Introduction: Thank you for our 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 w installed lighting fixtures. The switch has been optimized for use with incandescent lighting.
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. Sims 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 io select channel “A” or “B". You may find that one of these channels will cause less interference than the other.

To change color of the switch 1. 2. 3. Lift the Air Gap tab at the base of the cover. Push side tabs in on one side and then the other fo release cover. Lift the cover up and off. Simply put the new cover onto the switch by inserting the air gap and side tabs and snapping securely into place.
Please consult an electrician if you have trouble identifying the type of wiring circuit you wish to convert or if vou 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 (1000W) 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. 8. Connect the black wire that comes from the electrical service panel (Hot) to the terminal marked LINE. Note: UL specifies that the tightening tongue for the screws is 14 Kg-om (12 I bf-in). 10. Connect the white neutral wire 10 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 io 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.
Alr Gap Switch During normal operation, there is a small amount of power passing through the switch to the load even when the switch is turned off. The dimmer switch 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 io 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.
Manual Control The dimmer switch allows the user fo: Turn ON/OFF and control the brightness level of the connected lighting. = To turn the connected lighting ON: Tap the top of the rocker. = To tum the connected lighting OFF: Tap the bottom of the rocker. = To brighten the connected lighting: Press and hold the top of the rocker; release when desired level is achieved. «To dim the connected lighting; Press and hold the bottom of the rocker release when desired level is achieved.
« Once the switch is part of the network, the same basic procedure is used io add the switch io groups & scenes or change advanced functions. Refer io the primary controller's instructions for details. Mote: After a power failure, the dimmer switch will default io OFF LED indicator The LED will be lit when the connected lighting is OFF.
1. will respond to ALL ON and the ALL OFF command (default). i will not respond to ALL ON or ALL OFF commands. 3. hill respond to the ALL OFF command but will not respond to the ALL ON command. 4, twill respond fo the ALL ON command but will not respond to the ALL OFF command. nN LED When shipped from the factory, the LED is set to turn ON when the connected light is med OFF. This allows the LED to indicate the switch’s location in a dark room.
