LT-3200 Switch

Thank you for purchasing the URC LT-3200 Switch!
This quick setup manual will help you plan and install your Z-Wave lighting solution.
This product can be operated in any Z-Wave network with other ZWave certified devices from other manufacturers. All mains operated nodes within the network will act as repeaters regardless of vendor to increase the reliability of the network.

LT-3200 Switch

A. Config Button: This button is used to enter the configuration menu on your switch. When you hold it down for 10-15 seconds, the LED Bar (B) will light up Yellow to indicate you are in config mode. It can also be used to trigger a favorite scene. After setting up the scene, tap the button one time to trigger it.
B. RGB LED Notification Bar: This LED bar serves as a visual display for whether your lights are on or off and offers visual notifications based on events that are setup via the Gateway. It can be further configured, disabling or setting certain brightness levels.
C. Responsive Paddle: The paddle works in a similar manner to a standard switch. Pressing up will turn the light on while pressing down will turn the light off. The switch can be tapped up or down 1-5 times to trigger a specific scene.
D. Air Gap Switch: This will cut the power to the load your switch is wired to.

Including A Switch

Below are the steps for including (pairing) a switch to a Gateway.

Plan, Prep, and Install:

Locate an area to install the switch that is within a recommended distance from the Gateway.
Walls, ceilings, and even furniture may degrade communication between devices.
Remember to turn off the power prior to installation.
Check the signal range by holding the config button for 5-10 seconds. [ Green = Good Signal / Red = Poor Signal ]
Including to the Network:
Start the inclusion process with the programming software.
Once started, press the config button on the switch three times and the LED Bar will flash blue. If included successfully, the bar will turn green. If it turns red, the inclusion process failed.
Switch Not Including? Try an Exclusion:
Start the exclusion process from the programming software.
Once started, press the config button on the switch three times. The LED Bar will turn Green if excluded successfully.

Z-Wave Network

Z-Wave can be used with a few devices or it can be used to build a large network. Below you’ll see two examples. In the first example, a user has a Gateway that is looking for Z-Wave devices within its radius. Z-Wave devices outside this radius will not be found and need to either be moved within the radius or use a repeating device to reach it. The second example shows how a repeater can be used to reach a device outside of the initial radius. Keep this in mind when building your own network and make sure to use the range estimator below.

Security 2 DSK

The DSK can be found on the front of the switch (metal plate) and inside the box.

Switch Configuration Settings

There are a couple of ways to configure a switch. The first is via the switch itself, while the second is via programming software.

Parameter #| # Of Config Button

Presses

| About| Description
---|---|---|---
1| 1| Power-On State| Default power state the switch will revert to after power loss.
2| 2| Invert Switch| Inverts the switch.
5| 3| LED Indicator Color| Sets the default color of the LED Bar.
6| 4| LED Indicator Intensity| Sets the intensity of the LED Bar.
7| 5| LED Indicator Intensity (When Off)| The intensity of the LED Bar when the switch is off.

Configuration Logic

To enter configuration mode, hold down the Config Button (A) for 10-15 seconds and the LED Bar (B) will light up yellow.
Once your parameter has been selected, the LED Bar (B) will blink yellow. Now press up or down on the paddle to adjust the parameter settings to your liking.
Finally, once you’ve settled on customization, it’s time to save the configuration settings. Hold the Config Button (A)for 10 seconds and the LED Bar (B) will then blink to confirm the settings were saved.

SmartStart

SmartStart enabled products can be added into a Z-Wave network by scanning the Z-Wave QR Code present on the product with a controller providing SmartStart inclusion. No further action is required and the SmartStart product will be added automatically within 10 minutes of being switched on in the network vicinity.\
