WADWAZ-1

Radio Frequency Controlled

Wireless Door / Window Sensor

NOTE: 

This unit must be “included in the Network” 

only where it will be permanently installed. 

The proper operation of this node in the 

mesh network is dependent on it knowing its location with respect to other nodes. You cannot “test bench” confi gure this module, then install.

WADWAZ-1 WIRELESS DOOR / WINDOW SENSOR

Linear’s family of Z-Wave™ certifi ed wireless lighting controls (switches, 
dimmers, outlets and plug-in modules) and Security devices (alert sounder, 
passive infrared sensor and door/window transmitter) brings a new level of 
intelligent wireless capability to commercial and residential environments.

The Z-Wave wireless protocol is an international wireless standard for remote 
home automation, security and other applications. Embedded in each device, 
the Z-Wave smart chip enables two-way RF communication among hundreds 
of Z-Wave enabled devices, allowing products and services from multiple 
manufacturers to work seamlessly.

Linear Z-Wave products are easy to install, and allow dealers to create an 
integrated wireless network with nearly limitless expansion and interoperability 
with security and health monitoring systems, energy management, home 
entertainment, appliances, and more.

The WADWAZ-1 sensor monitors a door or window and sends Z-Wave 
signals when the door is opened or closed. As part of a Z-Wave network, 
the WADWAZ-1 will also act as a wireless repeater to insure that commands 
intended for another device in the network are received. This is useful when 
the device would otherwise be out of the radio range of the wireless controller.

For indoor use only. Retain instructions for future use.

INSTALLATION

If installing an entire Z-Wave system for the fi rst time, refer to the installation 
guide of the Z-Wave Interface Controller before installing the door/window 
sensor.

For “Inclusion” to (adding to) a network: 

Refer to your Controller operating instructions to add this module under the 
command of the Wireless Controller.

1. 

Unscrew the screw fastening the rear cover and slide the rear cover down.

2. 

Insert a CR123A battery into the battery compartment and LED will start to fl ash 
slowly, which means the sensor has not yet performed “inclusion” with the Controller.

3. 

Prepare the Controller to include a unit to the network by adding it to a group (method 
of adding a node to the network). Refer to the Controller instructions.

4. 

If your Controller supports Network Wide Inclusion (NWI) locate the WADWAZ-1 near 
the proposed installation location. 

If not skip to Step 6.

5. 

With your Controller in Inclusion mode, you should see an indication on your 
Controller that the “device was included” in the network. It should display binary 
switch / Linear. The LED will stop blinking. 

Skip to Step 9.

If the LED does not stop blinking, relocate the WADWAZ-1 to within 100 feet (line of 
sight) of a Z-Wave device or your hub and repeat Step 5. If the LED continues to blink, 
your Controller does not support NWI and continue with Step 6.

6. 

Place the WADWAZ-1 within 3 feet of the Controller.

7. 

With your Controller in Inclusion mode, depress the Program switch for 1 second 
then release.

8. 

You should see an indication on your Controller that the “device was included” in the 
network. It should display binary switch / Linear. The LED will stop blinking.

9. 

The device will appear in the list of Switches.

 

NOTE: 

If you have trouble adding the WADWAZ-1 to a group it may be that the Home 

ID and Node ID were not cleared from it after testing. You must fi rst “RESET UNIT” 
with your Controller to remove it from the network. Although adding it to a group 
includes it in the network, removing it from a group does not remove it from the 
network. If removed from a group, it functions as a repeater (only). “RESET UNIT” 
removes it completely from the network.

For “Association” with another device: 

The door/window sensor supports one association group with up to 5 nodes.

1. 

Set up the Z-Wave™ Interface Controller into “association” mode, and following its 
instruction to associate the WADWAZ-1 with another device.

2. 

Open the door/window sensor case to “wake” the unit. In the Controller, associate the 
sensor with the other device.

3. 

Close the door/window sensor case.

For “Exclusion” from (removing from) a network: 

1. 

Set up the Z-Wave™ Interface Controller into “exclusion” mode, and following its 
instruction to delete the WADWAZ-1 from the Controller.

2. 

Press the Program switch of WADWAZ-1 for 1 second and release to be excluded. 
The LED light will fl ash continuously when the sensor is in the Exclusion condition.
