SQR50101**Z Z-Wave™ Plus Remote Dimmer Switch

Features

• Wireless Z-Wave technology creates a mesh network for command and control interoperability with other Z-Wave compliant controllers and devices.
• Works with other Z-Wave switch or dimmer devices for 3-way (multi-location) control, providing manual and remote control.
• The 3-way control can be achieved through two methods: Association group control or Central scene control.
• Child lockout capability.

NOTE: This remote switch is only a wireless controller; it cannot be used by itself for single-pole control.

Specifications

¹ Suitable for at least 90°C.

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 Z-Wave 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 Z-Wave 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

1. Turn the power OFF at circuit breaker or fuse and test that power is off before wiring.
2. Wire the device according to the wiring diagram (Figure 1).
3. Check that all connections are tight and no bare wires exposed.
4. Install the device into the standard outlet box using the screws provided.
5. Install the plate (not included) (Figure 2).
6. Restore power.

Operation

The remote switch can only control other Z-Wave devices after it is added into a Z-Wave network.

Figure 3: Operation

Description: A diagram of the Z-Wave switch showing the On paddle, Off paddle, LED indicator, QR code, Pin code label, and Reset Button.

1. Inclusion to a Z-Wave network:

NOTE: The device supports S2-authenticated and S2-unauthenticated inclusion methods. It is highly recommended to select S2-authenticated or the highest inclusion method and deselect others for the highest security level. During S2-authenticated inclusion, users may be asked to scan the QR code or enter a 5-digit pin code attached to the device.

A. SmartStart inclusion:

This feature assumes the gateway has implemented SmartStart. Users can use the gateway's APP or camera to scan the QR code on the device or enclosed label before powering on. When powered on, the device will be automatically added to the gateway.

B. Manual inclusion (Figure 4):

When the gateway is in adding mode, quickly click the upper paddle or lower paddle 3 times within 1.5 seconds. Refer to the Z-Wave gateway's instructions for gateway operations.

Note: Do not power cycle the device during the inclusion process.

2. Exclusion from a Z-Wave network (Figure 4):

When the gateway is in removing mode, quickly click the upper paddle or lower paddle 3 times within 1.5 seconds. Refer to the Z-Wave gateway's instructions for gateway operations.

Figure 4: Join or Leave the Z-Wave Network

Description: Depicts a Z-Wave device paddle. The text indicates that a quick click of the upper or lower paddle three times within 1.5 seconds is used for joining or leaving the Z-Wave network.

3. 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.

Figure 5: Group Control, Association Group 2

Description: Depicts a Z-Wave Switch/Interrupter Z-Wave and an AUX Switch/Interrupteur auxiliaire. A quick click (x1) on the AUX switch paddle turns the Z-Wave device lighting on. A quick click (x1) on the AUX switch paddle turns the Z-Wave device lighting off.

4. 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

Description: Shows a Z-Wave Dimmer/Gradateur Z-Wave and an AUX Switch/Interrupteur auxiliaire. A short tap on the AUX switch paddle turns the Z-Wave dimmer devices on to their last status. A short tap on the lower paddle turns the Z-Wave dimmer devices off.

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

Description: Illustrates the Z-Wave Dimmer and AUX Switch. Double taps on any paddle turn the connected Z-Wave dimmers on to full brightness.

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

Description: Shows the Z-Wave Dimmer and AUX Switch. A long press on the upper paddle dims the connected lighting up. A long press on the lower paddle dims the connected lighting down.

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.

Central Scene Capacity

6. Reset to factory defaults (Figure 10):

Long press the reset button for >20 seconds till the blue LED blinks 5 times within one second.

NOTE:

• Use this procedure only when the Z-Wave gateway is missing or otherwise inoperable.
• Resetting the device to factory default settings will set the device to a 'not in Z-Wave network' state, delete association settings, and restore configuration settings to the default.

Figure 10: Reset to Factory Defaults

Description: Shows the switch with a reset button. A 'Long Press >20s' indicator points to the reset button, indicating the action to reset to factory defaults.

Advanced Setting

The advanced setting requires an advanced gateway. Basic gateways do not support this setting. Users can perform 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.

Configuration

LED Indication

The LED indicator provides status information:

• Blue LED blinking slowly (once per 3 seconds) for 3 minutes: device not in network.
• LED stays on for 1 minute: device in the network.
• Blue LED blinking once per second: adding/leaving network.
• Blue LED blinks 3 times within one second: signal for releasing the reset button.
• Blue LED blinks 4 times within 2 seconds: start to perform reset process.
• Blue LED blinks quickly (twice per second) for 5 seconds: device received OTA command or OTA fail.
• Blue LED on: The paddle is pressed.
• Blue LED off: The paddle is released.
