Wire the Wall Mounted Dimmer in place of the standard wall switch according to the diagram above and program from the Wireless Controller to operate loads.   Inclusion of the ZDW120 Wall Mounted Dimmer on the ZTH100 Wireless Controller menu allows remote ON/OFF control and dimming of lights connected.  This Wall Mounted Dimmer is designed to work with other Z-Wave enabled devices.  Z-Wave nodes of other types can be added to the system and will also act as repeaters if they support this function of repeating the signal received to other modules in the system.   This product supports 40Kbps data transmission.  This product can also be used for networking support in systems that stream metadata. An example might include transmission of information from audio devices such as song title, artist, and album information to various displays around the home.As part of a Z-Wave network, the ZDW120 will also act as a wireless repeater to insure that commands intended for another device in the network are received.  This is useful when the device would otherwise be out of the radio range of the wireless controller. There are no eld repairable assemblies on this unit. If service is needed, the unit must be returned where purchased. Read and understand these instructions before installing.  This device is intended for installation in accordance with the National Electric code and local regulations in the United States, or the Canadian Electrical Code and local regulations in Canada.  It is recommended that a qualied electrician perform this installation.CAUTION!  To reduce the risk of overheating and possible damage to other equipment, do not install to control a receptacle, a motor operated appliance, a uorescent lighting xture, or a transformer-supplied ap-pliance, but only permanently installed incandescent lamp xtures.  Make sure the lamp(s) to be controlled directly from this dimmer total no more than 500 watts.  Retain instructions for future use.INSTALLATION DANGER!  -  SHOCK HAZARD.  Make all connections with the POWER OFF to avoid injury to the installer or damage        to the device.    1.  Strip 3/4” of insulation from the ends of the conductors (if not already done) and make connec-tions as shown in the Wiring Diagram.  Note that the line side of the load must be switched. HomeProRF Home AutomationSupplied with matching deco-rative switch plateNote:  This module must be “Included in the Network”  only where it will be permanently installed.  The proper operation of  this node in the mesh network is dependent on it knowing its location with respect to other nodes.  You cannot “test bench” congure this module.•  This product supports Zensor Net Beam technology

Check connections to be sure they are tight and no bare conductors are exposed.3.  Make sure the load or installation does not exceed the device rating.  4.  Restore the power.Wire this Wall Mounted Dimmer in place of an existing wall switch according to the diagram.  See the ZTH100 Wireless Controller operating instructions to add this module under the command of the Wireless Controller.Proper Single Gang InstallationUsing ZDW120’s standard full heat-sink (all tabs), the connected incandescent lamp load shall not exceed 500W.If a tab is removed from one side of the ZDW120 unit, the connected incandescent lamp load must not exceed 400W.If both tabs are removed from the ZDW120 unit, the connected incandescent lamp load must not exceed 300W.  Proper Dual Gang InstallationThe connected incandescent lamp load must not exceed 400W for each of the two ZDW120 units.  Proper Triple Gang InstallationThe connected incandescent lamp load must not exceed 300W for each of the two ZDW120 units.   Air Gap SwitchThe ZDW120 has an air gap switch on the face (lower left), that when pulled out, completely removes the power available to the load (more so than simply turning the dimmer off).  This enables the lamps that are controlled by the device to be changed with minimal danger of electrical shock.  The air gap switch must be pushed all the way back in for the dimmer to operate the lamps again.INCLUDING  ZDW120 TO THE NETWORKSTEP 1..   Prepare the Controller to include a unit to the network by adding it to a group (method of adding a node to the network).  Refer to controller instructions.  STEP 2.    The ZDW120 must be in its permanently installed location.  Tap either the top or bottom of the ZDW120 switch once.  STEP 3.    You should see an indication on your Controller that the “DEVICE WAS INCLUDED” in the network. NOTE:  If you have trouble adding the ZDW120 to a group it may be that the Home ID and Node ID were not cleared from it after testing.  You must rst “RESET UNIT” with your controller to remove it from the network.  If using the ZTH100 select “SETUP” and scroll to “RESET UNIT” Although adding it to a group includes it in the network, removing it from a group does not remove it from the network.  If removed from a group, it functions only as a repeater.      BASIC OPERATIONLocal ControlThe ZDW120 allows the user to•   Turn the load attached ON, OFF, DIM or BRIGHTEN.  •   Include or exclude the module from the Z-Wave system•   Control other Z-Wave enabled devices.The top or bottom of the ZDW120 switch can be used to carry out inclusion (add to a group), association, exclu-sion (remove from group) or reset (remove from network).    When a controller prompts you to “Send Node ID” or to “Press Button on Unit”, quickly tap on the top or bottom of the switch once to satisfy those instructions.•   Tapping top of the switch turns the load attached ON.•   Tapping bottom of the switch turns the load attached OFF.•      Pressing and holding the top of the switch will brighten the load attached, and pressing and holding the bottom of the switch will dim the load.  When OFF, pressing and holding the bottom of the switch will cause the load will go to the minimum dim level. Note:  Upon restoration of power after a power loss, the ZDW120 defaults OFF.
