External Switch

 

ZFM-80 provides an option to user that can add an 
external switch to control the On/Off function. ZFM-80US 
can be placed into the switch box with external wall 
switch cover. User can configure the external switch type 
through the configuration command

Configuration Command for External 

Switch

Advanced function "Conditional trigger 

for Fail Safe Installation"

ZFM-80US provides an advanced function "Conditional trigger 
for Fail Safe Installation". It can turn on or turn off the relay if 
ZFM-80US has not received any Z-Wave commands from a 
specified Z-Wave Node ID and within a specified period. For 
example: Z-Wave gateway can monitor a Z-Wave device status 
and power on equipment if this Z-Wave device is out of service.

Warning

The resistive household appliance connected into the Z-Wave 
controlled outlet on this module must not exceed 230Vac 10A or 
120Vac 15A.

Introduction:

Thank you for choosing ZFM-80US Z-Wave control product. Our 
Z-Wave enabled product allows user to remotely control resistive 
household appliance, and make home control easy at low 
installation / maintenance cost. You may begin with a few Z-
Wave enabled devices or build up a complete home automation 
system with our products.

The ZFM-80US Fixture Switch Module is a Z-Wave enabled 
device and fully compatible with any Z-Wave enabled network. It 
allows remote On/Off control of specified resistive household 
appliance. Each fixture switch module is designed to act as a 
repeater, which will re-transmit the RF signal to ensure that the 
signal is received by its intended destination by routing the signal 
around obstacle and radio dead spots.

(NWI)

Association

Devices, lights and nodes are all terms 
to describe an individual Z-Wave device. 
These are all interchangeable when 
setting up your Z-Wave network.

A collection of Z-Wave devices is controlled 
by primary and secondary controllers 
operating on the same system. 
A Z-Wave network has its own unique ID 
code so that controllers not in the network 
can not control the system.

Add a Z-Wave device to the network.

Delete a Z-Wave device from the network.

Network Wide Inclusion (NWI) enables 
both end-user friendly, Plug and Play like 
Z-Wave network installation as well as 
professional installation scenario where 
the inclusion process in terms of time will 
be reduced significantly. NWI is a feature 
supported by a new frame type named 
Explorer which enables the Z-Wave 
protocol to implement Adaptive Source 
Routing.

Association is used to organize nodes in 
different groups allowing the device to 
identify the nodes by a group identifier. 
The groups can also be copied to other 
devices.

Installation:

DANGER! SHOCK HAZARD.

 Read and understand these 

instructions before installing. This device is intended for 
installation in accordance with the National Electric code and 
local regulations in the United States, or the Canadian Electrical 
Code and local regulations in Canada. It is recommended that a 
qualified electrician perform this installation.

For indoor use only in a dry location. Retain instructions for future 
use.

Step 1

WARNING:

 To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, 

install in a controlled environment relatively free of 
contaminants. To avoid fire, shock, or death; turn off 
power at circuit breaker or fuse and test that power is off 
before wiring!

Step 2

Identifying your wiring application: 

refer to figure 1 

and 2

NOTE:

 If the wiring in the wall box does not resemble 

any of above configurations, c on s ul t  a  qu al i fi ed  
electrician.

Step 3

Connecting wires: 

refer to figure 1 or 2 and connect 

the wires with correct symbols.
Use at less 90 C copper wire only and the stripped 
wire end's length must be 9mm. The tightening torque 
must be 3.5lb-in. (Make sure all wires are firmly fixed at 
all terminals)

CAUTION :

  Risk of Electric Shock  More than one disconnect 

switch may be required to de-energize the equipment before 
servicing.
