CAUTION
This is an electrical device - please use caution when installing and
operating the motor controller. Remote control of appliances may result
in unintentional or automated activation of power.
Do not use this Z-Wave device to control electric heaters or other
appliances which produce the risk of fire, burns, or electrical shock
when unattended.
To reduce risk of overheating and possible damage to other equipment,
do not install this unit to control a receptacle; a motor-operated
appliance; a fluorescent lighting fixture; any device over 32 V DC power;
or a transformer-supplied fixture.
BEFORE YOU INSTALL
This device is intended for installation in accordance with the
National Electric Code and local regulations. It is recommen-
ded that a licensed electrician perform this installation.
1. CHECK THE LOAD: don't exceed 1.5 A for your DC motor,
DO NOT CONNECT THIS DEVICE TO 120 VAC LOADS.
2. POWER OFF: turn the circuit power off in the breaker panel
before you start. If installing in a multi-switch box with
multiple circuits, turn power off at all of the circuits.
3. CHECK THE WIRES: mark motor connections (OUT), DC
power (GND- and VDC+), and switch connections (S1 and S2).
Don't rely exclusively on your multimeter to identify the
wires!
