Z-Wave® Certiﬁed

Wireless Lighting Control

Introduction:

Thank you for your purchase of a GE Z-Wave® control

device. 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 device provides control of 4 Groups and 4 Scenes.

Up to 32 Z-Wave devices can be included in each of the

Groups and Scenes. It is a secondary controller only and

cannot function as a primary controller.

operated in one Z-Wave network

with Z-Wave certiﬁed devices from

other manufacturers and/or other

applications. The different listening

nodes within the network may act

as repeaters regardless of vendor.

For best results, please read all of

the instructions before using this

controller. Keep this manual for

future reference.

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 must 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/

gateway.

Secondary Controller: The

Z-Wave network supports

multiple controllers so the

residents can use additional

Z-Wave remotes throughout the

home. A secondary controller

can not be used to add or delete

devices.

Slave: Devices within the Z-Wave

network are either controllers or

slaves. Most AC powered slaves

also function as repeaters in the

network, and when required,

relay the command signals to

the destination device. Battery

powered devices like motion

detectors are typically asleep

and do not function as repeaters.

Home Control Network: Your

controllers and every Z-Wave

device you have added with the

primary controller are linked

together into a wireless network.

Each device in your network has

a unique address assigned to it

and cannot be activated by your

neighbor’s Z-Wave controller.

Light/Node/Device: Node is the

technical term used to describe

a Z-Wave device in your 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.

Group: Groups can also be

thought of as an area or zone.

Multiple Z-Wave devices can be

turned ON or OFF with a single

command when they are placed

into a Group. One example

would be Grouping your porch

light, exterior garage lights and

patio lights together so that they

could all be turned ON if you hear

a strange sound in the middle of

the night.

Scene: Scenes are normally

activity based lighting schemes.

A Scene lets you establish preset

brightness levels for multiple

Z-Wave controlled lights and

then control them with one

command. This is ideal for mood

or task lighting. Scene 1 could

be the family room lights set to

dim for watching TV. Scene 2

could have the same lights set

to a different brightness level for

other activities like reading or

entertaining.

Include /Exclude: Include

and exclude are the formal

terms used to describe adding,

removing or deleting devices to

or from the control network or

Groups and Scenes.

Replicate: This is the Z-Wave

term for copying or transferring

the Z-Wave network data to a

new controller. This process is

also used to update secondary

controllers after changes have

been made to the control

network with the primary

controller.

BATTERIES

Two CR2032 batteries are

pre-installed in the unit. Be sure

to Remove the insulating tabs

before trying to program and use

the device.

Battery Use and Safety

- Use only fresh batteries of the

required size and

recommended type.

- Replace both batteries at the

same time! Do not mix old and

new batteries or different types

of batteries.

- Dispose of old batteries

promptly and properly. Do not

burn or bury them.

- Replace fully discharged

batteries immediately

- Remove batteries if the product

is to be unused for extended

period of time.

To Install Batteries:

1. Insert a ﬂat-blade screwdriver

into the small slot at the

bottom of the faceplate and

twist gently to remove the

faceplate from the device.

2. Remove the small screw from

the battery retainer door. Pull

out on the top of the door (it is

hinged at the bottom).

3. Slide the batteries out of the

holder.

4. Install new batteries in the

correct orientation based on

the “+” & “-“ polarity markings

5. Hold the batteries in place

(pushing them toward the

center of the unit) and close

the battery door making sure

that the ends of the retainer

door ﬁt over the batteries.

Please note that the battery

retainer door hinges at the

bottom and can lock in the

open position. You may need

to pull or lift it gently to close it.

6. Reinstall the retainer screw

and faceplate.

Battery Life: This device is just like any

universal A/V remote control;

the more you use it, the shorter the

battery life. Under normal operating

conditions, the batteries should last

for approximately one year. LED

indicators behind the Group/Scene

control buttons will blink when one of

the buttons is Pressed. The brightness

of the blinking LED will diminish as the

batteries are depleted. A very dim

LED will provide a visual indication

that the batteries need to be replaced.

Network, Group & Scene programming

will be retained while changing

batteries. Please note: Using this

device to control Groups and Scenes

containing large numbers of Z-Wave

devices will be more demanding on

the batteries than smaller Groups and

Scenes, resulting in shorter battery life.

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.

RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK

RISK OF BURNS

WARNING

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.

Please Note: 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 cams, wireless video

devices and older cordless phones using the 900MHz frequency range

may cause interference and limit Z-Wave functionality. Many 900MHz

products have a switch to select channel “A” or “B”. You may ﬁnd that

one of these channels will cause less interference than the other.

Mounting

1. We recommend that you setup the controller and familiarize

yourself with the functions before mounting it. This controller

may be mounted with double sided tape or screws (and

hollow wall anchors where necessary). Mounting hardware is

included. The mounting surface must be smooth and clean

if using the tape. Ideally, it should be mounted at the same

height as the wall switches in your home.

2. The faceplate snaps onto the main body of the controller after

it is mounted on the wall. It can be easily removed by inserting

a small ﬂat blade screwdriver into the slot on the bottom and

twisting gently.

Operation

NOTE: In order to prolong battery life, the controller will “Time-

Out”, exit setup and go into stand-by (sleep) mode if more than 10

seconds elapses between steps in any programming process.

Copying Network and Device Information to

this Controller (Replication)

This controller is a secondary controller; you must copy (replicate) your

primary controller’s device and network information to this secondary

controller before trying to create or modify Groups and Scenes.

The network information copied to this device depends upon

the brand/type of primary controller you are using. If the

primary controller is a GE brand hand-held remote, all of the

device & network information plus the ﬁrst 4 Groups and

Scenes you created can be copied. If the primary controller is

a different brand or type (internet gateway, Z-Wave enabled

computer, etc.), the device & network information will be

copied but the Groups/Scenes may not be. In either case,

once this device has been added to your network, you can

create or modify the Groups and Scenes to meet your needs.

1. Place the two controllers next to each other.

2. Put the primary controller into transfer mode so that it sends

its information to this secondary controller. Refer to the

instruction manual for your primary controller on how to put

it into this mode

3. Press and hold the Add and Remove buttons at the same time

until the orange LED blinks twice.

4. Press and release the OFF side of Group/Scene buttons 1,2,3,4

in sequence (left side of buttons).

5. The Orange LED will start blinking.

6. When the Orange LED stops blinking and the Green LED blinks

twice, you have successfully transferred information to the

keypad controller.

Create or Adding a device to a Group

Since this is a secondary controller, it cannot add a new device

to the network, but it can add a network device to a Group. The

network information must be copied to this device before trying to

create or modify a Group.

1. Press and hold the Add and Remove buttons at the same time

until the Orange LED blinks twice, then release.
