Introduction:
Thank you for choosing the ZRP-100 Z-Wave Repeater product! The ZRP-100 is a
Z-Wave repeater with best RF performance to replicate Z-Wave signals in a network.
The repeater re-transmits an input radio frequency (RF) signal by routing the signal
around obstacles and radio dead spots to ensure that the signal is received at its
intended destination.

USER MANUAL
Device / Light /
Node
Devices, lights and nodes are all terms to describe an individual Z-
Wave device. These terms are all interchangeable when setting up your
Z-Wave network.
A collection of Z-Wave devices are 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 cannot 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.

WARNING:
To avoid fire, shock, or death; turn off power at the circuit breaker or fuse and test
that the power is off before dismounting or mounting the unit with the screw!
In case that the user needs to mount the unit with a screw, please refer to below
figures and select the desired configuration. It is recommended that a qualified
electrician perform this installation.
Note:
When plug the ZRP-100 into the AC receptacles, there will be an air gap between
ZRP-100 and wall plate. User can use additional 1 or 2 washers to fill up this air gap
and to stabilize the installation.
ZRP-100 will not block lower outlet when plugged into upper outlet of a duplex wall
receptacle and vice versa. Possible configurations are illustrated below.

Z-Wave setup and operations
Z-Wave inclusion and exclusion
Include or exclude the ZRP-100 from the existing Z-Wave home control network with
your primary controller.
- Refer to your primary controller instructions to process the inclusion / exclusion
setup procedure.
- When prompted by your primary controller, triple click the PROG button within 1
second. (The unit will enter classical inclusion/exclusion first, then jump to NWI,
and after 5 seconds, it will finally exit NWI mode automatically if there is no
inclusion/exclusion request.)
- The primary controller should indicate that the action was successful. If the
controller indicates the action was unsuccessful, please repeat the procedure.
NOTE:
Basic Command Class will not map to another command class in ZRP-100.

Restoring Factory Defaults
All Configuration Parameter values and Association information will be restored to
factory default settings and excluded from the network.
Wireless Information
Wireless range:
This device has an open-air line-of-sight transmission distance of 30m, which is
compliant with the Z-Wave standards. Performance can vary depending on the type
of obstacles, such as walls and furniture, between the Z-Wave devices. Every Z-
Wave device set up in your network will act as a signal repeater, allowing them to
talk to each other and to find alternate routes in the case of reception dead spots
caused by these obstacles.
Radio Frequency Limitations:
1. Each wall or object (i.e.: refrigerator, bookshelf, large TV, etc) can reduce the
maximum range by up to 20-30%. Plasterboard and wooden walls will have less
effect on the signal than concrete, brick, or tile.
2. Wall mounted Z-Wave devices will also suffer a loss of range if they are housed
in metal junction boxes, which could reduce the range by up to 20-30%.

Learning / NWI mode:
Triple click on PROG button
LED will continuously flash two times per second.
If the device already existing in the network, LED will
flash slowly for 2 seconds, and then return to previous
ON or OFF stage.
If the device does not exist in the network, LED will keep
flash slowly and waiting for Network Wide Inclusion
(NWI).
(The device will exit NWI mode automatically after 5
seconds)
