  • Page 11: 5: Adding To Z-Wave Network

    5: Adding to Z-Wave network Adding (Inclusion) – Z-Wave device learning mode, allowing to add the device to existing Z-Wave network. 5.1: Adding manually To add the device to the Z-Wave network manually: 1. Power the device. 2. Set the main controller in (Security/non-Security Mode) add mode (see the controller’s manual).
  • Page 12: 6: Removing From Z-Wave Network

    6: Removing from Z-Wave network Removing (Exclusion) – Z-Wave device learning mode, allowing to remove the device from existing Z-Wave network. Removing also re- sults in resetting the device to factory defaults. To remove the device from the Z-Wave network: 1. Power the device. 2.

    • 3 red blinks – entering the menu (not added to a Z-Wave network) • Green – reset energy consumption memory • Magenta – start range test • Yellow – reset to factory defaults 7.3: Menu Menu allows to perform Z-Wave network actions. In order to use the menu: 1.
  • Page 15: 8: Z-Wave Range Test

    8: Z-Wave range test The device has a built in Z-Wave network main controller’s range tester. To make Z-Wave range test possible, the device must be added to the Z-Wave controller. Testing may stress the network, so it is recommended to perform the test only in special cases.
  • Page 16: 9: Activating Scenes

    9: Activating scenes The device can activate scenes in the Z-Wave controller by sending scene ID and attribute of a specific action using Central Scene Com- mand Class. In order for this functionality to work, connect monostable or bista- ble switch to the IN1-IN4 inputs and set parameters 20-23 to 3, 4 or 5 (depending on type of switch).
