ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
LED Operation
The 738Zplus has three LEDs on the PCB that allow you to determine what type of operation is occurring. See Figure 4
for LED locations.
• PTX Green LED
- If the light is blinking, then data is being sent to the panel.
• ZTX Green LED
- If the light is blinking, then data is being sent to Z-Wave Plus devices.
• ZRX Yellow LED
- If the light is blinking, then data is being received from Z-Wave Plus devices.
Z-Wave Terminology
Primary Controller:
This is the main device used to set up and control your Z-Wave network. There can only be one
primary controller and it can be used to add or delete devices. A primary controller can be a portable device like a
hand-held remote, a static controller (permanently installed & never moved), a Z-Wave enabled PC or a Z-Wave enabled
Ethernet router/bridge.
Secondary Controller:
The Z-Wave network supports multiple controllers so that additional Z-Wave remote controllers
can be used throughout the home. If the secondary controller is the same brand and model as the primary, it will have all
the same capabilities as the primary.
Home Control Network:
The controllers and every Z-Wave device added with the primary controller are linked together
into a wireless network. Each device in the network has a unique address assigned to it and cannot be activated by a
neighbor’s Z-Wave controller.
Light/Node/Device:
Node is the technical term used to describe a Z-Wave device in a home control network.
Please note that the terms “Node,” “Device,” and “Light” all refer to an individual Z-Wave enabled device and are
interchangeable within the context of these instructions.
Z-Wave Certification
• The 738Zplus is a Z-Wave Security enabled device.
• The 738Zplus can be added to an existing network as a secondary controller using the Learn (LRN) process.
• The 738Zplus is compatible with Z-Wave devices from all manufacturers.
• The 738Zplus can perform a Factory Default Reset by initializing defaults in the panel programming menu.
• The 738Zplus only supports group one with a maximum of one node.
• The 738Zplus takes no action when a basic set command is received.
Initialize Defaults
Only use this procedure when the Z-Wave network primary controller is missing or otherwise inoperable. Follow these
steps to initialize Z-Wave programming:
1. Reset the panel.
2. Enter
2313
(DIAG) at a keypad and press
CMD
to access the panel
DIAGNOSTIC MENU
.
3. Press
CMD
until
INIT Z-WAVE
displays and press a top row select key or area.
4. Select
YES
when
Z-WAVE? NO YES
displays.
INIT SUCCESSFUL
displays when all Z-Wave programming has been
initialized.
COMPATIBILITY
XT30/XT50 Series Panels
738Zplus modules connected to DMP XT30/XT50 Series panels with Version 171 firmware or higher provide full Z-Wave
Plus functionality. DMP XT30/XT50 Series panels with Version 125 or earlier provide standard Z-Wave functionality.
XR150/XR550 Series Panels
738Zplus modules connected to DMP XR150/XR550 Series panels with Version 182 firmware or higher provide full
Z-Wave Plus functionality. DMP XR150/XR550 Series panels with Version 181 or earlier provide standard Z-Wave
functionality.
Note:
If you are upgrading firmware for an XT30/XT50 Series or an XR150/XR550 Series panel that is already
connected to a 738Zplus, you will need to initialize panel defaults to access Z-Wave Plus functionality. See the
appropriate panel Programming Guide for more information on initializing defaults.
