I am interested in the issue of Z-Wave, there is quite little information: https://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Z-Wave perhaps someone after the training could give their view on Z-Wave in the articles: https://www.elektroda.pl/rtvforum/forum41.html... [Read more]

Yes, of course. I can't compare with ETHM because (as you pointed out) I only transmit by outputs the states I am interested in and that is limited by the number of outputs. However, this is enough for... [Read more]

FAQ

TL;DR: FIBARO trained more than 1,000 people last year; “Participants receive certificate.” One-day, hands-on Z‑Wave/HomeKit installer course with real workshop time and system design basics. Registration is city-based across Poland. [Elektroda, gulson, post #16829631]

Why it matters: This FAQ helps electricians, integrators, and DIY pros decide if FIBARO’s certified training fits their smart‑home goals and how to prepare.

Quick Facts

What exactly is the FIBARO installer training and who is it for?

It’s a one-day, practical-and-theoretical course for installers, electricians, and building practitioners who want to deploy FIBARO smart‑home systems. Graduates receive a completion certificate and starter benefits, including materials and first‑project technical support. The curriculum covers system design, configuration, integrations, and hands‑on workshops so you leave ready to implement Z‑Wave/HomeKit deployments. [Elektroda, gulson, post #16829631]

How long is the course and what credential do I get?

The training lasts one day and ends with a certificate that entitles you to install the FIBARO system throughout Poland. You also gain access to videos, sales materials, and a one‑off start‑up purchase on favorable terms to kickstart your first projects. [Elektroda, gulson, post #16829631]

What topics are on the agenda (Z‑Wave, HomeKit, scenes, etc.)?

Expect coverage of FIBARO products, Z‑Wave and Apple HomeKit in smart homes, wireless automation details, controller capabilities, and scene creation. Workshops include interface use, configuration, associations, mobile platforms, remote access, practical installation tips, knowledge platforms, and integrations. [Elektroda, gulson, post #16829631]

Which city is best for attending the training?

Experiences vary by location. One attendee called a Kędzierzyn session a waste of time, while feedback about Katowice was positive. Evaluate trainer reputation and recent reviews before booking. “Read sentence by sentence before signing contracts.” [Elektroda, marek216, post #16830397]

How do I register for FIBARO training?

Use the official events page to select a city and date, then complete the form. How‑To:
  1. Open the FIBARO installer training events page.
  2. Choose your preferred city and available date.
  3. Submit your registration details and confirm. [Elektroda, gulson, post #16829631]

Does FIBARO integrate cleanly with Satel Integra and alarms?

You can achieve deeper integration with Satel Integra via ETHM. Many systems lack such options, leaving only output‑based states. Be aware of an edge case: FIBARO updates have crashed communication until a later patch. Plan change control and test after updates. [Elektroda, marek216, post #16851423]

How does Z‑Wave routing work in a FIBARO mesh?

Devices act as repeaters and the controller builds a network map by querying nodes. Communication follows the shortest available route to maintain optimal range. As one attendee put it, “And that is exactly what it does.” This self‑healing approach improves coverage in larger homes. [Elektroda, marek216, post #16834577]

Will the training explain Z‑Wave encryption and key exchange?

A past attendee reported the session did not provide cryptographic details like key lengths or secure key exchange methods. Expect a practical installer focus rather than deep protocol security. Prepare separate resources if you need in‑depth crypto design guidance. [Elektroda, marek216, post #16834577]

Do battery devices report low battery, and how long do they run?

Low battery states are reported to the control panel. Runtime depends on device activity and usage patterns, so plan maintenance windows for frequently triggered sensors. Keep spares on hand for busy entry sensors and multi‑function devices. [Elektroda, marek216, post #16834935]

How long do electronic radiator heads’ batteries last in practice?

One user experience: original batteries in electronic heads lasted almost two seasons, about 20 months. Branded local replacements lasted about one season, while discount‑store cells performed better. This illustrates real‑world variance and the value of monitoring battery alerts. [Elektroda, Anonymous, post #16840838]

What is the anti‑scale or “descaling” function on radiator heads?

A weekly “descaling” routine briefly drives the valve fully open to free a sticking stem. A user set a weekday and time for this maintenance action. Quote: “Descaling is done … by opening the head as much as possible.” This reduces stem blockage rather than cleaning flow paths. [Elektroda, Anonymous, post #16840838]

Are non‑FIBARO Z‑Wave devices and IP cameras guaranteed to work?

If a device or camera is not listed as compatible—or not manufactured by FIBARO—there’s no guarantee it will work. Verify support lists before purchasing, and keep a fallback plan such as using relay modules for basic on/off integration. [Elektroda, marek216, post #16834577]

Will the training answer questions about smoke detector approvals or alarm grades?

Set expectations conservatively. An attendee reported discouraging responses when asking about smoke approvals, alarm security classes, and deep integrations. Treat the course as practical system onboarding rather than a compliance deep‑dive. [Elektroda, marek216, post #16834577]

Where can I find the current training price?

Check the official registration link for up‑to‑date fees. A forum reply directed users to the provided link rather than quoting a static price, which may change over time. [Elektroda, alster1, post #16980935]

Any positive attendee experiences to consider?

Yes. One user praised Lublin sessions for a solid dose of knowledge and professional experience, and noted quick plugin‑based integration with Satel Integra in their setup. They would even retake the course to refresh skills. [Elektroda, Lukasz3232, post #16851299]

How big is FIBARO’s ecosystem and brand footprint?

FIBARO operates on six continents in more than 100 countries. Its devices cover lighting, shutters, HVAC, security, multimedia, and gardens, with Z‑Wave products and Apple HomeKit compatibility, plus integrations like Philips, Netatmo, Sonos, D‑Link, Yale, and DSC.