Z-Wave ZDW120 Instructions, Series 300, Release 3.10 P/D 060210HomeProby ADVANCED CONTROL TECHNOLOGIES, INC.0795-013LED indicationThe LED on the ZDW120 will turn on when the load attached is ON.  However, the LED can be user congured to turn ON when the load attached is OFF, if so desired, to act as a night light.The ZDW120 will icker its LED when it is transmitting to any of its groups.  This can be changed if desired.ADVANCED OPERATIONAll On/All OffThe ZDW120 supports the ALL ON/ ALL OFF commands.The ZDW120 can be set to respond to ALL ON and ALL OFF commands 4 different ways.Refer to your controller for information on how to set the ZDW120 to operate in the manner you desire. Some controllers may be only able to set certain settings of ALL ON/ALL OFF response.The 4 different ways the ZDW120 can be setup to respond to ALL ON and ALL OFF commands are:•  ZDW120 will not respond to ALL ON or the ALL OFF command.•  ZDW120 will respond to ALL OFF command but will not respond to ALL ON command.•  ZDW120 will respond to ALL ON command but will not respond to ALL OFF command.•  ZDW120 will respond to ALL ON and the ALL OFF command (default).AssociationThe ZDW120 supports the Association command.The ZDW120 can be set to control other Z-Wave devices.  Those devices must be installed in their permanent location.  You can turn on and off, and even dim other Z-Wave devices once they are “associated” in either of 2 groups with the ZDW120.  A NOTE ABOUT DIMMERS IN A GROUP:   If you combine Z-Wave enabled dimmers and other types of Z-Wave devices in a group, place a Z-Wave enabled dimmer into the empty group rst to ensure that the dimming operates correctly.Each group is turned on or off (or dimmed) by tapping or holding the switch a differing amount of times. If you associate a Z-Wave device into Group 2, you can turn that device on and off by tapping the top or bottom of the switch twice. You can brighten or dim devices by tapping the top or bottom of the switch once and then hold it down. The load attached to the ZDW120 is not affected.If you associate a Z-Wave device into Group 3, you can turn that device on by tapping the top of the switch three times or off by tapping the bottom of the switch three times. You can brighten devices by tapping the top of the switch twice or dim devices by tapping the bottom of the switch twice and then hold it down. The load attached to the ZDW120 is not affected.You can associate up to 5 Z-Wave devices into each of these groups.  For instructions on how to  “associate” a Z-Wave device into one of these groups, refer to your wireless controller instructions. (If you are using the ZTH100 controller, refer to the Setup Menu, Association section).CongurationThe ZDW120 supports the Conguration command.The ZDW120 can be congured to operate slightly differently than how it works when you rst install it. Using the Conguration command you can congure the following: You can use a ZTH100 to send Conguration commands. (Refer to the Setup Menu, Conguration section)Set Ignore Start Level Bit When Transmitting Dim CommandsThe ZDW120 can send Dim commands to Z-Wave enabled dimmers. The Dim command has a start level embedded in it.  A dimmer receiving this command will start dimming from that start level. However, the command also has a bit that indicates whether the dimmer should ignore the start level. If the bit is set to 1, the dimmer will ignore the start level and instead start dimming from its current level. To clear this bit, congure this parameter to the value of 0.•   Parameter No: 1•   Length: 1 Byte•   Valid Values  = 0 or 1 (default 1)
Z-Wave ZDW120 Instructions, Series 300, Release 3.10 P/D 060210HomeProby ADVANCED CONTROL TECHNOLOGIES, INC. 0795-014Night LightThe LED on the ZDW120 will by default, turn ON when the load attached is turned ON. To make the LED turn ON when the load attached is turned OFF instead, set parameter 3 to a value of 1.•   Parameter No: 3•   Length: 1 Byte•   Valid Values = 0 or 1 (default 0)Invert SwitchTo change the top of the switch to OFF and the bottom of the switch to ON, set parameter 4 to 1.•   Parameter No: 4•   Length: 1 Byte•   Valid Values = 0 or 1 (default 0)Ignore Start Level When Receiving Dim CommandsThe ZDW120 can be set to ignore the start level that is part of the dim command, regardless of whether the command itself is telling the dimmer to ignore the start level or not ignore the start level embedded in the command (see Parameter 1). Setting parameter 5 to a value of 0 will cause the ZDW120 to dim or brighten from the start level embedded in the command. •   Parameter No: 5•   Length: 1 Byte•   Valid Values = 0 or 1 (default 1)Enable Shade Control Group 2The ZDW120 can control shade control devices via its group 2 if this conguration parameter is set to 1.•   Parameter 14•   Length: 1 Byte•   Valid Values:  0 or 1 (default 0)Enable Shade Control Group 3The ZDW120 can control shade control devices via its group 3 if this conguration parameter is set to 1.•   Parameter 15•   Length: 1 Byte•   Valid Values:  0 or 1 (default 0)LED Transmission IndicationThe ZDW120 will icker its LED when it is transmitting to any of its 4 groups.  This ickering can be set to not icker at all (set to 0), to icker the entire time it is transmitting (set to 1), or to icker for only 1 second when it begins transmitting (set to 2). By default, the ZDW120 is set to icker for only 1 second.•   Parameter 19•   Length: 1 Byte•   Valid Values = 0 , 1, 2 (default 2)Each Conguration Parameter can be set to its default setting by setting the default bit in the Conguration Set command. See your controller’s instructions on how to do this (and if it supports it).All Conguration commands will be reset to their default state when the ZDW120 is excluded from the Z-Wave network by using the controller to reset the node (on the ZTH100 select “SETUP” and scroll to “RESET UNIT”). SUC SupportThere must be a Static Update Controller in your Z-Wave system for this feature to work.  A Static Controller is one that is not moved after addition to the network.  The Static Controller can act as a gateway in the system, since other nodes always know its position.  The “always listening” advantage of the Static Controller is that other nodes can transmit information frames to it whenever needed.You can assign an “SUC Route” to the ZDW120. Refer to your Controller’s instructions on how to do this (if it supports it). Assigning an SUC Route to the ZDW120 allows it to request an update of the Z-Wave devices that are between it and the Z-Wave device to which it was trying to transmit. The ZDW120 will only request an update when a transmission fails.
