Important safety information
Please read this manual carefully. Failure to follow the recommendations in this manual may be dangerous or may violate the law. The manufacturer, importer,
distributor and seller shall not be liable for any loss or damage resulting from failure to comply with the instructions in this manual or any other material. Use this
equipment only for its intended purpose. Follow the disposal instructions. Do not dispose of electronic equipment or batteries in a fire or near open heat sources.
What is Z-Wave?
Z-Wave is the international wireless protocol for communication in the Smart Home. This device is suited for use in the region mentioned in the Quickstart section.
Z-Wave ensures a reliable communication by reconfirming every message (two-way communication) and
every mains powered node can act as a repeater for other nodes (meshed network) in case the receiver is not
in direct wireless range of the transmitter.
This device and every other certified Z-Wave device can be used together with any other certified Z-Wave
device regardless of brand and origin as long as both are suited for the same frequency range.
If a device supports secure communication it will communicate with other devices secure as long as this
device provides the same or a higher level of security. Otherwise it will automatically turn into a lower level of
security to maintain backward compatibility.
For more information about Z-Wave technology, devices, white papers etc. please refer to www.z-wave.info.
Product Description
Aeotec Nano Dimmer is a Z-Wave Smart Dimmer specifically used to enable Z-Wave command and control (on/off/dim) of any wall switches. It can report immediate
wattage consumption or kWh energy usage over a period of time. In the event of power failure, non-volatile memory retains all programmed information relating to the
units operating status. It can connect to 2 external manual switches to control the load ON/OFF independently. Its surface has a pin socket, which can be used for
connecting to the touch panel, so you can also use the touch panel to control the Nano Dimmer. The Nano Dimmer is also a security Z-Wave plus device and supports
Over The Air (OTA) feature for the products firmware upgrade.
Prepare for Installation / Reset
Please read the user manual before installing the product.
In order to include (add) a Z-Wave device to a network it must be in factory default state. Please make sure to reset the device into factory default. You can do this
by performing an Exclusion operation as described below in the manual. Every Z-Wave controller is able to perform this operation however it is recommended to use
the primary controller of the previous network to make sure the very device is excluded properly from this network.
Reset to factory default
This device also allows to be reset without any involvement of a Z-Wave controller. This procedure should only be used when the primary controller is inoperable.
Press and hold the Action button that you can find on the product"s housing for 20 seconds and then release. This procedure should only be used when the primary
controller is missing or inoperable.
Safety Warning for Mains Powered Devices
ATTENTION: only authorized technicians under consideration of the country-specific installation guidelines/norms may do works with mains power. Prior to the
assembly of the product, the voltage network has to be switched off and ensured against re-switching.
Installation
1. Shut off the main circuit breaker of your home for safety during the installation and ensure the wires are not short circuited during the installation which will cause
damage to the Nano Dimmer
2. Preparing connection wires 14 AWG or 12 AWG power wires for Input/Output. 18 AWG copper wires for external manual switch. Use the wire stripper cut the
metallic part of the connection wire and make sure the length of the metallic part is about 5mm.
Note: All connection wires need to be flexible cable
