Inclusion/Exclusion
On factory default the device does not belong to any Z-Wave network. The device needs to be added to an existing wireless network to communicate with the
devices of this network. This process is called Inclusion.
Devices can also be removed from a network. This process is called Exclusion. Both processes are initiated by the primary controller of the Z-Wave network. This
controller is turned into exclusion respective inclusion mode. Inclusion and Exclusion is then performed doing a special manual action right on the device.
Inclusion
1. Install the device according to the instructions.
2. Press the button 2 times quickly on the Nano Switch.
Exclusion
1. Press the button once on the Dual Nano Switch.
Quick trouble shooting
Here are a few hints for network installation if things dont work as expected.
1. Make sure a device is in factory reset state before including. In doubt exclude before include.
2. If inclusion still fails, check if both devices use the same frequency.
3. Remove all dead devices from associations. Otherwise you will see severe delays.
4. Never use sleeping battery devices without a central controller.
5. Dont poll FLIRS devices.
6. Make sure to have enough mains powered device to benefit from the meshing
Association - one device controls an other device
Z-Wave devices control other Z-Wave devices. The relationship between one device controlling another device is called association. In order to control a different
device, the controlling device needs to maintain a list of devices that will receive controlling commands. These lists are called association groups and they are
always related to certain events (e.g. button pressed, sensor triggers, ...). In case the event happens all devices stored in the respective association group will
receive the same wireless command wireless command, typically a 'Basic Set' Command.
Association Groups:
Group Number
Maximum
Nodes
Description

Z-Wave Plus Lifeline.When the load state of Nano Switch (on/off) is changed, the Hail CC,
Switch Multilevel Report and Basic Report (configured by parameter 80) can be sent to the
associated nodes in this group.

Forward the Basic Set, Switch All, Scene Activation Set to associated nodes in Group 2 when
the Nano Switch receives the Basic Set, Switch All, Scene Activation Set commands from main
controller.

5
Send Basic Set (configured by parameter 82) to the associated nodes in Group 3 when the
external switch S1 is operated

5
Send Basic Set (configured by parameter 82) to the associated nodes in Group 4 when the
external switch S2 is operated
Configuration Parameters
Z-Wave products are supposed to work out of the box after inclusion, however certain configuration can adapt the function better to user needs or unlock further
enhanced features.
