Question 12

I bought this motion sensor and tried without success to include to my new smartthings hub v2 (UK version). Smartthings support advised me to confirm that the motion sensor is also a UK version (not a US one), as apparently the frequencies are different... Can you please confirm that this sensor works with the UK version of smartthings hub? View answers

Question 13

Hi Folks. Is it feasible to use this sensor to control your central heating. If I used a fibaro relay to control the boiler could the temperature sensor be used as a thermostat to set or monitor the temperature or would I need to buy a dedicated Zwave thermostat? Any advice would be greatly appreciated. View answer

Question 14

When you add a Z-Wave network the sensor FGMS-001 (controller Razbery) in the settings is displayed only temperature and illumination. No tamper and motion sensor. Accordingly, they are not in applications. Removed from the network, he added, the problem is not resolved. What to do?

Question 20

Can these be placed in an unfinished loft/attic? Some smoke detectors specifically state not to place them in an unfinished attic (e.g. Nest Protect) due to the large temp changes etc. Could not find anything specific re. these so thought I would pose the question here. Thanks chaps! View answers

Question 48

I used these in the past with LED power supplies but unfortunately even though the static current was under 1 amp, after a while the power supply inrush current would weld the relay contacts closed. I put a thermistor in-line with the load to limit the inrush and Qubino said they were aware of this and working on a solution. Does anyone know if this problem has been fixed?

Question 49

Normally when I think about DIN rails, I think about the 2 pole fuse/breakers in my house consumer unit. Where do these fit in ? Do they go in the same unit, next to the breaker for say the lighting ring/circuit I want to control/dim? Or do you recommend they go into a different unit - away from the main breakers etc?
