INTRODUCTION
Leviton's Decora
®
Z-Wave
®
control components are designed to
communicate with each other via Radio Frequency (RF) to provide remote
®
control of your lighting. In a Z-Wave
network, each device is designed
to act as a router. These routers will re-transmit the RF signal from one
device to another until the intended device is reached. This ensures
that the signal is received by its intended device by routing the signal
around obstacles and radio dead spots. The Scene Capable Electronic
Receptacle is compatible with most Z-Wave
®
enabled networks, from
different manufacturers and can also be used with other devices displaying
the Z-Wave
®
logo.
WARNING:
TO AVOID FIRE, PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH DO NOT
USE the remote for the control of high power heating appliances such
as portable heaters. Remember to exercise good common sense when
using the Timer features of your Remote – especially when scheduling
unattended devices. There can be some unexpected consequences if
not used with care. For example, an empty coffee pot can be remotely
turned on. If that should happen, your coffee pot could be damaged from
overheating. If an electric heater is turned on by remote control while
clothing is draped over it, a fire could result. DO NOT USE the remote for
the control of high power heating appliances such as portable heaters.
