Installation

Wiring Instructions

  1. Turn OFF Power: Before beginning, ensure power is disconnected at the circuit breaker or fuse box for the switch location.
  2. Remove Old Switch: Carefully remove the existing wallplate and switch.
  3. Identify Wires: Identify the following wires:
    • Line (Hot): Connects to the electrical panel.
    • Load: Connects to the light fixture.
    • Neutral: Required for smart dimmers.
    • Ground: Safety wire.
    • Traveler (for 3-way installations): Connects to the add-on switch.

    Note: The SimpleWire technology automatically detects Line and Load wires, simplifying this step.

  4. Connect Wires:
    • Connect the ground wire to the dimmer's ground terminal (green). The dimmer features dual, offset ground ports for convenience.
    • Connect the neutral wire to the dimmer's neutral terminal (white).
    • Connect the line and load wires to the dimmer's line/load terminals (black). SimpleWire will automatically configure them.
    • For 3-way installations, connect the traveler wire to the dimmer's traveler terminal (yellow).
  5. Secure Dimmer: Carefully push the wired dimmer into the electrical box. Secure it with the provided screws.
  6. Install Wallplate: Attach the new wallplate (sold separately).
  7. Restore Power: Turn power back ON at the circuit breaker.

Setup (Z-Wave Pairing)

The UltraPro 700 Series Dimmer supports Z-Wave Plus 700 series features, including SmartStart for easy pairing and S2 security for enhanced protection.

SmartStart Inclusion

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

  • Locate the QR code on the dimmer or its packaging.
  • Open your Z-Wave hub's app and select the option to add a new device using SmartStart or by scanning a QR code.
  • Scan the QR code. The dimmer will automatically pair with your hub.

Manual Inclusion (Traditional Pairing)

  1. Place your Z-Wave hub into inclusion (pairing) mode. Refer to your hub's instruction manual for specific steps.
  2. On the dimmer, press the top or bottom rocker switch once. The LED indicator will flash to confirm inclusion mode.
  3. The hub will confirm successful pairing. The dimmer's LED will stop flashing and may turn solid.

Exclusion (Removing from Z-Wave Network)

  1. Place your Z-Wave hub into exclusion (unpairing) mode. Refer to your hub's instruction manual for specific steps.
  2. On the dimmer, press the top or bottom rocker switch once. The LED indicator will flash to confirm exclusion mode.
  3. The hub will confirm successful exclusion. The dimmer's LED will stop flashing.

Note: To perform a factory reset, pull the air gap switch (located at the bottom of the dimmer) out, then push it back in while holding the bottom rocker switch for 10 seconds. The LED will flash rapidly to confirm reset. This should only be used when the primary controller is missing or inoperable.

Operation

Manual Control

  • Turn ON/OFF: Press the top of the rocker to turn lights ON. Press the bottom of the rocker to turn lights OFF.
  • Dim/Brighten: Press and hold the top of the rocker to gradually brighten lights. Press and hold the bottom of the rocker to gradually dim lights. Release the rocker when the desired brightness is reached.

Smart Control (via Z-Wave Hub)

Once paired with a Z-Wave hub, you can control the dimmer remotely using the hub's mobile application or web interface. This includes:

  • Turning lights ON/OFF.
  • Adjusting brightness levels.
  • Creating schedules for automated lighting.
  • Integrating into custom scenes and automations.
