Description
The 20-Amp Appliance Switch is a device that helps you to limit use of a high
power-consuming device, such as a room air conditioner, refrigerator,
freezer, or television set during high-peak (most expensive) power
conditions.
When choosing a location to plug in the appliance switch, consider the
following: (1) Avoid placing it near other household devices that can
cause interference, such as microwave ovens or cordless telephones
utilizing the 2.4 GHz frequency band; (2) Place within range of other
ZigBee devices to facilitate communication on the Control4 system.
Plug the appliance switch 3-prong power cord into a wall outlet.
Plug the appliances 3-prong power cord into the female power cord of
the appliance switch.
On a PC connected to the system, start the Composer software
provided (Composer 1.6 with the AMI Add-On Pack) to configure the
appliance switch for this installation. (Refer to the Composer online help
for general instructions on configuring a device.)
a. In the System Design view, verify that Wireless Outlet Switch w/
The Appliance Switch is controlled by a Control4 home automation system
using an industry standard radio communications connection (802.15.4, also
known as ZigBeeTM).
Override is displayed in the project tree. If not, go to Search tab
(Local Database) and select:
• Device Type: Other
• Manufacturer: Control4
to display the Control4 driver options ERT Meter Bridge and
ENERGY_OUTLET (appliance switch), then add
ENERGY_OUTLET to the project tree. Once added, this device
displays in the tree as Wireless Outlet Switch w/ Override.
The Appliance Switch works with your Control4 home automation system
and utility companies to provide you with rate information and rules that you
can adjust to help minimize the power consumption of your key appliances
during high rate periods. The Appliance Switch switches LED colors to
indicate current status and power consumption (as described in Table 5 on
page 2). This information is also sent to the Home Controller as a system
event. System events can be used in programming either to notify home
owners of rate changes or to turn on or off an appliance.
b. In the Connections view, select the Network tab.
c. In the IP Network Connections list, select Wireless Outlet Switch
w/ Override and then click Identify.
d. Follow the screen prompt to identify this device: At the appliance
switch, press the Override buttom 4 times. When successfully
identified, a network address displays for this device.
