NOTE: This unit must be added to 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” configure this unit, then install.
WD500Z5-1 & WD1000Z5-1
WALL MOUNTED DIMMERS
For indoor use only. Retain instructions for future use.
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
fluorescent lighting fixture, or a transformer-supplied appliance, but only permanently
installed incandescent lamp fixtures. Make sure the lamp(s) to be controlled directly from
the dimmer total no more the maximum rated load.
The GoControl™ family of Z-Wave® certified wireless lighting products (smart LED
fixtures, bulbs, switches, dimmers, outlets, and plug-in modules) Control Products
(thermostats, irrigation controller and garage door controller) and Sensors (flood, leak,
alert sounder, motion sensor and door/window sensor) bring a new level of intelligent
wireless Home Automation capability to commercial and residential environments.
The Z-Wave wireless protocol is an international wireless standard for remote home
automation, security and other applications. This product can be included and operated
in any Z-Wave network with other Z-Wave certified devices from other manufacturers
and/or other applications. All non-battery operated nodes within the network will act as
repeaters regardless of vendor to increase reliability of the network.
The WD500Z5-1 & WD1000Z5-1 Wall Mounted Dimmers allow remote ON/OFF control
and dimming of connected lights. The Z-Wave Wall Mount Dimmer is easily wired in place
of a standard wall dimmer. This device requires a Neutral connection.
GoControl Z-Wave products are easy to install, are Z-Wave certified, and allow dealers to
create an integrated wireless network with nearly limitless expansion and interoperability
with security, energy management, home entertainment, appliances, and more
Air Gap Switch
The GoControl Dimmer has an air gap switch on the face (lower left), that when pulled
out, completely removes the power available to the load (simply turning the dimmer off
does not). 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.
Proper Single Gang Installation
Using GoControl Dimmer’s standard full heat-sink (all tabs), the connected incandescent
lamp load shall not exceed 500W (WD500Z5-1) or 1000W (WD1000Z5-1).
If a tab is removed from one side of the unit, the connected incandescent lamp load must
not exceed 400W (WD500Z5-1) or 900W (WD1000Z5-1).
If both tabs are removed from the unit, the connected incandescent lamp load must not
exceed 300W (WD500Z5-1) or 800W (WD1000Z5-1).
Z-WAVE PLUS FEATURES
Proper Dual Gang Installation
The GoControl Dimmer contains a Z-Wave 500 Series Module that supports Z-Wave
Plus® features. A Z-Wave certified portable or stationary Controller can communicate
with the Z-Wave 500 Series Module.
Depending on the capability of the Controller or gateway software, the following
operations can be performed with the GoControl Dimmer. Refer to the Controller or
gateway manual for details.
The connected incandescent lamp load must not exceed 400W (WD500Z5-1) or 900W
(WD1000Z5-1) for each of the two GC Dimmer units.
Proper Triple Gang Installation
The connected incandescent lamp load must not exceed 300W (WD500Z5-1) or 700W
(WD1000Z5-1) for each of the three GC Dimmer units.
INSTALLATION
• Turn the load ON and OFF and dim the load.
• Add or Remove the GoControl Dimmer.
• Assign the GoControl Dimmer to a specific Group/Scene and/or to include
the load as part of ALL ON or ALL OFF system commands.
• Over-the-air firmware update by the gateway or static Controller.
• 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.
Wiring
Wire this switch in place of a current wall switch according to the wiring diagram. When used,
GoControl Dimmers are required to be wired to the same line (or neutral) which is also wired to
the load being controlled, and not wired to any other neutral. If multiple neutrals are tied together in
one box, separate the neutrals to preserve the integrity of the GoControl Dimmer circuit.
✓ CAUTION! Do not wire unit “live” (with power on the circuit).
Adding to a Network:
Refer to your Controller operating instructions to add this switch under the command of
the Wireless Controller.
1. With your Controller in Discovery or Add Mode, tap the switch. The LED will blink
slowly when in ADD Mode.
2. You should see an indication on your Controller that the “device was added” to the
network and the LED will stop blinking.
3. The device will appear in the list of Switches. It should display as a switch.
If the Controller/Gateway shows the addition failed, repeat Steps 1-3.
PREPARATION
DANGER! SHOCK HAZARD. 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 qualified electrician perform this
installation. Make sure the total load controlled does not exceed the rated maximum.
✓ NOTE: If you have trouble adding the GoControl Dimmer to a group it may be that the
Home ID and Node ID were not cleared from it after testing. You must first “RESET
UNIT” to remove it from the network. 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 as a repeater (only). “RESET UNIT” removes it completely
from the network.
Creating Associations
1. Learn all devices into the Z-Wave Hub.
2. Tap the paddle of the GoControl Dimmer four times quickly to enter Association
mode. The LED will begin to blink quickly (twice per second).
