Wireless Lighting Control Module
PD-100
Plug In Dimmer/Lamp Module
INTRODUCTION
domitech™ PD-100 is a member of the Z-Wave® family and communicates with other Z-
Wave certified devices in a control network. PD-100 can be used to turn any plug in lamps
On, Off, or control dimming of any lamps with dimmable light bulbs. Each Z-Wave device
also serves as a node to repeat the signal in the network, thus, extending the overall Z-Wave
mesh wireless network range. Different types and brands of Z-Wave devices can be
associated with domitech PD-100 in your system and they will work together to optimize and
expand the coverage of your Z-Wave network. Once setup is completed, you can enjoy the
convenience and leisure which PD-100 offers.

! WARNING !
RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRICAL SHOCK & BURNS
DO NOT USE WITH MEDICAL AND LIFE SUPPORT INSTRUMENT
No user serviceable parts are in this module
To minimize the risk of electric shock, the power plug of this module has a grounding pin
which only fits into a grounding 3-prong electrical outlet. Please call a qualified electrician to
replace the outlet if the plug does not fit into it. Do not attempt to change the plug in any way.
The lighting devices connected to this Z-Wave module must not exceed 2.5A, 300W
incandescent, 100W dimmable CFL/LED.
CAUTION: To Reduce the Risk of Overheating And Possible Damage To Other Equipment,
Do Not Install To Control A Motor-Operated Appliance, A Non-Dimmable Fluorescent
Lighting Fixture, Or A Transformer-Supplied Appliance
SETUP
Step 1. Plug the 2-pin AC power plugs of lighting device to the receptacle of PD-100
Step 2. Insert the module's 3-pin plug into an AC outlet of your preferred location. In normal
operating mode, the LED on the front panel will be lit.
Step 3. Add(Include) the module into your network by a Z-Wave certified controller. Please
refer to your gateway’s or the controller’s instructions manual for details.
Normally, the sequence is as follows:
1. Initiate software to add a new device on your controlling device
2. When the controller’s software is ready, single click the button on the front of PA-
100
3. The controller’s software should indicate that the new device was added
successfully.
If the controller’s software shows it was a fail, repeat the procedure.
Note: If Inclusion still failed after the 2nd attempt, you need to first reset the PD-100 before
repeating the above step. The manual reset method is as follows,
1. Unplug the PD-100
from the AC outlet and
also unplug the power
plugs of the lighting
from the module
(if plugged in)
2. Press and hold the
button on the PD-100
3. Plug the PD-100
back into the AC outlet
with the button pressed
After 3 seconds, release the button. If you see the button blinks, that means that the PD-100
has been reset successfully and you may retry Step 3 above to add the module into your
network. Otherwise, please repeat the manual reset procedures.
Note: if the PD-100 was previously Added(Included) in your network, resetting it locally
does not mean it has been removed from your network. If you wish to remove PA-100 from
your network you will need to Delete(Exclude) the module from the network by your
controller.
BASIC OPERATION
The connected lighting devices can be controlled manually with a push button
OR
Wirelessly with a remote controller
Once the PD-100 has been added to your network, you may assign it to a Group or Scene,
change its status when the All ON or OFF command is received from the controller. It can
also be set in Association with another Z-Wave device to perform a specific duty. Please refer
to the instructions manual of your gateway or remote controller for detail procedures on how
these functions can be set.
About the push button:
There is a single button on PD-100 for manual operation that:
A. Manually turns the connected lighting ON/OFF by pressing the button. It functions
as a toggle switch; if the light is ON, pressing the button turns the light OFF and vice
a versa.
B. Adjust the brightness level of the connected lighting by pressing and holding the
button. Release the button when the desired level is reached. It functions as a toggle
switch as well. The lighting keeps dimming until the minimum level is reached or the
button is released. When you press the button again and hold, the brightness of the
light will keep increasing until the maximum level is reached or when the button is
released.
C. Adds(Includes) or Deletes(Excludes) your PD-100 to/from your Z-Wave network.
Please refer to the instructions manual of your gateway or remote controller for detail
procedures on how these actions can be done.
This push button is also backlit with an LED indicator that will be On when the connected
appliance is Off, and vice versa. The module may be easily spotted even in a gloomy
environment. By changing the following configuration with your primary controller(if
supported), 2 more options are available.
Parameter 3 Length: 1 Byte Valid Values: 0, 1 or 2 (default = 0)
When value = 1, the LED indicator will be ON when the connected appliance is ON, and the
LED indicator will be OFF when the connected appliance is OFF
When value = 2, the LED indicator is always OFF regardless of the load condition
About dimming:
The time interval of brightness change between dimming up and down can be adjusted by
changing the following configuration with a controller(if supported)
Parameter 9 (level) Length: 1 Byte Valid Values: 1-99 (default = 1),
indicates the number of levels the lighting will change when the timer runs out.
Parameter 10 (timer) Length: 1 Byte Valid Values: 1-255 (default = 3),
indicates the time duration of each level.
The resolution is 10 milliseconds. For example, a default value of 3 means the timer runs out
every 30 milliseconds. Using the combinations of these 2 parameters, you can create a dim
rate adjustment range as short as 10 milliseconds to a very slow dim rate.
About the Z-Wave 500 Series module:
You can use a Z-Wave certified portable or static controller to communicate with the module.
Depending on the capability of your controller or gateway software, the following simple to
advanced operations can be performed. Please refer to the controller or gateway manual for
details.
1. Turn the lighting On/Off and to Dim or Brighten
2. Add(Include) or Delete(Exclude) your PD-100 to/from your network
3. Assign your PD-100 to a specific Group/Scene and/or to include your PD-100 as part
of your All ON or OFF command
4. Over-the-Air firmware update by your gateway or static controller
5. Lifeline function which automatically notifies the associated modules and the network
that a manually reset device is no longer in the network, thus, the corresponding
association becomes invalid
Please note that the module will be OFF after a power failure
