The lamp module is one device of a Z-Wave control system and is 
designed to work with all other Z-Wave enabled devices in a home 
control network. It will also act as a wireless repeater to ensure 
that commands intended for another device in the network are 
received, thereby extending the range of the wireless controller. Z-
Wave devices of other types can be added to the system and will 
act as range extenders if they support this function of repeating 
the signal received to other nodes in the system. 

Note: 

This document assumes you have a remote control to enroll 

the unit into your system. This document does not include 
instructions on how to use an optional web portal to enroll the 
unit. If you have a web-enabled system, contact GE Security. 

Key features 

• 

One Z-wave controlled AC outlet for standard incandescent 
lighting. 

• 

Remote on/off and brightness control via the Z-Wave remote 
control.    

• 

Manual on/off and brightness control with the module 
pushbutton. 

• 

Load-sensing that turns the light on if the switch on the 
connected light is used instead of the remote control or 
module pushbutton. 

 

• 

One always-on pass-through AC outlet. 

• 

Space efficient design does not block the lower outlet when 
plugged in to the upper outlet of a duplex wall receptacle (this 
assumes that the duplex receptacle is mounted with the 
ground pin down). Plugs and cords for connected devices 
route to the side allowing close placement of furniture. 

• 

Grounded 3-wire power connection for safety. 

Note: 

There are no user serviceable ports in this unit. 

To reduce the risk of electric shock, this product has a grounding 
type plug that has a third (grounding) pin. This plug will only fit into 
a grounding type power outlet.  

Caution: 

If the plug does not fit into the outlet, contact a qualified 

electrician to install the proper outlet. Do not change the plug in 
any way. 

Installation 

The incandescent lighting plugged into the Z-Wave controlled 
outlet on this module must not exceed 300 watts. Do not use this 
unit with fluorescent lighting. Plugging a non-resistive load such 
as fluorescent lighting or a device with a motor into the Z-Wave 
controlled outlet may result in damage to the lamp module and 
will void the warranty. 

WARNING: 

Due to risk of fire, electrical shock and burns, exercise 

extreme caution when using Z-Wave devices to control 
appliances. Z-Wave connected devices should always be 
unplugged before performing any service or maintenance of the 
devices. Operation of the Z-Wave device may be in a different 
room than the controlled appliance, also an unintentional 
activation may occur if the wrong button on the remote is 
pressed. Z-Wave devices may automatically be powered on due to 
timed event programming. Depending upon the appliance, these 
unattended or unintentional operations could possibly result in a 
hazardous condition. We recommend the following installation 
guidelines. 

Installation guidelines 

• 

Assign Z-Wave controlled appliances to device numbers 10 to 
18 on the remote control. The likelihood of unintentionally 
turning on the appliance will be reduced significantly because 
the Shift button will need to be pressed before pressing 
device numbers 10 to 18. 

• 

Z-Wave devices controlling appliances should be removed 
from the  “All” control setting. Refer to the documentation 
provided with the remote control. 

• 

Do not include Z-Wave devices in groups or scenes if they 
control appliances. 

• 

Do not use Z-Wave devices to control electric heaters or any 
other appliances, which may present a hazardous condition 
due to unattended, unintentional, or automatic power on 
control.
