What is Z-Wave?

Z-Wave is the international wireless protocol for communication in the Smart Home. This
device is suited for use in the region mentioned in the Quickstart section.

Z-Wave ensures a reliable communication by reconfirming every message ( two- way
communication) and every mains powered node can act as a repeater for other nodes
( meshed network ) in case the receiver is not in direct wireless range of the
transmitter.

This device and every other certified Z-Wave device can be used together with any other
certified Z-Wave device regardless of brand and origin as long as both are suited for the
same frequency range.

If a device supports secure communication it will communicate with other devices
secure as long as this device provides the same or a higher level of security.
Otherwise it will automatically turn into a lower level of security to maintain
backward compatibility.

Product Description

The Aeotec Smart Boost Timer Switch is a Z-Wave Plus enabled device and can be included/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 Aeotec Smart Boost Time Switch supports consumption meter function. When the device has been included in the network, it will report the consumption power periodically. It is also a high output countdown timer that can be used to control immersion heater elements or other electrical appliances rated up to 16A. On the product, four simple white LEDs are used to show the user how much time is left to run. Pressing the switch whilst the unit is operating allows the user to cancel the timing program,and the memory function of the timer will remember the last period selected.

Prepare for Installation / Reset

Please read the user manual before installing the product.

In order to include (add) a Z-Wave device to a network it must be in factory default
state. Please make sure to reset the device into factory default. You can do this by
performing an Exclusion operation as described below in the manual. Every Z-Wave
controller is able to perform this operation however it is recommended to use the primary
controller of the previous network to make sure the very device is excluded properly
from this network.

Reset to factory default

This device also allows to be reset without any involvement of a Z-Wave controller. This
procedure should only be used when the primary controller is inoperable.

1. Press and hold the Action Button for 15 seconds, at 15 seconds the LED indicator will turn red.
2. Release the button on Smart Boost Timer Switch.
3. If the factory reset is successful, the LED Indicator will start to blink blue slowly.

Safety Warning for Mains Powered Devices

ATTENTION: only authorized technicians under consideration of the country- specific
installation guidelines/norms may do works with mains power. Prior to the assembly of
the product, the voltage network has to be switched off and ensured against re-switching.

Installation

Wiring your Smart Boost Timer Switch.

Wiring incoming power supply to Switch (To Incoming Supply / Input Power side):

1. Ensure that no power is present in the AC Live (80 – 250VAC) and Neutral wire and test them with a Voltage Screwdriver or Multimeter to make sure.
2. Connect AC Live (80 – 250VAC) wire to L terminal over Incoming power.
3. Connect AC Neutral wire to N terminal over incoming power.
4. Connect Ground wire to Earth terminal over incoming power.
5. Make sure to screw in all terminals tight so that the wires do not slip out during use.

“

Wiring your Load to Switch (To Appliance / Load side):

1. Connect Live input wire from your Load to L terminal on the load side.
2. Connect Neutral input wire from your Load to N terminal on the load side.
3. Connect Ground input wire from your Load to Earth terminal on the load side.
4. Make sure to screw in all terminals tight so that the wires do not slip out during use.

Inclusion/Exclusion

On factory default the device does not belong to any Z-Wave network. The device needs
to be added to an existing wireless network to communicate with the devices of this network.
This process is called Inclusion.

Devices can also be removed from a network. This process is called Exclusion.
Both processes are initiated by the primary controller of the Z-Wave network. This
controller is turned into exclusion respective inclusion mode. Inclusion and Exclusion is
then performed doing a special manual action right on the device.

Inclusion

1. Connect the device according to the instructions.

2. Press the Smart Boost Timer Switch 3 times quickly.

Exclusion

1. Press the Smart Boost Timer switch 3 times quickly.

Product Usage

Understanding the Power Indicator color signals.

Smart Boost Timer Switch Modes.

There are 2 separate modes for Smart Boost Timer Switch: Boost Mode or Override Schedule Mode.

Boost mode.

Boost mode will allow you to turn on your Smart Boost Timer Switch to 4 pre- programmed set times (configurable via Parameter 5) before turning off Smart Boost Timer Switch. Each time you press and hold your Smart Boost Timer Switch button for 1 second and release, this will increase the amount of time by 30 minutes up to 120 minutes maximum before turning off the switch.

Parameter 5 boost time setting.

”

Configures the boost time interval in minutes.

Controlling boost mode.

”

Boost mode has 4 settings which is configurable by Parameter 5 to allow you to configure the time settings of each boost mode.”

Each time you press and hold the Action Button for 1 second then release, you will increase boost mode up to 4 separate settings in increments of 30 minutes.

• Press and hold for 1 second then release.

“

Boost mode 1 (LED 1 on) -” Keeps your Smart Boost Timer Switch ON for 30 minutes (or configuration setting set on Parameter 5)

Boost mode 2″ (LED 1 and 2 on)” –” Keeps your Smart Boost Timer Switch ON for 60 minutes (or configuration setting set on Parameter 5)

Boost mode 3″ (LED 1, 2, and 3 on)” –” Keeps your Smart Boost Timer Switch ON for 90 minutes (or configuration setting set on Parameter 5)

Boost mode 4″ (LED 1, 2, 3, and 4 on)” –” Keeps your Smart Boost Timer Switch ON for 120 minutes (or configuration setting set on Parameter 5)

”

Override schedule mode.

”

Override Mode will override all schedules and time programmed to Smart Boost Timer Switch to allow you to manually control it through your gateway just like any other smart switch.

”

Changing between boost and override modes.

”

The mode of Smart Boost Timer Switch can be changed by pressing and holding the Action Button of Smart Boost Timer Switch for 5 seconds.

• Press and hold Action Button for 5 seconds.
• At 5 seconds, the Power Indicator light will turn green, release the button to complete the mode change.
• If the LED turns red after release, this indicates that Smart Boost Power Switch has changed to Boost mode.

Quick trouble shooting

Here are a few hints for network installation if things dont work as expected.

1. Make sure a device is in factory reset state before including. In doubt exclude before include.
2. If inclusion still fails, check if both devices use the same frequency.
3. Remove all dead devices from associations. Otherwise you will see severe delays.
4. Never use sleeping battery devices without a central controller.
5. Dont poll FLIRS devices.
6. Make sure to have enough mains powered device to benefit from the meshing

Association – one device controls an other device

Z-Wave devices control other Z-Wave devices. The relationship between one device
controlling another device is called association. In order to control a different
device, the controlling device needs to maintain a list of devices that will receive
controlling commands. These lists are called association groups and they are always
related to certain events (e.g. button pressed, sensor triggers, …). In case
the event happens all devices stored in the respective association group will
receive the same wireless command wireless command, typically a ‘Basic Set’ Command.

Association Groups:

Configuration Parameters

Z-Wave products are supposed to work out of the box after inclusion, however
certain configuration can adapt the function better to user needs or unlock further
enhanced features.

IMPORTANT: Controllers may only allow configuring
signed values. In order to set values in the range 128 … 255 the value sent in
the application shall be the desired value minus 256. For example: To set a
parameter to 200 it may be needed to set a value of 200 minus 256 = minus 56.
In case of a two byte value the same logic applies: Values greater than 32768 may
needed to be given as negative values too.
