The ZWL-APS is a battery-operated wireless device that operates as an accessory in a Z-Wave network. It will control
associated dimmers or switches and their lighting loads. You can create a 3-way where a second location is not currently
available without having to add new electrical wiring. This product works with other Z-Wave products from different vendors
and product categories as part of the same network. This product is not a listening node as it is a battery powered device and
goes to sleep to conserve battery life. Therefore it will not perform the repeater function typical of other Z-Wave devices.
BATTERY INSTALLATION AND REPLACEMENT:
2 CR2025 batteries are included with each ZWL-APS. Lift the battery latch with a
screwdriver to open the battery cover. Remove the plastic strips from under the
batteries. Observe polarity when installing the batteries. Be careful to insert the
batteries under the 4 small plastic tabs in the battery compartment. Re-latch the
battery cover. After the batteries are successfully installed, the LED on the ZWL-APS
will blink for one minute to indicate the device in not included in the RF network. The
device will go to sleep after one minute to conserve battery life. When not installed,
pressing the ON/OFF button again will wake up the device, and the LED will resume
blinking for one minute to remind the installer that the device is still not installed
in the RF network. With normal usage (up to 20 keypresses per day) battery life is
expected to be 1-2 years.
PHYSICAL INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS:
Attach the ZWL-APS to any flat surface using the double-sided tape provided, or mount it to the wall using the screws and
anchors provided. NOTE: Do not install an ZWL-APS over an electrical box. The device must be installed onto a flat surface.
Do not install on a metal surface since this will impede the RF signal.
Z-WAVE NETWORK INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS:
The ZWL-APS can be used as an accessory device which can be included in a new or existing network by using your Z-Wave
controller. To include as an accessory device, select the command on your controller for inclusion (Install, Add Device, Add
Node, Include Device, etc.), then press the Battery Operated Switch on/off button one time to include it in the network. The
LED will blink a few times and then stop blinking after the device is successfully included
in the network.
