Z-Wave® technology is designed to automate lighting/home control and provide easy remote operation of all your Z-wave® enabled devices. The GE Z-Wave® product family includes a variety of devices to control lighting in your home. It is up to you whether you want to control one room or your entire house and whether you want to do it all now or start with one room and add more over time. This module is one component of a Z-Wave® control system and is designed to work with all other Z-Wave® enabled devices in a home control network. It will also act as a wireless repeater to insure that commands intended for another device in the network are received, thereby extending the range of the wireless controller. Z-Wave® devices of other types and brands can be added to the system and will also act as range extenders if they support this function of repeating the signal received to other nodes in the system. The incandescent lighting plugged into the Z-Wave® controlled outlet on this module must not exceed 300 watts. DO NOT use with fluorescent lighting. Plugging a non-resistive load such as fluorescent lighting or a device with a motor into the Z-Wave® controlled outlet may result in damage to the Lamp Module and will void the warranty. Manual/Program button Standard AC outlet Z-wave outlet (other end) There are no user serviceable parts in this unit. To reduce the risk of electric shock, this product has a grounding type plug that has a third (grounding) pin. This plug will only fit into a grounding type power outlet. If the plug does not fit into the outlet, contact a qualified electrician to install the proper outlet. Do not change the plug in any way. WARNING RISK OF FIRE RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK RISK OF BURNS The Load-Sense feature on this Z-Wave product will turn the power to the connected device ON when a change in the load is detected. Z-Wave connected devices should always be unplugged before performing any service or maintenance of the devices. Controlling Appliances: 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: 1. Assign Z-Wave controlled appliances to device numbers 10 – 18 on the GE 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 10-18. 2. Z-Wave devices controlling appliances should be removed from “All” control setting. Instructions on how to do this are included in the manual for your GE remote. 3. Do Not include Z-Wave devices in Groups or Scenes if they control appliances. 4. Do Not use Z-Wave devices to control electric heaters or any other appliances which may present a hazardous condition due to unattended or unintentional or automatic power on control. 5. Double check programs for accuracy before using them. 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 65 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. GE Z-Wave Network Every Z-Wave enabled device acts as a signal repeater and multiple devices result in more possible transmission routes which helps eliminate “RF dead-spots”. Things to consider regarding RF range: - Each wall or obstacle (i.e.: refrigerator, big screen TV, etc.) between the remote or a Z-Wave device and the destination device will reduce the maximum range by approximately 25-30%. - 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%) since the metal box blocks a large part of the RF signal.