3. Follow the instructions for inclusion or exclusion of the device to be associated. For
GoControl devices, tap the button one or two times.
4. Repeat Step #2 and #3 for up to 5 total dimmers and / or switches within 60 seconds
of entering Association mode.
5. Association mode will turn off after 60 seconds or when a node has been associated.
Although the Associations are now functional, it is recommended that you refer to
your Hubs instructions to “Poll” or “Heal” the Z-Wave network to recognize the new
Associations.
To Reset Unit (If Required):
In the event that your primary Controller is lost or otherwise inoperable, to reset the
GoControl Dimmer and clear all network information, follow these steps:
1. Tap the top of the switch five (5) times.
2. Press and hold the bottom of the switch for 15 seconds. The LED will increasingly
blink faster to indicate that a Reset is taking place.
Removing Associations
Removing from a Network:
To remove the Associations, if the Hub has recognized the Associations, refer to the
Z-Wave Hub’s instructions on how to remove Associations. If the Hub has not recognized
the Associations, removing the GoControl Dimmer from the Z-Wave network will
eliminate the Associations
The GoControl Dimmer can be removed from the network by the Controller/Gateway.
Refer to the Controller operating instructions for details.
1. Set the Controller into Removal Mode and follow its instruction to delete the
GoControl Dimmer from the Controller.
2. Remove the switch by tapping the paddle 2 times. The LED will begin blinking slowly
for 10 seconds indicating that it has been removed.
3. You should see an indication on your Controller that the “device was removed” from
the network.
New Central Scene Command Class Support
The GoControl Dimmer Switch supports the new Central Scene Command Class. This
allows the Switch to execute up to 10 independent events that are triggered by Key
Attributes related to (2) two Scene Numbers.
By tapping or holding down the top or bottom of the Switch paddle a specific Scene
Number Key Attribute is transmitted as shown below in addition to the standard operation
of the switch as described above in Basic Operations Load Control section.
BASIC OPERATION
Local Control
Pushing the top or bottom of the switch, the WD500Z-1 allows the user to do the following:
Paddle Presses
• Turn ON, OFF, DIM or BRIGHTEN the load attached.
• Configure to Control Shades or Window Coverings via Z-Wave network.
• Control other Z-Wave enabled devices. Also, when a controller prompts you
to “Send Node ID” or to “Press Button on Unit”, quickly tap the top or bottom
of the switch once to satisfy those instructions.
• Tapping top of the switch turns the load attached to the previous ON level.
• 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 to go
to the minimum dim level.
✓ NOTE: Upon restoration of power after a power loss, the WD500Z-1 returns to
previous known state.
LED Indication
To act as a night light, the LED on the GoControl Dimmer will turn ON when the load
attached is OFF. However, the LED can be user configured to turn ON, when the load
attached is ON, if so desired. See “CONFIGURATION” section.

When the paddle is tapped or pressed, the dimmer sends the Scene Number and Key
Attribute to the Z-Wave Hub via Association Group 1. The hub can then control any
Z-Wave devices supported by the Hub. Refer to your Z-Wave Hub instructions for details
on how to control other devices using the Central Scene feature.
Remote Control
The GoControl Dimmer will respond to BASIC and BINARY commands that are part of
the Z-Wave system. Refer to your Controller’s instructions as to whether your Controller
can transmit those commands.
✓ NOTE: The Z-Wave Hub has to support the Central Scene Command Class in order
to take advantage of this feature.
✓ NOTE: The Scene Number is not the same as standard Z-Wave Scenes IDs. The
Scene Number is simply the top (1) or bottom (2) of the paddle and is not a “Scene”
in the classic Z-Wave sense. The Key Attribute tells the Hub how the paddle was
pressed as described in the table above.
ADVANCED OPERATION
All On/All Off
The GoControl Dimmer supports the ALL ON / ALL OFF commands. The GoControl
Dimmer can be set to respond to ALL ON and ALL OFF commands four different ways.
Refer to your Controller for information on how to set the GoControl Dimmer to operate
in the manner you desire. Some Controllers may be only able to set certain settings of
ALL ON/ALL OFF response.
The four different ways the GoControl Dimmer can be setup to respond to ALL ON and
ALL OFF commands are:
1. Responds to ALL ON or the ALL OFF command.
2. Responds to ALL OFF command but will not respond to ALL ON command.
3. Responds to ALL ON command but will not respond to ALL OFF command.
4. Responds to ALL ON and the ALL OFF command.
CONFIGURATION
The Start Level sent in a Dim command can be ignored or not. Typically the dim
level should start from the current level and dim from there instead of suddenly
changing to the Start Level and then dimming.
Set Ignore Start Level Bit When Transmitting Dim
Commands
The Start Level sent in a Dim command can be ignored or not. Typically the dim level
should start from the current level and dim from there instad of suddenly changing to the
