SETUP/SHIFT button. Press and hold to enter setup mode. You
can then add lights to, or delete lights from your control network.
You can create or modify groups and scenes. Press and release to
shift number buttons from 1 through 9 to 10 through 18.
CANCEL button. Press and release to cancel the current
programming operation.
ALL button. Use to turn on or off all Z-Wave lighting at the same
time. Press ALL and then any number button.
Number buttons. Use to control up to 18 individual lights, 18
groups, and 18 scenes. Press and release to turn on or off. Press
and hold to adjust brightness. Press the button for numbers 1 to 9;
press SHIFT, then the button for numbers 10 to 18.
If this remote is used as the primary controller, you must use it to
create your control network. You can use multiple remote controls
with your Z-Wave lighting control network, however; only one
remote will act as the primary controller. The primary controller
must be used to add or delete devices (lights/nodes) from your
network. All other controllers are considered secondary and can
be used to create groups and/or scenes and control your lighting,
however, secondary controllers cannot add or delete devices from
your network.
Note: This product can be operated in one Z-Wave network with
Z-Wave certified devices.
For best results, please read and perform all the remaining
instructions before using the remote.
Installation
Batteries
Three AAA alkaline batteries (not included) are required:
• Use only fresh batteries of the required size and
recommended type.
• Do not mix old and new batteries or different types of
batteries.
• If you do not plan to use the remote for an extended period,
remove the batteries. They can leak chemicals that can
destroy electronic parts.
• Dispose of old batteries promptly and properly. Do not burn
or bury them.
• Replace fully discharged batteries immediately.
To install batteries:
1. Open the battery compartment cover (located on the back of
the remote).
2. Note the + and – polarity symbols inside the battery
compartment.
3. Insert the batteries; making sure their polarity matches the
symbols in the compartment.
4. Replace the cover.
WARNING: Due to risk of fire, electrical shock and burns, exercise
extreme caution when using Z-Wave devices to control
appliances. Operation of the Z-Wave device may be in a different
room than the controlled appliance, also an unintentional
activation may occur if the wrong button on the remote is
pressed. Z-Wave devices may automatically be powered on due to
timed event programming. Depending upon the appliance, these
unattended or unintentional operations could possibly result in a
hazardous condition. For these reasons, we recommend the
following installation guidelines.
Installation guidelines
• Assign Z-Wave controlled appliances to device numbers 10 to
18 on the remote. The likelihood of unintentionally turning on
the appliance will be reduced significantly because the Shift
button will need to be pressed before pressing device
numbers 10 to 18.
• Z-Wave devices controlling appliances should be removed
from the “All” control setting. See “All-on and all-off control”
on page 6.
• Do not include Z-Wave devices in groups or scenes if they
control appliances.
• Do not use Z-Wave devices to control electric heaters or any
other appliances that may present a hazardous condition due
to unattended, unintentional, or automatic power on control.
• Double check programming for accuracy.
Caution: Not for use with medical or life support equipment. Z-
Wave enabled devices should never be used to supply power to,
or control the on/off status of medical and/or life support
equipment.
Wireless range
This device complies with the Z-Wave standard of open-air, line of
sight transmission distances of 100 feet. Actual performance in a
home depends on the number of walls between the remote
controller and the destination device, the type of construction, and
the number of Z-Wave enabled devices installed in the control
network. Every Z-Wave enabled device acts as a signal repeater
and multiple devices result in more possible transmission routes,
which help eliminate “RF dead spots”.
RF range guidelines
• Each wall or obstacle (such as a refrigerator or big screen TV)
between the remote or a Z-Wave device and the destination
device will reduce the maximum range by approximately 25
to 30 percent.
• Brick, tile, or concrete walls block more of the RF signal than
walls made of wooden studs and plasterboard (drywall).
• Wall mounted Z-Wave devices installed in metal junction
boxes will suffer a significant loss of range (approximately 20
percent) since the metal box blocks a large part of the RF
signal.
• Z-Wave home control networks are designed to work
properly alongside 802.11 wireless computer networks,
Bluetooth and other 2.4GHz or 5.8GHz devices. Some baby
