NevoConnect NC-50 is a Z-Wave enabled base station that allows non-line of sight control of infrared and serial devices along with sensing of a device’s power state via video or voltage sensors. NevoConnect NC-50 Requirements You will need a NevoConnect NC-50 in each room or equipment closet containing devices to be controlled. You must configure each Nevo Controller to send commands via NevoConnect NC-50. See the NevoStudio Pro Design Guide for more information. NevoConnect NC-50s Unpacking NevoConnect NC-50 NevoConnect NC-50 comes with the following components: NevoConnect NC-50 Power Adapter; varies depending on country NevoConnect NC-50 Features 4 IR Blaster LEDs and a Front Panel Activity LED (all behind the plastic) 3.5mm Addressable Programmable Ports USB port Removable Z-Wave Antenna Program Button Power Connection Port Activity LEDs Power Status LED IR Signal Strength Adjustment Pots Reset Button Wireless IR Control In a wireless setup, NevoConnect NC-50 can simply be set so that the IR blaster on the front is within the IR range of the devices to be controlled: IR receiver on device 180° 30° 15.24 m 15.24 m IR receiver on device Wired IR Control NevoConnect NC-50 can be used in a wired configuration for installations where the device needs a direct connection. To set this up: 1. Connect any combination of up to 6 IR Emitters (one for each device to be controlled, sold separately), Nevo Serial Modules (sold separately) or Nevo sensing devices (sold separately) to the programmable ports on NevoConnect NC-50’s rear panel. Installer Tip: Serial and sensing devices must be plugged into the port that was assigned to them as part of the device setup in NevoStudio Pro. 2. Connect the other end of the Nevo IR Emitter, Nevo Serial Module, or Nevo sensor to the devices to be controlled. For Nevo IR Emitters, peel off the paper from the adhesive label and stick the IR transmitter directly on top of the device’s IR receiver. 3. Connect the power adapter to NevoConnect NC-50’s rear panel, then to a power outlet. Connecting to a Z-Wave Network Installer Tip: Make all connections (such as IR emitters, sensors, or serial modules) before you plug in the power adapter. Z-Wave Terminology The following table describes the terms used in Nevo wizards and their relationship with terms used in the ZWave standard:. Nevo Text Z-Wave Action Notes/How it’s used Add Inclusion Also used to initiate Controller Replication from a Primary. Remove a node from the current or another network. Also referred to as “Change Primary”, initiated from the Primary Controller to pass on the Primary role to another Controller. Remove Exclusion Shift Primary Shift Primary Factory Reset Static UC Create New Primary Join / Program Factory Reset SUC Static Update Controller Create New Create new primary from SUC. Primary Join/Leave Existing Network, also prepares a controller for receiving replication data from the Primary Controller NevoConnect NC-50 serves as a Static Controller and should be selected as the Static Update Controller by the Primary Controller. NevoConnect NC-50 cannot act as a Primary Controller. The following are processes that require input directly at NevoConnect: • Being Added to or Removed from a network, also referred to as the inclusion/exclusion process • Creating a new Primary Controller • Soft Resets • Hardware Factory Reset Add/Remove NevoConnect NC-50 The Z-Wave network is managed by the Primary Controller. There are two steps to add NevoConnect NC50 to a network, regardless of what manufacturer device is serving as the Primary Controller: 1. Add/Initiate Inclusion on the Primary Controller (on NevoQ50, press the Add button). 2. Press the Program button on the rear panel of NevoConnect NC-50 for approximately 1/2 second. NevoConnect NC-50 will double blink to show the process has started and will remain off until the process is complete. When complete, the Power LED will blink twice then remain on. The duration of the blinks indicates if the Inclusion was successful: • Success: Two quick flashes (0.2 seconds each) • Failure: Two long flashes (0.8 seconds each) To remove NevoConnect NC-50, follow the steps above, but instead use Remove/Initiate Exclusion on the Primary Controller (press the Remove button on NevoQ50). If you are using a Nevo Controller as the Primary Controller, step by step directions are provided on-screen. Create New Primary This is initiated only from a NevoConnect NC-50 that has been previously configured as the Static Update Controller. Use this to create a new Primary Controller if the original Primary Controller is lost or damaged. 1. If you are using a Nevo Controller for the new Primary Controller, select Settings | Ecosystem | Configure | Program on the touchscreen. 2. Press and hold the program button on NevoConnect NC-50 for 10 seconds (until you see the Power LED blink twice). 3. Press Program on the Controller that is to be the new Primary Controller. 4. When the process is complete, the Power LED will blink twice then remain on. The duration of the blinks indicates if the process was successful, just as in the Add/Remove NevoConnect NC-50 process. You can confirm that Nevo is now the Primary Controller by selecting the Z-Wave option from the Settings menu. Soft Reset To initiate a soft reset of NevoConnect NC-50 hardware, press the reset button on the bottom panel. You will see the Power LED blink. Factory Reset WARNING:This action will reset NevoConnect NC-50 to its unconfigured state and remove it from the Z-Wave network. NevoConnect NC-50 will be unable to communicate on the current Z-Wave network. To factory reset, follow these steps: 1. Unplug NevoConnect NC-50. 2. While pressing and holding the reset button, plug in NevoConnect NC-50. 3. Continue to hold down the reset button for 10 seconds (until you see the Power LED blink). 4. Factory reset is complete when the power indicator no longer blinks.
