ASCOT Z-Wave® Certified Wireless Lighting Control On/Off/Dim Dimmer Switch 5 45742 45762 (ZW3004) Made in China
Introduction: Thank you for your purchase of a Ascot Z-Wave® control device. Z-Wave technology is designed to automate lighting/home control and provide easy remote operation of all your Z-Wave enabled devices. The Ascot Z-Wave product family includes a variety of devices to control lighting in your home. you whether you want to control one room or your entire house and whether you want to do it all now or start with one room and add more over time.
A CAUTION This device is intended for installation in accordance with the National Electric Code and local regulations in the United States, or the Canadian Electrical Code and local regulations in Canada. If you are unsure or uncomfortable about performing this installation consult a qualified electrician. This switch is designed for use with permanently installed lighting fixtures. The switch has been optimized for use with incandescent lighting as well as with most dilemma CFL and LED bulbs.
RISK OF FIRE RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK RISK OF BURNS Controlling Appliances: Exercise extreme caution when using Z-Wave devices to control appliances. Operation of the Z-Wave device may be in a different room than the controlled appliance, also an unintentional activation may occur if the wrong button on the remote is pressed. Z-Wave devices may automatically be powered on due to timed event programming.
Wireless Range This device complies with the Z-Wave standard of open air, line of sight transmission distances of 65 feet. Actual performance in a home depends on the number of walls between the remote controller and the destination device, the type of construction and the number of Z-Wave enabled devices installed in the control network. Every Z-Wave enabled device acts as a signal repeater and multiple devices result in more possible transmission routes which helps eliminate “RF dead-spots”.
Effects of Home Construction on Wireless Range Between Z-Wave Enabled Devices. Note: The distances shown in the table below are typical examples. Actual performance in your home will vary.
Please Note: Z-Wave home control networks are designed to work properly alongside 802.11 wireless computer networks, Bluetooth and 2.4GHz, 5.8GHz or SECT devices. Some baby cams, wireless video devices and older cordless phones using the 900MHz frequency range may cause interference and limit Z-Wave functionality. Many 900MHz products have a switch to select channel “A” or “B”. You may find that one of these channels will cause less interference than the other.

Please consult an electrician if you have trouble identifying the type of wiring circuit you wish to convert or if you do not feel confident in your ability to convert the circuit to Z-Wave control. INSTALLATION This dimmer switch may be used in new installations or to replace an existing wall switch.

Single, Dual and Triple Gang Boxes The metal plate surrounding the switch assembly is a heat sink. The maximum load rating (600W) is provided when installed in a single gang box with the full heat sink. Multiple dimmer switches may be installed in dual or triple gang boxes and, if necessary, one or both sides of the heat sink may be removed by bending it at the score lines. There is a corresponding reduction in the switch’s load rating when ganged.
A WARNING SHOCK HAZARD! Turn OFF the power to the branch circuit at the circuit breaker in your electrical service panel. Ensure power is OFF before you install this device. All wiring connections must be made with the POWER OFF to avoid personal injury and/or damage to the switch. 1. Shut off power to the circuit at fuse box or 15A circuit breaker. 2. Remove wall plate. ! Warning: Verify power is OFF to switch box before continuing. 3. Remove the switch mounting screws. 4.
8. Connect the black wire that goes to the light to the terminal marked LOAD. 9. Connect the black wire that comes from the electrical service panel (Hot) to the terminal marked LINE. Note: UL specifies that the tightening torque for the screws is 14 Kg-cm (12 I bf-in). 10.Connect the white neutral wire to the terminal marked NEUTRAL. 11. OPTIONAL for 3 or 4-way control: Connect the Traveler wire (usually Red) to the screw terminal marked TRAVELER.
b. Ground. ¢. Neutral. 2. DO NOT connect the auxiliary switch to the home’s black Hot (Line) wire. Observe Important Wiring Information Important: This switch is rated for and intended to only be used with copper wire. The home's electrical wires may be attached to the screw terminals or inserted into the holes in the back of the switch enclosure and clamped in place by tightening the screw terminals. Always follow the recommended wire strip lengths when making wiring connections.
is turned off. The has an air gap switch on the lower left side (see diagram for location) to completely disconnect power to the load. Pull the air gap switch OUT to disconnect the power while replacing light bulbs and push it all the way back in for normal operation. The air gap switch must be all the way in for the switch to function and control the lighting.
release when desired level is achieved. + To dim the connected lighting; Press and hold the toggle upwards; release when desired level is achieved. Please note: holding the toggle until the light intensity is at the minimum setting does not turn the power OFF; you must still tap (press & release) the toggle downwards to turn the power OFF. * When OFF, holding the toggle downwards will cause the lighting to go to the minimum dim level.
of the rocker release when desired level is achieved. Please note: pressing and holding the rocker until the light intensity is at the minimum setting does not turn the power OFF; you must still tap (press & release) the bottom of the rocker to turn the power OFF. * When OFF, pressing and holding the bottom of the rocker will cause the lighting to go to the minimum dim level. Program your Light Switch (Include or exclude the switch to/from the Z-Wave home control network.
(see Advanced Operation below) ADVANCED OPERATION The following Advanced Operation parameters require that you have an advanced controller like the Ascot model 45601 LCD remote. Advanced remotes from other manufacturers may also be able to change these settings; however, basic remotes do not have this capability. All On/All Off Depending upon your primary controller, the dimmer switch can be set to respond to ALL ON and ALL OFF commands in up to four different ways.
« Parameter No: 3 * Length: 1 Byte + Valid Values (default 0) Invert Switch If the switch is accidentally installed upside down with “On” 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”. + Parameter No: 4 * Length: 1 Byte * Valid Values (default 0) Dim Rate Adjustments Both the number of steps (or levels) that the dimmer will change and the timing of the steps can be modified to suit personal preferences.
