control other devices directly. When using the Lineline group with a hub, in most cases, only the lifeline group will need to be configured and normally the hub will perform this automatically during the device initialisation.
Association group 1 supports 1 node.
Association group 2 supports 5 nodes.
Association group 3 supports 5 nodes.
Association group 4 supports 5 nodes.
