7) To update the Controller's firmware via over-the-air updating capabilities (OTA):  Should the software in the Controller become corrupted or in 

the event a newer software version is available, the Controller can be reprogrammed using its Z-Wave radio and a "USB Update Dongle" (p/n 

16087 available in future release) available from your local distributor or the Kichler Technical Support Team at 888-659-8809. 

1.

 

To update, press: 

Home> System>OTA Update. 

Then press 

Enter.  

Note and record the Z-Wave ID # assigned to the device. 

2.

 

On the update software App., select the 

update node

 option and run the process.   

3.

 

This process can take several minutes to complete.  Do not remove power from either device during this time. 

4.

 

When the update is complete, the display will flash and the Controller will restart to the Kichler logo screen.     

 

8) To review the programmed Sunrise and Sunset times for the current date: 

1.

 

Press: 

Home> System>Sunrise/Sunset.

  Then press 

Enter.  

The display will show the time that any Sunrise or Sunset programmed 

schedules will be triggered.  This will be determined by the date and geographical location that the Controller is currently set to. 

 

9) To review the information about the current software version installed on the Controller: 

1.

 

Press: 

Home> System>About.

  Then press 

Enter.  

The display will show information about the Controller software including the current 

revision.  The software version should be noted and provided to the Kichler Technical Support Team when calling for assistance 

programming or trouble-shooting the Controller.  

 

 

Kichler Design Pro LED Controller – Network settings and programming 

The Kichler Design Pro LED Controller has features that allow RF (radio frequency) communication with other Controllers and accessories using 

Z-Wave communication protocol.  The Kichler Design Pro LED Controller is compatible with a selection of Kichler accessories as well as other Z-

wave devices.  A Z-Wave network can contain up to 255 devices.  Instructions on the operation and settings for these Features are explained in 

the following section.  The instructions provided here should be used in conjunction with any instructions provided with the accessory or device.   

 

1) To create or expand a Z-Wave Network by Adding another Controller: 

1.

 

When a network of two or more Controllers is created, the first Controller (the one doing the adding) will become the Master and all 

other Controllers (the ones being added) will become Subservient Controllers.  A maximum of 4 total controllers (One master and up to 

3 subservient) can be on one network.  Certain features such as time, date, and geographical location will be controlled by the Master 

Controller and therefore are disabled on the Subservient Controller(s) once the network is created.  For larger properties where more 

than 4 Controllers would be required, multiple Z-Wave networks can be established. 

2.

 

On the Controller intended to be the Master press: 

Home>Network>Add Device.  

Then press 

Enter.

 

3.

 

On the Controller intended to be the subservient press: 

Home>Network>Join Network.  

Then press 

Enter.

  

4.

 

Both Controllers will display a message saying "Executing…" and then "Process complete".  The Master Controller will also display the 

Z-Wave device ID of the newly added Controller. 

5.

 

Repeat steps 2-4 for any additional Controllers to be added to the Network. 

6.

 

For future network features, it is important to note and record the order in which Controllers and other devices are added to the network.  

 

2) To create or expand a network by adding a device such as a remote, motion sensor, range extender or other Z-Wave device (for Kichler Design 

Pro Remote, Kichler Design Pro Range Extender and Kichler Design Pro Motion Sensor (future release) refer to the "Adding Kichler Accessories 

to the Z-Wave Network" section on page 11 for additional programming capabilities): 

1.

 

On the Controller press: 

Home>Network>Add Device.  

Then press 

Enter.

 

2.

 

The Controller will display a message saying "Executing…" 

3.

 

Within 30 seconds of completing step 1, follow the instructions for  the device to initiate the "Join" command.  (Some devices may call 

this the "Learn" or "Discover" or simply "Z-Wave button") 

4.

 

If the device was successfully added, the Controller will display a message saying "Process complete" along with the Z-Wave device ID.  

5.

 

If the device was not successfully added, the Controller will display a message saying "Fault Occurred". 

6.

 

Repeat steps 1-5 for any additional devices to be added to the Network, noting and recording the order in which the devices are added 

to the network. Device ID's can be recorded on the Zone Location label on the inside cover. 

 

3) To remove a Controller from a Z-Wave network: 

1.

 

On the Master Controller press: 

Home>Network>Remove Device.  

Then press 

Enter.

 

2.

 

On the Controller to be removed press: 

Home>Network>Leave Network.  

Then press 

Enter.

 

3.

 

The Controllers will display a message saying "Executing…" and then "Process complete" and the Controller will no longer be 

associated with the Z-Wave network.
