ZW38 Smart PLUG-IN APPLIANCE MODULE

Willis’s family of Z-Wave credited wireless lighting controls (switches, dimmers, outlets and

plug-in modules) brings a new level of intelligent wireless capability to commercial and

residential environments.

The Z-Wave wireless protocol is an international wireless standard for remote home automation,

security and other applications. Embedded in each device, the Z-Wave smart chip enables

two-way RF communication among hundreds of Z-Wave enabled devices, allowing products and

services from multiple manufacturers to work seamlessly.

Willis Z-Wave products are easy to install, and allow dealers to create an integrated wireless

network with nearly limitless expansion and interoperability with security and health monitoring

systems, energy management, home entertainment, appliances, and more.

This product supports 40Kbps data transmission. This product can also be used for network

support in systems that stream metadata. An example might include transmission of information

from audio devices such as song title, artist, and album information to various displays around the

home. As part of a Z-Wave network, the ZW38will act as a wireless repeater to insure that

commands intended for another device in the network are received. This is useful when the device

would otherwise be out of the radio range of the wireless controller.

INSTALLATION

Plug this Appliance Module into the wall outlet near the load to be controlled, and plug the load

into the Appliance Module. Make sure the load to be controlled is 10 amps or less.

INCLUDING ZW38TO THE NETWORK

STEP 1. Prepare the Controller to include a unit to the network, by adding it to a group (method of

adding a node to the network). Refer to controller instructions.

STEP 2. The ZW38must be in its permanently installed location. Tap the button on the ZW38once.

STEP 3. You should see an indication on your Controller that the “DEVICE WAS INCLUDED”

in the network.

NOTE: If you have trouble adding the ZW38to a group it may be that the Home ID and Node ID

were not cleared from it after testing. You must ﬁ rst “RESET UNIT” with your controller to

remove it from the network. Although adding it to a group includes it in the network, removing it

from a group does not remove it from the network. If removed from a group, it functions only as a

repeater

BASIC OPERATION

Button (Local Control)

The button on the ZW38allows the user to:

• Turn the attached load on or off.

• Include or exclude the module from the Z-Wave system.

When a controller prompts you to “Send Node ID” or to “Press Button

on Unit”, quickly tap the button once to satisfy those instructions.

• Whenever the ZW38receives a Z-Wave ON command, the ZW38will begin cycling its output relay on and off approximately once per second (1/2 second Off, 1/2 second On) for 20 seconds. • If at any time during that 20 seconds, the ZW38receives a Z-Wave OFF command, the ZW38will stop cycling its output relay and default to ON. • At any time during that 20 seconds, if the ZW38receives a Z-Wave ON command, the ZW38will add an additional 20 seconds on/off cycling of its output relay.

Willis radio controls provide a reliable communications link and fi ll an important need in portable wireless signaling. However, there are some limitations which must be observed. • For U.S. installations only: The radios are required to comply with FCC Rules and Regulations as Part 15 devices. As such, they have limited transmitter power and therefore limited range.
