ZSE43 Frequently Asked Questions
NOTE: If you don't see your Z-Wave controller on the list above, please contact us before you purchase this product.
Monitor your garage doors for the peace of mind you always wanted. Pair your sensor with the Zooz MultiRelay for a complete smart garage door solution. Always know what's happening on the main entry points to your home.
Watch for vibration on your window glass, sliding doors, and other surfaces to take action when needed. Set alerts for when you're not around so that you're quickly notified of any unusual activity.
This sensor features the highest Z-Wave security level and is backed by a 5-year manufacturer warranty which makes it a safe choice for your smart home monitoring needs.
To add the XS Tilt | Shock Sensor to your Z-Wave network:
1. Use the included triangle tool to carefully open the sensor’s cover and access the battery. Pull the tab from under the battery to activate the sensor. Don’t close the cover just yet. The LED indicator will start blinking for around 10 seconds once the
sensor is powered.
2. Bring the sensor to the location where you plan to mount it at.
3. Put your Z-Wave hub into inclusion/pairing mode.
4. Scan the QR code or enter the PIN code located inside of the battery cover if your hub supports SmartStart S2 inclusion.
5. Click the Z-Wave button on the sensor 3 TIMES QUICKLY. The LED indicator will flash quickly.
6. A new open/close and vibration sensor will appear on your controller’s device list.
After successfully including the sensor into your Z-Wave network, use the supplied adhesive tape to mount it.
If installing the sensor outdoors, please make sure to insert the sensor to the waterproof case (sold separately) and mount the case using the supplied mounting screws.
I bought two for my metal garage doors. Only issues are likely with the cold weather and some sort of interference. Sometimes they do not report the appropriate statuses in Smartthings and both are eating more of the battery power than they should. My hub is not terribly far from the devices, maybe 50 feet, plus a couple of powered z-wave devices a little closer. Hopefully this will improve when I install a z-wave light switch in the garage to bring a powered z-wave device in close proximity to the sensors. However, it seems these are not truly "long-distance" devices considering the natural interference with a metal garage door, unless you want to replace the batteries every month. They otherwise work most of the time.
Thank ou for your feedback! While the ZSE43 sensor supports Z-Wave Long Range, SmartThings does not. Therefore, you have the standard Z-Wave mesh range since the hub does not support long range functionality. Regarding the battery, you will see lower reported battery levels if you lack repeating mesh devices, as the sensor has to utilize more power to report to the hub.
Additionally, while CR2032 batteries can technically operate down to -22F, cold temperatures reduce ion mobility, increasing the batteries' internal resistance and dropping the output voltage. No energy storage is lost, it's just that the energy doesn't get to the device, it dissipates internally. So in cold weather it may stop responding, but once it warms up, it should still operate and respond. The sensor needs a certain amount of voltage from the battery to report, and when that energy is dissipated due to the cold, you get a loss of function until the battery is warmed.
Products work well and support is very responsive.

Ordered this to give my Hubitat system a way to read my garage door open / closed status as part of the workaround I am doing for a MyQ garage opener. Very simple install and this thing is small so you barely notice that it is there. The only issue I have noticed is that there are times the sensor does not change status meaning sometimes the door opens and it does not read that it has and sometimes after closing it still reads open. This does not happen often and usually just cycling thr garage door will correct it. Perhaps this may be resolved in future firmware updates. For now it is a simple solution as part of a way for me to solve a more complicated problem.
Attached sensor to garage door with the included 2-sided tape. No trouble adding it to Home Assistant network. Configured it to turn a lamp on when the garage door is opened, and turn lamp off when closed. Works reliably after a bit of tuning to incorporate sensor is in opened/closed status for 2-3 seconds. Sustains a decent signal (~40 kbit/s, 2-hops) with an extender. Haven't had it long enough to evaluate battery life (CR2032), but I hope it lasts a year or so assuming usage 2-3x/day.
