Nortek Security & Control 500 Series Manual

NOTE: This unit must be added to the Network only where it will be permanently installed. The proper operation of this node in the mesh
network is dependent on it knowing its location with respect to other nodes. You cannot "test bench" configure this unit, then install.
PS15EMZ5-1 PLUG-IN MODULE
The GoControl™ family of Z-Wave® certified wireless lighting products (smart LED
fixtures, bulbs, switches, dimmers, outlets, plug-in modules) Control Products (thermostats,
irrigation controller and garage door controller)and Sensors (flood, leak, alert sounder,
motion sensor and door/window sensor) bring a new level of intelligent wireless Home
Automation capability to commercial and residential environments.
The Z-Wave wireless protocol is an international wireless standard for remote home
automation, security and other applications. This product can be included and operated in
any Z-Wave network with other Z-Wave certified devices from other manufacturers and/or
other applications. All non-battery operated nodes within the network will act as repeaters
regardless of vendor to increase reliability of the network.
GoControl Z-Wave products are easy to install, are Z-Wave certified, and allow dealers to
create an integrated wireless network with nearly limitless expansion and interoperability
with security, energy management, home entertainment, appliances, and more.
The PS15EMZ5-1 is a simple Plug & Play Home Automation device that lets you control
any lighting or small appliance while monitoring the amount of energy being used.
Bright multi-colored LEDs provide an instant indication of the energy being used while
simultaneously reporting this information to your Z-Wave hub that may be used for energy
monitoring and analysis.
Z-WAVE PLUS FEATURES
The PS15EMZ5-1 contains a Z-Wave 500 Series Module that supports Z-Wave Plus ®
features. A Z-Wave certified portable or stationary Controller can communicate with the
Z-Wave 500 Series Module.
Depending on the capability of the Controller or gateway software, the following operations
can be performed with the PS15EMZ5-1. Refer to the Controller or gateway manual for
details.
• Turn the load ON and OFF.
• Add or Remove the PS15EMZ5-1.
• Assign the PS15EMZ5-1 to a specific Group/Scene and/or to include the load as part of ALL ON or
ALL OFF system commands.
• Over-the-air firmware update by the gateway or static Controller.
• Lifeline function which automatically notifies the associated modules and the network that a
manually reset device is no longer in the network, thus, the corresponding association becomes
invalid.
• Monitors the amount of energy being used and reports the current usage to the Z-Wave controller
INSTALLATION
Adding to a network:
Refer to your Controller operating instructions to add this switch under the command of
the Wireless Controller.
1. With your Controller in Discovery or Add Mode, tap the button on the face of the outlet.
The LED will blink slowly when in ADD Mode.
2. You should see an indication on your Controller that the "device was added" to the
network and the LED will stop blinking.
3. The device will appear in the list of Switches. It should display as a switch.
If the Controller/Gateway shows the addition failed, repeat Steps 1-3.
✓ NOTE: If you have trouble adding the PS15EMZ5-1 to a group it may be that the
Home ID and Node ID were not cleared from it after testing. You must first "RESET UNIT"
to remove it from the network. Although adding it to a group includes it in the network,
removing it from a group does not remove it from the network. If removed from a group,
it functions as a repeater (only). "RESET UNIT" removes it completely from the network.
To Reset Unit (If Required):
In the event that your primary Controller is lost or otherwise inoperable, to reset the
PS15EMZ5-1 and clear all network information, follow these steps:
1. Tap the button on the face of the outlet five (5) times.
2. Press and hold the button for 15 seconds. The LED will increasingly blink faster to
indicate that a Reset is taking place.

Removing from a network:
The PS15EMZ5-1 can be removed from the network by the Controller/Gateway. Refer to
the Controller operating instructions for details.
1. Set the Controller into Removal Mode and follow its instruction to delete the
PS15EMZ5-1 from the Controller.
2. Remove the switch by tapping the button on the face of the outlet 2 times. The LED will
begin blinking slowly for 10 seconds indicating that it has been removed.
3. You should see an indication on your Controller that the "device was removed" from
the network.
BASIC OPERATION
Local Control
The button on the PS15EMZ5-1 allows the user to:
• Turn the attached load on or off.
• Execute configuration and control features.
Night Light
To act as a night light, the LED on the PS15EMZ5-1 can be configured to turn ON when
the load attached is OFF. See "CONFIGURATION" section.
Energy Monitoring
PS15EMZ5-1 reports the total accumulated Kilowatt Hours (kWh) and the instantaneous Watts
being consumed by the load.
Parameter LLength Valid Values
0
13
2 Byte
Decimal 1-255
Configuration Parameter 13 configures the rate at which the energy readings are reported. If the
maximum kWh value that can be reported is reached (21,474 kWh), then it will remain at the
maximum level until reset to 0 using the Controller software.
To reset, the total accumulated kWh used by the PS15EMZ5-1 the Z-Wave controller needs to
send a reset command at the request of the user. It will also be reset if the PS15EMZ5-1 is
excluded from the Z-Wave network.
The Watts reading provides the immediate reading of the power being consumed by the load. The
Watts reading takes several seconds to settle so wait a few seconds before reading the energy
value when the state of the switch (on / off) has changed.
✓ NOTE: If Power Monitoring, see Configuration Section below, is turned OFF the
PS15EMZ5-1 will not report any energy use.
Remote Control
The PS15EMZ5-1 will respond to BASIC and BINARY_SWITCH commands that are part of
the Z-Wave system. Refer to your Controller's instructions as to whether your Controller
can transmit those commands.
Protection Mode
The PS15EMZ5-1 supports Protection Mode that is used to disable the button on the front
of the device. This eliminates inadvertent activation of the switch. To enable Protection
Mode, press the button on the PS15EMZ-1 three times quickly. The LED will blink Purple
twice showing that Protection Mode has been enabled. When Enabled the only way to turn
ON or OFF the PS15EMZ5-1 is through the Z-Wave controller or Mobile app. If the button
on the PS15EMZ5-1 is pressed, the LED will blink Purple twice and have no impact on the
attached device. To exit Protection Mode, press the button three times.
Associations
The PS15EMZ5-1 supports one Group with one (1) Node for lifeline communication. Group
1 must be assigned the Node ID of the Controller to which unsolicited notifications from the
PS15EMZ5-1 will be sent. The Z-Wave Controller should set this Association automatically
after inclusion. You can associate up to five Z-Wave devices to Group 1.
For instructions on how to "set Lifeline Association" please refer to your Controller
instructions.
