Z-WAVE INTEROPERABILITY
This product can be included and operated in any Z-Wave network with other Z-Wave certified devices from other manufacturers and/or other applica-
tions. All non-battery operated nodes within the network will act as repeaters regardless of vendor to increase the reliability of the network.
This Device supports Lifeline (association group 1) supporting 1 node for lifeline communication.
Group 1 must be assigned the Node ID of the primary controller where unsolicited notifications will be sent. The Z-Wave controller should set this
association automatically after inclusion.
Lifeline association only supports the “Device Reset Locally” function. Refer to the instructions of your controller for any available details on how this
can be set.

A quick note before we give out the wiring schematics. Please do not try installing this device if you are unsure of how electrical circuits operate
within your home. As exciting as it is to have a smart switch installed, it can be dangerous and even life-threatening if you do not install this
correctly. Please consult a qualified electrician if necessary. With that said, here are a few other warnings we’d like to point out for your safety:
