Precautions
CAUTION
HAZARD OF UNINTENDED USE
This device is intended to be used for non-critical automation activities. It
is not intended to support life, safety, or medical equipment.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in personal injury or
equipment damage.
DANGER
HAZARD OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, EXPLOSION, OR ARC FLASH
- Apply appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) and follow safe electrical work practices. See NFPA 70E, NOM-029-STPS or CSA Z462 or local equivalent.
- This equipment must only be installed and serviced by qualified electrical personnel.
- Turn off all power supplying this equipment before working on or inside equipment.
- Always use a properly rated voltage sensing device to confirm power is off.
- Use with copper wire only.
- Indoor use only.
- Replace all devices, doors, and covers before turning on power to this equipment.
Failure to follow these instructions will result in death or serious injury.
WARNING
HAZARD OF HEAT AND FIRE DAMAGE
Read all instructions before installation. The manufacturer will not be held
responsible for product damage resulting from not following the instructions.
- Wet hands are strictly prohibited.
- Do not continue working after self-disassembly of any nature and damage of external forces.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, injury or equipment damage.
WARNING : This product can expose you to chemicals including Carbon black, which is known to the State of California to cause cancer, and Bisphenol A (BPA), which is known to the State of California to cause birth defects or other reproductive harm. For more information go to www.P65Warnings.ca.gov.
Wireless Range Conditions
The wireless range is the effective distance of remote control and it will be impacted by the following conditions:
- Each wall or obstacle (e.g., refrigerator, TV, etc.) between the remote or ZWave device and the destination device will reduce the wireless range.
- Brick, tile, or concrete walls block more of the wireless signal than walls made of wooden studs and plasterboard (drywall).
- The angle of direction between the remote or Z-Wave device and the destination device will also impact the wireless range; normally, placing the ZWave devices face-to-face will get the best wireless range.
- Wall-mounted Z-Wave devices installed in metal junction boxes may suffer a significant loss of range since the metal box blocks a large part of the wireless signal.
Installation
-
Turn the power OFF at circuit breaker or fuse and test that power is off before wiring.
-
Wire the device according to the wiring diagram (Figure 1).
-
Check that all connections are tight and no bare wires exposed.
-
Install the device into the standard outlet box using the screws provided.
-
Install the plate (not included) (Figure 2).
-
Restore power. Figure

Operation
The remote switch can only control other Z-Wave devices after it is added into a Z-Wave network.
Figure 3: Operation
-
Inclusion in a Z-Wave network:
NOTE : The device supports S2-authenticated and S2-unauthenticated inclusion method. It is highly recommended to only select S2-authenticated or the highest inclusion method and deselect other methods. This ensures the highest security level during Z-Wave service. During S2-authenticated inclusion, users may be asked to scan the QR code or enter a 5-digit pin code attached on the device.
A. SmartStart inclusion: The feature assumes the gateway has implemented SmartStart. Users could use the APP of the gateway or the gateway camera to scan the QR code on device or on the enclosed label inside the package before powering on the device, and then when the device is powered on, it shall be automatically added to the gateway.
B. Manual inclusion (Figure 4): When the gateway is in adding mode (please refer to the instruction of the Z-Wave gateway for the operations on gateway itself), quick click the upper paddle or lower paddle 3 times within 1.5 seconds.
Note : Please do not power cycle the device during the inclusion process. -
Exclusion from a Z-Wave network (Figure 4):
When the gateway is in removing mode (please refer to the instruction of the Z-Wave gateway for the operations on gateway itself), quick click the upper paddle or lower paddle 3 times within 1.5 seconds.
Figure 4: Join or Leave the Z-Wave Network
-
Group control the nodes of association group 2 (Figure 5):
– One short tap on upper paddle: turn on the grouped Z-Wave switch / dimmer devices
– One short tap on lower paddle: turn off the grouped Z-Wave switch / dimmer devices
NOTE : – Please refer to association setting for nodes group 2 setup. This requires a gateway with advanced features and assumes the device is included in a network.
Figure 5: Group Control, Association Group 2
-
Group control the nodes of association group 3:
**On/Off control (Figure 6):
** – One short tap on upper paddle: turn on the grouped Z-Wave dimmer devices
to last status
– One short tap on lower paddle: turn off the grouped Z-Wave dimmer devices
Figure 6: Group Control, Association Group 3
Quick to full brightness (Figure 7):
Double taps on any paddle: turn on the lighting to full brightness connected
to the grouped Z-Wave dimmers.
Figure 7: Group Control, Association Group 3, Full Brightness Control
Dimming control (Figure 8):
– Long press on upper paddle: dim up the lighting connected to the grouped
dimmers
– Long press on lower paddle: dim down the lighting connected to the grouped
dimmers
NOTE :
– Please refer to association setting for nodes group 2 setup. This requires a
gateway with advanced features and assumes the device is included in a
network.
– It is recommended to use group dimmer devices in group 3 setup for 3-way
dimming control, as group 2 can only support on/off control
Figure 8: Group Control, Association Group 3, Dimming Control
5. Scene Control :
Different operations on different paddles trigger various scenes set in the
gateway. Please refer to the “Central Scene Capacity” Table.
NOTE: – Please refer to central scene-setting for scenes setup. This requires
a gateway with
advanced features and assumes the device is included in a network.

6. Reset to factory defaults (Figure 10):
Long press the reset button for >20 seconds till the blue LED blink 5 times
within one second.
NOTE :
- Use this procedure only when the Z-Wave gateway is missing or otherwise inoperable.
- Reset the device to factory default settings will set the device to not in Z-Wave network state, delete the association setting and restore the configuration setting to the default.
Figure 10: Reset to Factory Defaults
Advanced Setting
The advanced setting requires an advanced gateway. Basic gateway does not
support this setting. Users can do the setting through the interface of the
advanced gateway.
All configuration parameters can be restored to factory default settings by
the gateway or by manual reset.
