LOZ-5S1-W Wireless Outlet Switch
Specifications and Supported Fixtures
This Control4® Wireless Outlet Switch plugs into a standard, earth-grounded (3-prong)
electrical wall outlet and communicates with the Control4 system using a wireless
ZigBee (802.15.4) connection through its built-in antenna.
Use the Wireless Outlet Switch to control a wide variety of electrical devices. The
Wireless Outlet Switch can also sense the power state of the devices attached to it (On
or Off).
The Control4 Wireless Outlet Switch has two (2) outlets. You can configure these outlets
independently for different uses, including:
•
Controlling a plugged-in audio/video (A/V) component (such as a
DVD player or VCR) or other electrical equipment controlled by IR.
•
Controlling power to a plugged-in relay device (such as a pump) or
other household appliances.
•
Switching a plugged-in florescent lamp On or Off.
The Wireless Outlet Switch features include:
•
Two (2) individually controllable
120 VAC electrical outlets.
•
Two (2) multi-color LEDs to indi-
cate outlet activity and system
feedback.
•
An external button for initial set
up of the Wireless Outlet Switch,
including identifying the device
on the Control4 system and for
Power Learning for power sensing.

Install and Configure a Wireless Outlet Switch
The Wireless Outlet Switch provides a way for a standard AC-powered device to be
controlled as a custom Control4 device. The following steps guide you through the
Wireless Outlet Switch setup. To complete the configuration, you must have access to
the Composer project and the installed Control4 Controller.
To install and configure a Wireless Outlet Switch:
1
Choose a location where the ZigBee wireless communication will be
most efficient: (1) place closely enough to receive a strong signal, and
(2) the switch should not be placed too close to devices that cause
interference, such as a 2.4 GHz portable phone.
2
Plug the Wireless Outlet Switch into a power outlet.
3
Plug one (1) or two (2) devices into an outlet provided
on the Wireless Outlet Switch.
4
In the Composer software, add and configure the
Wireless Outlet switch and the device(s) you plugged into the Wireless
Outlet Switch. Specify for each outlet how you intend to use the outlet,
such as for control of A/V equipment, for power sensing, or for power
control of relay devices. For detailed instructions, refer to the Composer
Help topic "Configure a Wireless Outlet Switch."
5
If you are using the Wireless Outlet Switch for power-sensing (such as
to control an AV component), you need to perform Power Learning. See
the next section, "Perform Power Learning" for instructions.
Perform Power Learning
To enable use of the power-sensing features, configure your Wireless Outlet Switch to
read the power state of the devices that you plug into it.
1
Follow the steps to "Install and Configure a Wireless Outlet Switch".
2
Turn Off the device plugged into the Wireless Outlet Switch.
3
Push and hold the button on the top panel of the Wireless Outlet Switch
until the two (2) LEDs toggle Orange On/Off, alternating back and forth.
4
Choose an outlet to configure (Outlet 1 or 2) by releasing the button
when the LED that corresponds to that outlet number lights up. For
example, if a device is plugged into Outlet 1, then release the button
when LED 1 lights up. Upon doing so, the LED you chose flashes
orange, indicating that the Wireless Outlet Switch is learning a steady
state of the device (such as On or Off). When the LED turns solid
orange, the Wireless Outlet Switch has learned the steady state, but
has not yet determined whether the state is On or Off.
