NOTE
Resetting the device is not the recommended way of removing the device from the Z-Wave network. use reset procedure only if the primary controller is missing or inoperable. Certain device removal can be achieved by the procedure of removing described in "Adding/removing the device".
After adding the Switch 2 to the network, it will be represented in the interface by two similar icons, one for each channel. Icon for second channel is hidden for Single Switch 2:
Turning the device On/OFF – On and OFF icons are used for operating the load.
The Switch 2 allows for the active power and energy consumption monitoring. Data is sent to the main Z-Wave controller, e.g. Home Center.
Measuring is carried out by the most advanced micro-controller technology, assuring maximum accuracy and precision (+/- 1% for loads greater than 5W).
Electric active power - power that energy receiver is changing into a work or a heat. The unit of active power is Watt [W].
Electric energy - energy consumed by a device through a time period. Consumers of electricity in households are billed by suppliers on the basis of active power used in given unit of time. Most commonly measured in kilowatt-hour [kWh]. One kilowatt-hour is equal to one kilowatt of power consumed over period of one hour, 1kWh = 1000Wh.
The Switch 2 require the power consumption of connected load equal to 5W or greater to correctly measure the power and energy.
NOTE
Power measurement can contain mains voltage fluctuations within +/- 10%.
The Switch 2 allows to erase stored consumption data in three ways:
The Switch 2 stores periodically (every hour) the consumption data in the device memory. Disconnecting the module from the power supply will not erase stored energy consumption data.
Association (linking devices) - direct control of other devices within the Z-Wave system network e.g. Dimmer, Relay Switch, Roller Shutter or scene (may be controlled only through a Z-Wave controller).
NOTE
Association ensures direct transfer of control commands between devices, is performed without participation of the main controller and requires associated device to be in the direct range.
1st association group – "Lifeline" reports the device status and allows for assigning single device only (main controller by default).
2nd association group – "On/Off (S1)" is assigned to switch connected to the S1 terminal (uses Basic command class).
3rd association group – "Dimmer (S1)" is assigned to switch connected to the S1 terminal (uses Switch Multilevel command class).
4th association group – "On/Off (S2)" is assigned to switch connected to the S2 terminal (uses Basic command class).
5th association group – "Dimmer (S2)" is assigned to switch connected to the S2 terminal (uses Switch Multilevel command class).
The Switch 2 in 2nd to 5th group allows to control 5 regular or multichannel devices per an association group, with the exception of "lifeline" that is reserved solely for the controller and hence only 1 node can be assigned.
It is not recommended to associate more than 10 devices in general, as the response time to control commands depends on the number of associated devices. In extreme cases, system response may be delayed.
NOTE
The Switch 2 supports the operation of multichannel devices. Multichannel devices are devices that include two or more circuits inside one physical unit.
The Switch 2 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.
Follow the below instructions to test the main controller's range:
Visual indicator pulsing green - the Switch 2 attempts to establish a direct communication with the main controller. If a direct communication attempt fails, the device will try to establish a routed communication, through other modules, which will be signalled by visual indicator pulsing yellow.
Visual indicator glowing green - the Switch 2 communicates with the main controller directly.
Visual indicator pulsing yellow - the Switch 2 tries to establish a routed communication with the main controller through other modules (repeaters).
Visual indicator glowing yellow - the Switch 2 communicates with the main controller through the other modules. After 2 seconds the device will retry to establish a direct communication with the main controller, which will be signalled with visual indicator pulsing green.
Visual indicator pulsing violet - the Switch 2 does communicate at the maximum distance of the Z-Wave network. If connection proves successful it will be confirmed with a yellow glow. It's not recommended to use the device at the range limit.
Visual indicator glowing red - the Switch 2 is not able to connect to the main controller directly or through another Z-Wave network device (repeater).
NOTE
Communication mode of the Switch 2 may switch between direct and one using routing, especially if the device is on the limit of the direct range.
The Switch 2 after detecting overheat or overcurrent will:
The Switch 2 can activate scenes in the Z-Wave controller by sending scene ID and attribute of a specific action using Central Scene Command Class.
By default scenes are not activated, set parameters 28 and 29 to enable scene activation for selected actions.
