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.

This is a wall plug dimmer that can be placed between a British Standard wall outlet and electric devices, plugged in by cord. It can dim all incandescent lights, high voltage halogen lamps and transformers operated low voltage lamps without any restriction. Special optimization functions support the dimming of the majority of dimmable LED lights and Compact Fluorescent Lights (CFLs). The device is IP20 rated and can therefore only be used in dry environments. The device offers a Baby-Dim Function which dims down a lamp from a defined level into another defined level in a longer but also definable period (e.g. 20 minutes). An automatic Light-Off function and programmable dimming and switching behavior makes the device a very flexible tool for inhouse lighting.
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.
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.
The plug can be plugged into every British Standard wall outlet (Plug Type G). It is IP20 rated and can therefore only be used in dry environments. Do not locate the device facing direct sunlight, humid or dusty place. The suitable ambient temperature for the device is 0°C ~ 40°C. Plugs must not be stacked and operated.
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 and Exclusion are confirmed by a tripple click of the button.
Inclusion and Exclusion are confirmed by a tripple click of the button.
The device is able to dim electric loads up to 300 W. The device can be dimmed wirelessly or using the local button.
Local Operation
The local button has the following functions:
The behavior of the button can be configured.
LED Usage
The device has one blue LED used to indicate status information. The behavior of the blue LED can be configured:
Automated Dimming Function
If activated the dimmer will turn off automatically after a defined time. This function is particularly useful if the dimmer is turned on using a motion detector of any other type of sensor. In this case it"s possible to further define the reaction of the dimmer on certain signals sent from a sensor. This allowes a very flexible application of the dimmer in the house.
Baby Sleeping Function
The device can be used to help babies and little children to find sleep. (It"s save to use the device in childrens rooms or closed to their beds due to the special shutter function that shield the high voltage from touching). When enabled a double click of the button will turn the light into a definable level and then it will gradually dim down over time. The time of dimming and the target dimming state - e.g. off - can be configured as well.
Dimming LEDs and CFLs
LEDs and Compact Flouroscent lights are complicated to dim for two reasons:
There are special LEDs or CFLs that claim to be dimable however almost none of them can be dimmed in the full range of 0% to 100%. Some will flicker at very low dimming level or sometimes on 100% dimming. This flickering is not only annoying but also destroys the lighting device. This dimmer allows to set a lower (configuration parameter 17) and a higher (configuration parameter 18) border for dimming and surpress the dimming levels that are not supported by the device. On default the dimmer will dim between 0% and 100%. If you see problems at certain dimming levels, detect the dimming level at your controlling gateway (reading the dimming value) and change the configuration so that this dimming level will not reached anymore. The extreme case would be to only support 0% (off) and full diming level (on). This function is supported by all lights regardless of the technology. In this mode it is recommended to set the fast dimming speed to 0 (Instantly) using configuration parameter no. 5.
Advanced Options for LED and CFL tweakings
The configuration parameters No 51 - 54 allow to configure the dimming behavior on a very technical level. Do not touch these values unless you know what you do! A dimmer is controlled by the Zero Crossing signal and the TRIAC Fire pulse. The TRIAC fires every half sine wave max one time. A fire cycles starts with the Zero Crosssing and then lasts 156 pulse length increments. The value #51 defines the minimum time after zero crossing because the Triac can fire regardless of the dimming level. Parameter #54 defines whether the fire pulse has defines length (short) or is extended as long as allowed by the minimum start value in parameter #54 and the minimum trailing value defines by #53. This value defines the minimum time the pulse will not be active because of the next zero crossing signal.
Here are a few hints for network installation if things dont work as expected.
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.
Group Number | Maximum Nodes | Description |
---|---|---|
1 | 5 | Send Reports on blind state change |
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.
