MAGNUM FIRST MZ-ESRP, EDRP Rocker Switch Installation Guide

MAGNUM FIRST MZ-ESRP, EDRP Rocker Switch

Description

The light switch, also known as the “rocker switch” is a battery-free, wireless transmitting device that communicates with a wide variety of receivers, including relay controllers as well as all of the Magnum OPUS line. Every time the light switch is pressed, a small microgenerator produces a tiny electrical current that powers a built-in transmitter. This transmitter sends wireless signals that command the relay/receiver to turn a device “off”, “on” as well as “dimming”, where applicable.

Planning

Take a moment to prepare and ensure optimal communications with other system components, and for user convenience.

• Pick a convenient location, perhaps near a door where occupants enter and exit
• Consider the construction materials in the space and obstacles that may interfere with RF signals

Installation

1. Decide where you want to mount the rocker pad. The standard height for wall switches is 49” or 125 cm on the center.
2. Remove the wall plate from the rocker pad assembly.
3. Decide which of the two installation options is appropriate.

• A. Surface Mounted Installation

• Using a level and a pencil, lightly mark 2 small dots to align the top edge of the mounting plate.

• Mark the mounting screw drill points.

• Drill holes for the wall anchors with a 3/16” drill bit and insert wall anchors.

• Insert the top screw(s) loosely and level the back plate.

• Insert the bottom screw(s), and then hand tightens the top screw(s).

• Attach the wall plate on top of the rocker pad using the two screw holes.

• NOTE: For proper assembly, make sure to align the “top” labels on the rocker pad and wall plate.

• B. Flush Mounted Installation

• NOTE: When installing over an existing wall box make sure any bare electrical wires are capped.

• Remove the assembly screws which hold the wall plate, rocker pad, and mounting plate together.

• Use a tool to carefully pry the rocker pad free from the back plate. The back plate is not used for this option.

• Mount the rocker pad over the existing wall box using the two screw holes,

• NOTE: For proper assembly, make sure to align the “top” labels on the rocker pad and wall plate.

• Attach the wall plate on top of the rocker pad using the two wall box screw holes.

• Insert the trim plate tabs in the bottom slots, and then lightly flex the plate to insert top tabs.

• TIP: To remove the trim plate, use a flat-head screwdriver to depress the trim plate tabs using the 2 slots on the bottom of the wall plate. Alternatively, use a fingernail to press down along the top groove and flex the tabs out of the slots.

• Click the rocker pad on and off to test the mechanism.

• NOTE: To activate dimming, press, and hold; top button to increase, bottom button to decrease.

Commissioning

Part 1: Activate the commissioning (or linking) mode for a system compatible with the switch.
If you don’t know how to do this, consult the manual for the compatible system or contact the manufacturer for assistance.
Part 2: Put the switch into commissioning mode.
To enter commissioning mode, start by selecting one button on the switch. (Use the same button for the entire
sequence. Pressing any other button will exit the commissioning mode.)
Next, execute the following long-short-long sequence:

1. Press and hold the selected button for more than 7 seconds before releasing it
2. Press the selected button quickly (hold for less than 2 seconds)
3. Press and hold the selected button again for more than 7 seconds before releasing it

The switch has now entered commissioning mode.
Part 3: Linking the switch to the compatible system.

• A radio signal needs to be sent from the switch to the compatible system on the correct ZigBee channel. The system uses one of sixteen possible channels, automatically set by the system. Using the switch, a signal will be sent on each channel until the channel used by the compatible system is found. Upon entering commissioning mode, the switch sends a signal on the currently selected channel. The signal is sent on the default channel 11, unless the switch had been put on another channel previously. (This allows linking additional devices without changing the currently used radio channel.)

Here is a chart of the ZigBee channels and the corresponding radio frequencies (in MHz).

Cycle through the sixteen channels
To change the switch’s channel, short press the selected switch button (less than 7 seconds) once after entering commissioning mode. This will reset the channel used by the switch to channel 11. If the switch was already operating on channel 11 (default condition) then the radio channel will remain unchanged. This ensures that the switch will always use channel 11 as the starting point for the channel adjustment.
Short press the selected button (less than 7 seconds) again to move to
the next channel. For each such button press, the switch transmits on the next channel. If channel 26 has been reached then channel 11 will be used next.
When the switch is on the correct channel, the compatible system will
provide a link confirmation indication. Consult the instructions for the compatible system for details of the link confirmation indication. There should be a visible or audible exchange indicated on the system, and the switch will be linked to the system.
Exit the linking mode on the switch by pressing any other button on the switch.
For problems with the compatible system, please contact the system provider.

Troubleshooting

in the proper orientation
The linked device does not respond to wireless messages| • Check for the environment or range issues

• Verify the device is linked

• Check the transceiver connection and the wiring for errors

• Check if appropriate devices are linked according to good system planning
