Setting Up Your Network NOTE: The battery pack is initially unplugged to preserve battery life. Remove the battery cover and plug in the battery. Replace the battery cover. The Hand-Held must have its battery installed and be properly charged before being used. Place the remote in the Base.
Setting Up Your Network Creating the Network Use this procedure to create the network of your InTouch devices. If you “include” ALL the devices in your network before you create scenes, your network will operate smoother, more responsively, and with maximum efficiency. You need the Hand-Held (Model CA5500R) with Base (Model CA5500B) to complete this procedure.
Setting Up Your Network Linking an Additional Base and Hand-Held to the Network If you have an additional Base and Hand-Held, use the following procedure to link them to the network. NOTE: The original Base and Hand-Held must already be included in the network before you can proceed. Place the new Hand-Held in the new Base.
Page 15
Setting Up Your Network NOTE: On InTouch devices that have this feature, the status light will stop blinking BLUE and/or RED to indicate that the device has been added to the network. Additional Considerations: • If the device doesn’t have a button (for example, a simple on-off switch), press the rocker switch on the device.
When you’ve included each device, you’re done. Follow the same procedure to include other Z-Wave devices in the network (i.e., Intermatic HomeSettings™ devices or devices from other manufacturers). For specific information on which button to press, refer to the user guide that came with the device or contact the manufacturer.
Page 17
Setting Up Your Network Remove the Hand-Held from the Base and take it to the first device to be removed in the network. Hold the Hand-Held within a few feet of the device to be removed. Make sure the lights under the Hand-Held’s buttons are lit.
Page 19
Repeat this procedure for each device you want to remove from your network. Follow the same procedure to remove other Z-Wave devices in the network (i.e., Intermatic HomeSettings devices or devices from other manufacturers). For specific information on which button to press, refer to the user guide that came with the device or contact the manufacturer.
