ZRC-100 (Z-Wave Remote Control) Operating Instructions Introduction The ZRC-100 is a LCD Z-Wave remote controller (Figure 1) and it can work with Z-Wave enabled devices, support multi-channel, thermostat, secure door lock, binary / multi-level sensor command class and controls their on/off or up/down individually, or via a pre-configured Scene and adjust your room temperature. The ZRC-100 give an intelligent LEDs smart guide and LCD display for all setup procedures and operation.
Glossary Device or Node Inclusion Exclusion Remove Z-Wave Network Primary Controller Secondary Controller Inclusion Controller Scene Devices and nodes are all terms to describe an individual ZWave device. These are all interchangeable when setting up your ZWave network. Add a Z-Wave device to the network. Delete a Z-Wave device from the network. To take a device out of a group, scene or association group while that device still exists in the same Z-Wave network.
ZRC-100 Operations Welcome to the world of Z-Wave home automation, your ZRC-100 will be able to control all the Z-Wave products around your house. The following section will guide you through the set up processes for your ZRC-100.

WIRELESS INFORMATION Wireless range: This device has an open air line of sight transmission distance of 100 feet which complies with the Z-Wave standards. Performance can vary depending on the amount of objects in between Z-Wave devices such as walls and furniture. Every Z-Wave device set up in your house will act as a signal repeater allowing devices to talk to each other and find alternate routes in the case of a reception dead spot. Radio frequency limitations: 1. Each wall or object (i.e.
Q A What can the Remotec ZRC-100 do for me? A single Z-Wave network can include 232 nodes. If necessary, more than one network can be bridged to extend the number of nodes further, although this is normally not needed in a residential environment. The total number of controllable End-point (EP) / device / sensor is 128 items which is listed on the “Device” and “Sensor” page. ZRC-100 also supports 6 thermostats which are listed on the “Comfort” page.
Please refer to the target device user manual for more information such as Inclusion / Exclusion and add End Point to a Scene / Group. Q A Why do I need a different module for outdoor lighting? The outdoor module is designed to withstand various weather conditions including heat, rain and snow. Q Can I use 2 or more ZRC-100 controllers in my house at one time? You can use multiple ZRC-100 around your house by assigning one remote to be the primary remote and have an additional secondary controller.
