INTRODUCTION
Leviton’s Vizia RF +
TM
components are designed
to communicate with each other via Radio
Frequency (RF) to provide remote control
of your lighting. Using RF technology allows
Leviton to provide the greatest signal integrity
possible. Each module in Leviton’s Vizia RF +
TM
component line is a Z-Wave
®
enabled device. In
a Z-Wave
®
network, each device is designed to
act as a router. These routers will re-transmit the
RF signal from one device to another until the
intended device is reached. This ensures that
the signal is received by its intended device by
routing the signal around obstacles and radio
dead spots.
CAUTION:
Remember to exercise good common sense
when using the Timer features of your remote,
especially when scheduling unattended devices.
There can be some unexpected consequences if
not used with care. For example, an empty coffee
pot can be remotely turned on. If that should
happen, your coffee pot could be damaged from
overheating. If an electric heater is turned on by
remote control while clothing is draped over it, a
re could result.
