ON/OFF MODULE
This plug-in ON/OFF Module is a transceiver which is a Z-Wave
TM
enabled device
and is fully compatible with any Z-Wave
TM
enabled network. Z-Wave
TM
enabled
devices displaying the Z-Wave
TM
logo can also be used with it regardless of the
manufacturer, and ours can also be used in other manufacturer’s Z-Wave
TM
enabled
networks. Remote On/Off control of the connected load is possible with other
manufacturer’s Wireless Controller. Each module is designed to act as a repeater.
Repeaters will re-transmit the RF signal to ensure that the signal is received by its
intended destination by routing the signal around obstacles and radio dead spots.
This plug-in ON/OFF Module is able to detect current wattage (5~1440W) and
overload wattage of connected non-dimmable lights or appliances. When detecting
overload state, the Module will be disabled and its On/Off button will be locked out of
which LED will flash quickly for 30 seconds. However, unplug and re-connect the
Module will reset its overload condition to normal status.
Include to or Exclude from a Z-Wave
TM
Network
In the front casing, there is an On/Off button with LED indicator which is used to carry
out inclusion, exclusion, reset or association. Toggle On/Off button between On and
Off. When first power is applied, its LED flashes on and off alternately and repeatedly
at 2-second intervals. It implies that it has not been assigned a node ID and cannot
work with Z-Wave enabled devices. Please get familiar with the terms below before
starting the operations.
Function
Description
Inclusion
Add a Z-Wave enabled device (e.g. On/Off Module) to Z-Wave network.
Exclusion
Delete a Z-Wave enabled device (e.g. On/Off Module) from the network.
Function
Description
Association
After inclusion, you have to define the relationship between devices.
Through association, device can be assigned as master/slave, and specify
which slave is going to be controlled by which master.
Reset
Restore On/Off Module to factory default.
The table below lists an operation summary of basic Z-Wave functions. Please refer
to the instructions for your Z-Wave
TM
Certificated Primary Controller to access the
setup function, and to include/exclude/associate devices. The module executes the
function of auto inclusion when…
Auto Inclusion
The function of auto inclusion will be executed as long as the module does not have
a node ID and in situations where…
1. The power is first applied.
2. The execution of exclusion/reset is successful where the stored node ID is
cleared.
Note:
Auto inclusion timeout is 4 minutes during which the node information of
explorer frame will be emitted once every 5 seconds. Unlike “inclusion” function as
shown in the table below, the execution of auto inclusion is free from pressing the
tamper switch on the unit.
