1 OverviewThe Guardian Bridge is a device that can communicate to a single valve controller over Guardian RF andto a security panel over wire, or a Z-Wave hub. This allows a security panel or Z-Wave hub to open/closethe valve controller and be alerted if a leak is detected.1.1 Key Features•GuardianRF, RelayLinkTM , Z-Wave•USB or 12V power1.2 Communication1.2.1 GuardianRFThe Guardian Bridge will be able to send the following commands to the valve controller:•Open the valve•Close the valveThe Guardian Bridge will receive the following events from the valve controller:•At least one sensor is wet•All sensors are dry•Valve opened•Valve Closed•Lowest temperature reported by any connected device1.2.2 RelayLinkTMThe Guardian Bridge will be able to send the following information over RelayLinkTM•At least one sensor is wet•All sensors are dryOR•Valve is open•Valve is closed1.2.3 Z-WaveThe Guardian Bridge will be able to send the following information over Z-Wave:•At least one sensor is wet•All sensors are dry•Valve is open•Valve is closed•Lowest Temperature reported by any connected device3

Non-visible surfaces may not betextured•Guardian logo, power, Z-Wave, and Guardian RF icons will be pad printed white3 Functional RequirementsThe Guardian Bridge translates communication from GuardianRF to either RelayLinkTM or Z-Wave.3.1 LEDsThe power and GuardianRF LEDs on the front of the Guardian Bridge will behave the same as the Guardian.The Z-Wave LED will be off when not paired to a Z-Wave hub, blinking (same pattern as WiFi light onvalve controller when hotspot is on) and on when paired to the hub.3.1.1 LED BehaviorLED Behavior Events1st LED (Power) LED is ON Bridge is powered onLED is OFF Bridge is powered off2nd LED (Z-Wave)LED is ON Bridge is included in a Z-WavenetworkLED is double-blinking Bridge is in inclusion/exclusionmodeLED is off Bridge is not included in a Z-Wave network3rd LED (GuardianRF) LED blinks Bridge has sent/received aGuardianRF transmission5
3.2 ButtonThe single button will on the back will be used to pair the Bridge with a valve controller or a Z-Wave hub.A single press will be used to pair the Bridge to a valve controller (like shaking the leak detector). A triplepress (3 presses in under 2 seconds) will put the bridge in Z-Wave inclusion mode if it has not been includedyet, or in exclusion mode if it is currently included. The button will also be used for factory reset. To factoryreset, the button will be held for 10 seconds.3.3 PowerThe Bridge will come with a plug-in 5V adapter with a micro-USB connector. The power supply will have anon-removable wire of 4-6 feet. It will be gray and include the matching Guardian velcro strap. If sourcinga gray power supply will cause delays or too much added expense, a black power supply can be used andthe Guardian velcro strap can be omitted.3.4 Guardian App and Device PairingThe Bridge can be connected to the Guardian App if the user has a valve controller. There can be only oneBridge connected to each valve controller.3.4.1 Guardian AppThe settings and information displayed to the user are TBD3.5 Firmware UpgradesThe Bridge will be capable of OTA firmware updates. The GuardianRF MCU will be updated overGuardianRF, the Z-Wave module will be updated over Z-Wave. In case an OTW firmware update is requiredduring development and testing the device will be designed in such a way that the firmware can be updatedwithout complete disassembly.3.6 GuardianRFWhen any leak sensor is triggered the valve controller will send a message over GuardianRF to the bridgethat one of the sensors is wet. Once all of the sensors are dry, the valve controller will send a message to thebridge that all sensors are dry When the Bridge receives a command to open or close the valve from Z-Waveor RelayLink™, an open or close command will be sent to the valve controller via GuardianRF.3.7 RelayLinkTMRelayLink™is an revolutionary, innovative new communication protocol developed by Elexa Consumer Prod-ucts to be faster and easier to use than current standards. Please see the RelayLink™Specification Documentfor more information4 Z-WaveWhen the Bridge receives a ‘leak detected’ message it will inform the Z-Wave hub if it is paired. It willalso inform the hub when an ‘all sensors dry’ message is received. The hub will also be able to send ‘openvalve’ and ‘close valve’ messages to the bridge to relay to the valve controller. When included in the Z-Wavenetwork, the Bridge will appear as two devices:•An On/Off Switch6
•A Leak Sensor•A temperature sensor (see §4.4.1)4.1 Z-Wave InclusionThe Bridge will enter inclusion mode when first powered on (if not already included in a Z-Wave network)and will stay in inclusion mode for 30 seconds. After 30 seconds, if the Bridge is not included, pressingthe button on the device 3 times in less than 2 seconds will put it back in inclusion mode for 30 seconds.When in inclusion mode, the Z-Wave LED will double blink. After successful inclusion the Z-Wave LED willremain solid.4.2 Z-Wave ExclusionIf the hub is in exclusion mode and the Bridge is included in the Z-Wave network, a triple press of the Bridgebutton will put the device in exclusion mode. Upon successful exclusion the Z-Wave LED will turn off.4.3 NWIThe Bridge will support NWI -Network Wide Inclusion4.4 Z-Wave Specifications4.4.1 Association Groups (AGs)Association Group Description01 LifelineThis AG sends Binary Report when valve is opened or closed,Supports Device Reset Locally. When any leak sensor is wet, thedevice will send a leak notification. When all sensors are dry, thedevice will send a ‘leak cleared’ notification.02 This AG is sent an Open/Close Basic Report03 Sensor Multilevel Report containing the temperature informationevery 60 minutes7
