WIRING: READ IT

CHECK THE LOAD: lights only (150W for LED’s, 600W for incande-scent), DON’T CONNECT THIS SWITCH TO OUTLETS OR TUBE LIGHTS.
POWER OFF: turn the circuit power off in the breaker panel before you start. If installing in a multi-switch box with multiple circuits, turn power off at all of the circuits.
CHECK THE WIRES: mark load (most oen black), line (most oen black), neutral (most oen white), and ground (most oen bare). 14 AWG wires only! Don’t rely exclusively on your multimeter to identify the wires!
NOT SURE WHAT YOU’RE SEEING? WE’LL HELP! SUPPORT.GETZOOZ.COM SEND US PICTURES OF YOUR SET-UP, BEFORE YOU DISCONNECT WIRES.
REMOVE THE OLD SWITCH: disconnect the wires and label them with the included label stickers.
CONNECT THE Z-WAVE SWITCH: follow all installation steps carefully. Wire the switch EXACTLY like in the diagram

ZEN76 WIRING DIAGRAM FOR SINGLE POLE INSTALLATION

Insert the ground (bare) wire into the Ground terminal (not shown in the diagram
Insert the power source wire to Line terminal and load wire to Load terminal. Load and line CAN’T be swapped so make sure you identified them correctly!
Run the white jumper (included in the box) from the bundle of white wires to the Neutral terminal

SEE BACK PAGE FOR 3-WAY & 4-WAY DIAGRAMS AND INSTRUCTIONS

DON’T FORCE THE SCREWS. Look up to see how to install the wires correctly.

HOW TO INSTALL THE WIRES

UNSCREW: carefully turn the screw counter clockwise to make space for the wire. DO NOT unscrew completely.
PRESS DOWN: once it’s loose, press the screw down with your finger so it catches the thread.
INSERT WIRE: make sure the wire is perfectly straight, then insert it into the terminal while holding the screw down. DO NOT wrap wires around the terminal screws!
TIGHTEN: turn the screw clockwise to tighten the wire. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN!

COMPLETE INSTALLATION

Secure your Z-Wave switch in the box with mounting screws, handling the wires with care.

Install the wall plate and restore power to the circuit.

TEST THE SWITCH

The LED indicator should light up as soon as you turn the power back on if the switch (light) is OFF. Tap the upper paddle for ON and lower paddle for OFF. If the test fails, please check that:

power is fully restored to the circuit
wiring matches the instructions exactly
the load isn’t too large and overheating the switch causing it to shut of.

TROUBLESHOOTING

The switch won’t add to your system? Try this:

Initiate EXCLUSION and tap the lower paddle 3 times quickly.
Tap the upper paddle 4-5 times quickly when adding it.
Bring the gateway controller (hub) closer to the switch, it may be out of range.
Get troubleshooting tips for your hub at www.support.getzooz.com

The switch won’t control the lights manually anymore? Try this:

Turn the power off at the breaker and check if a wire didn’t get loose.
Exclude the switch from the hub or reset it in case manual control was accidentally disabled.
The load may be incompatible so try it with a single incandescent bulb.

EXCLUSION (REMOVING / UNPAIRING DEVICE)

Bring your Z-Wave gateway (hub) close to the switch if possible
Put the Z-Wave hub into exclusion mode (not sure how to do that? ask@getzooz.com)
Tap the lower paddle on the switch 3 times quickly (the LED indicator will start blinking blue)
Your hub will confirm exclusion, the LED indicator on the switch will turn green for 3 seconds, and the device will disappear from your controller’s device list

FACTORY RESET

If your primary controller is missing or inoperable, you may need to reset the device to factory settings. To reset the switch, press and hold the lower paddle for 10 seconds until the LED indicator starts blinking. Release paddle, and immediately aer, tap the lower paddle 5 times to complete the reset. The LED indicator will flash blue 3 times and turn red for 3 seconds to confirm successful reset.

NOTE: All previously recorded activity and custom settings will be erased from the device’s memory.

ADVANCED SETTINGS

ASSOCIATION

This on/off switch supports Group 1 with up to 1 devices for lifeline communication and Group 2 with up to 5 devices. This device will send BASIC REPORT to Group 1 and BASIC SET command to group 2 when operated manually. You can set direct association to have the switch control another Z-Wave device independently of the hub by using Group 2. Not every hub exposes direct association settings in the interface so please go to www.support.getzooz.com to see if your system allows for direct association.

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. This product features the latest Security 2 (S2) framework to remove smart home network hacking risks. This device is equipped with a unique authentication code for trusted wireless communication.

This is an ETL certified device. ETL, just like UL, is a Nationally Recognized Testing Laboratory. The ETL mark is proof of product compliance with North American safety standards.

Wiring diagram

STOP

Wire and screw position, as well as color codes are for illustration only. You should not follow the colors and positioning in the illustration blindly. Always identify all wires prior to installing Zooz switches and make sure you can match the diagrams to your set-up exactly. Don’t experiment or attempt a “trial-and-error” installation for your own safety.

NOTE

If you are not comfortable identifying the wiring and completing the installation, please consult a licensed electrician. Make sure you have identified all wiring correctly before connecting the switch. If your wiring doesn’t match any of the below diagrams, contact our support: ask@getzooz.com

ON/OFF SWITCHES ONLY

Do not connect Zooz Z-Wave switches to an existing 3-way dimmer, illuminated switch, or an electronic add-on switch. Zooz switches can only be wired with mechanical on/off switches in a 3- way or 4-way setting!
To simplify the diagrams, we did not include connections for the ground wire. Remember that all Zooz switches need to be wired according to the electrical code, with ground wire connected to the ground terminal.

Always install your Zooz S2 switch in the box with direct connection to power line. Diagrams and instructions in this manual are for ZEN76 and ZEN77 models ONLY!

RANGE TEST TOOL

You can now easily check if the switch is within your Z-Wave hub’s range:
Press and hold the lower paddle for 10 seconds until the LED indicator starts blinking. Release the paddle and within 2 seconds, tap the lower paddle 2 times quickly. The LED indicator will then report signal strength.
Solid green = direct communication with the primary controller is stable
Flashing green = direct communication with the primary controller is established but signal is weak
Solid blue = stable communication with hub via repeaters
Flashing blue = communication with the primary controller is established via repeaters but signal is weak
Solid red = communication with the primary controller has failed Tap the lower paddle to exit testing mode.

NOTE: This function may only be activated once the switch has been included to a Z-Wave network.
