Honeywell In-Wall Switch (Toggle)

Quickstart

This is an On/Off Power Switch for U.S. / Canada / Mexico. Connect it to your mains power supply to operate. To add this device to your Z-Wave network, follow these steps:

1. Follow the instructions for your Z-Wave certified controller to include a device to the Z-Wave network.
2. Once the controller is ready to include your device, press up and release on the toggle to include it in the network.
3. Once your controller has confirmed that the device has been included, refresh the Z-Wave network to optimize performance.

What is Z-Wave?

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. For more information about frequency regulations, please refer to the frequency coverage overview at Sigma Designs Website.

Z-Wave ensures reliable communication through two-way confirmation of every message. Every mains-powered node can act as a repeater for other nodes, creating a meshed network that extends range even when a receiver is not in direct wireless range of the transmitter.

This device and any other certified Z-Wave device can be used together, regardless of brand and origin, as long as they operate on the same frequency range. If a device supports secure communication, it will communicate securely with other devices if they provide the same or a higher level of security. Otherwise, it will automatically revert to a lower security level for backward compatibility.

Product Description

Transform any home into a smart home with the Honeywell Z-Wave Toggle Switch. This In-Wall Toggle Switch easily replaces any standard in-wall switch and remotely controls a light in your home. It offers ultimate flexibility, capable of being used by itself or with up to four add-on switches. Screw terminal installation provides improved space efficiency when replacing existing switches. The integrated LED indicator light allows you to easily locate the switch in a dark room.

The Honeywell Z-Wave In-Wall Toggle Switch is compatible with any Z-Wave certified gateway, providing access to many popular home automation systems. Take control of your home lighting with Honeywell Z-Wave Smart Controls!

Prepare for Installation / Reset

Please read the user manual before installing the product.

To include (add) a Z-Wave device to a network, it must be in a factory default state. Ensure the device is reset to factory default by performing an Exclusion operation as described below. Every Z-Wave controller can perform this operation; however, it is recommended to use the primary controller of the previous network to ensure the device is properly excluded.

Reset to factory default

This device can also be reset without a Z-Wave controller. This procedure should only be used when the primary controller is inoperable.

1. Quickly press the ON (up) toggle 3 times, then immediately press the OFF (down) toggle 3 times. Note: This should only be used if your network's primary controller is missing or otherwise inoperable.

Safety Warning for Mains Powered Devices

ATTENTION: Only authorized technicians, considering country-specific installation guidelines/norms, may perform work with mains power. Prior to assembly, the voltage network must be switched off and secured against re-switching.

Inclusion/Exclusion

On factory default, the device does not belong to any Z-Wave network. It needs to be added to an existing wireless network to communicate with other devices on that network. This process is called Inclusion.

Devices can also be removed from a network, a process called Exclusion. Both processes are initiated by the primary controller of the Z-Wave network, which is put into inclusion or exclusion mode. Inclusion and Exclusion are then performed by a special manual action on the device itself.

Inclusion

1. Follow the instructions for your Z-Wave certified controller to include a device to the Z-Wave network.
2. Once the controller is ready to include your device, press up and release on the toggle to include it in the network.
3. Once your controller has confirmed that the device has been included, refresh the Z-Wave network to optimize performance.

Exclusion

1. Follow the instructions for your Z-Wave certified controller to exclude a device from the Z-Wave network.
2. Once the controller is ready to exclude your device, press up and release on the toggle to exclude it from the network.

Quick troubleshooting

Here are a few hints for network installation if things don't work as expected:

• Make sure a device is in factory reset state before including. If in doubt, exclude before including.
• If inclusion still fails, check if both devices use the same frequency.
• Remove all dead devices from associations. Otherwise, you will experience severe delays.
• Never use sleeping battery devices without a central controller.
• Do not poll FLIRS devices.
• Ensure there are enough mains-powered devices to benefit from the meshing capabilities.

Association - one device controls another device

Z-Wave devices can control other Z-Wave devices. This relationship is called association. To control a different device, the controlling device maintains a list of devices that will receive controlling commands. These lists are called association groups and are related to specific events (e.g., button pressed, sensor triggers). When an event occurs, all devices stored in the respective association group receive the same wireless command, typically a 'Basic Set' Command.

Association Groups:

Configuration Parameters

Z-Wave products are designed to work out of the box after inclusion. However, certain configurations can adapt the function to user needs or unlock further enhanced features.

IMPORTANT: Controllers may only allow configuring signed values. 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, you may need to set a value of 200 minus 256 = -56. For two-byte values, the same logic applies: values greater than 32768 may need to be given as negative values.

Parameter 4: Invert Switch

If the switch is accidentally installed upside down with the ON position at the bottom and OFF at the top, the default ON/OFF rocker settings can be reversed by changing parameter 4's value to 1.

Explanation of Z-Wave specific terms

• Controller: A Z-Wave device with capabilities to manage the network. Controllers are typically Gateways, Remote Controls, or battery-operated wall controllers.
• Slave: A Z-Wave device without capabilities to manage the network. Slaves can be sensors, actuators, or even remote controls.
• Primary Controller: The central organizer of the network. It must be a controller. There can only be one primary controller in a Z-Wave network.
• Inclusion: The process of adding new Z-Wave devices into a network.
• Exclusion: The process of removing Z-Wave devices from the network.
• Association: A control relationship between a controlling device and a controlled device.
• Wakeup Notification: A special wireless message issued by a Z-Wave device to announce that it is able to communicate.
• Node Information Frame: A special wireless message issued by a Z-Wave device to announce its capabilities and functions.
