AN184 Z-Wave Metering Mini Plug
The Metering Plug is a Z-Wave Plus enabled device which is fully compatible with any Z-Wave enabled
network. Inclusion of this unit on other manufacturer’s Z-Wave Wireless Controller menu allows remote
operation of the unit and the connected load.
This product supports the S2 security protocol that uses encrypted Z-Wave Plus messages to communicate
to other security-enabled Z-Wave Plus products. A security-enabled Z-Wave Plus Controller must be used in
order to fully utilize the security features of this product.
The Metering Plug is designed to turn on/off the appliances in your house. Its metering function can measure
electricity usage in KW/hr and supports individual measurements of wattage, voltage, current and Power
Factor. As a safety feature, if any power overload is detected it will instantly switch off the connected
appliance to protect from electrical hazard.
WARNING:
CAUTION Read operator’s manual
For safety concerns:
- Do not connect appliances to this remote controlled socket-outlet if the instruction manual of the
appliances prohibits to be remote controlled (for example appliances such as grills, toasters and similar
portable cooking appliances, or portable kitchen appliances, or appliances with heating elements like
ovens or heaters, etc).
- Do not connect any appliances to this remote controlled socket-outlet which are radiating heat and may
cause ignition or burning of surrounding materials (for example radiation heaters, portable heaters,
portable floodlights, desk lamps, etc).
- Take into consideration that connected appliances might be moved by pets, cleaning staff or other persons
who are not aware of the remote control functions.
- Do not connect any appliances with potential hazards by moving parts (for example drills, table saws,
blender, etc).
- The connection/installation of this product should be in a suitable area with the remote controlled
socket-outlet easily readable and accessible for disconnection actions.
- Connected equipment should not cause any hazard to the environment, personnel, other equipment and
property when left unattended.
- The socket outlet on equipment forbids to insert to other equipment of wall plug (Direct Plug-in) or Power
bar.
- The socket outlet only can insert power cord, The direction of power cord is drooping naturally, Power Cord
length needs < 2M.
- The socket-outlet shall be installed near the equipment and shall be easily accessible.
Product Overview

Also acts as Link Key for pairing to Z-wave network
Adding to Z-Wave Network
On the unit you can find a link key which is used to carry out the function of inclusion, exclusion, and reset.
When power is applied for the first time, the LED will flash on and off alternately and repeatedly, implying that
the device has not been paired with other Z-Wave devices yet. This unit supports the Auto Inclusion function
when power is applied and no node ID is stored in the memory.
Auto Inclusion
The module may automatically execute the function of inclusion when ;
1. The power is applied for the first time and no node ID has been stored in the module.
2. The execution of reset is successful where the stored node ID is cleared.
Note: The duration for Auto Inclusion is 30 seconds. Unlike the “inclusion” procedure shown in the table
below, the execution of Auto Inclusion is automatic without the necessity of pressing the link key.

Manual
Inclusion
1. Put the Z-Wave Controller into inclusion mode.
2. Press the link key three times within 1.5 seconds to put
the unit into inclusion mode.
Exclusion
1. Put the Z-Wave Controller into exclusion mode.
2. Press the link key three times within 1.5 seconds to put
the unit into exclusion mode.
Reset
(Use this procedure
only in the event that
the network primary
controller is missing,
or otherwise
inoperable.)
1. Press the link key three times within 1.5 seconds to put
the unit into exclusion mode.
2. Within 1 second of step 1, press link key again and
hold it until LED is off (about 5 seconds).
3. Node ID is excluded. The device reverts to factory
default state and will be in auto-inclusion mode for 25
secs
Ú Failed or successful results in including/excluding the node ID can be viewed on the Controller.

Note: If you are connecting this unit to a Z-wave Controller that utilizes the S2 security protocol, your
controller may ask you to enter a 5 digit Device Specific Key (DSK) that is unique to each unit. This can be
found in one of two places:
- on the QR code label on the back of the unit
- on the insert card inside the packaging
Operation
Under normal operation mode, press the on/off button on the unit to turn on/off the connected load. The unit
can also be controlled by receiving commands from the Z-Wave Controller. When set to on, the LED
indicator will light up for 5 seconds only.
The unit is able to remember the status of the relay when power is cut off (e.g. during a black-out). When
power is supplied again, the unit will resume the last status of the relay (on or off) automatically.
Its metering function can measure electricity usage up to 10485.75kW*h and supports individual wattage,
voltage, ampere, and PF measurements.
In the event an overload is detected at 1600W, the unit will turn off the connected appliance as a safety
measure. When this happens its LED will flash continuously and any command from Z-wave controller to
turn on the connected load will be ignored. To restore normal operation, first remove the connected
appliance and check for any abnormality. Temporarily remove the metering plug from the wall socket and
plug it back in again. Connect back the appliance only after verifying it is fit for use.
Programming
Z-Wave Group Support
The unit supports two association groups with 1 node support for Grouping 1 and 4 nodes support for
Grouping 2. This has the effect that when the unit is operating, all devices associated with the unit will
receive the relevant reports.
z When the unit is powered for the first time, the unit will send a Notification Report to the node of Group 1
(Notification Type=0x08, Event=0x01).
z When setting the unit or changing the unit’s status, the unit will send a Binary Switch Report to the node
of Group 1.
z When performing Reset the unit will send Device Reset Locally Notification to the node of Group1.
z The unit can be configured to periodically report the value of W and/or kW*h to the node of Group 1
(refer to Configuration parameter 4 & 5). The interval time between two reports is at least 30 seconds.
z The unit can be configured to report the status of wattage to the node of Group 1 on special occasions
(refer to Configuration parameter 6 & 7).
z The minimum interval time between two reports sent from this unit to the node of Group 1 is 3 seconds.
Refer to Configuration parameter 2 for more information.
z When the button on the unit or the wall switch is pressed, the unit will send a Basic Set command to the
nodes of Group 2. When the unit is OFF, Basic Set Value = 0x00. When the unit is ON, Basic Set Value =
0xFF.
z When the unit detect an overload condition, it will send a Notification Report to the node of Group 1
(Notification Type=0x08, Event=0x08)
