mesh network is dependent on it knowing its location with respect to other nodes. You cannot “test bench” conﬁ gure this module, then install.

WADWAZ-1 WIRELESS DOOR / WINDOW SENSOR

Linear’s family of Z-Wave™ certiﬁ ed wireless lighting controls (switches,

dimmers, outlets and plug-in modules) and Security devices (alert sounder,

passive infrared sensor and door/window transmitter) 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.

Linear 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.

The WADWAZ-1 sensor monitors a door or window and sends Z-Wave signals

when the door is opened or closed.

For indoor use only. Retain instructions for future use.

INSTALLATION

If installing an entire Z-Wave system for the ﬁ rst time, refer to the installation

guide of the Z-Wave Interface Controller before installing the door/window

sensor.

For “Inclusion” to (adding to) a network:

Refer to your Controller operating instructions to add this module under the

command of the Wireless Controller.

1. Unscrew the screw fastening the rear cover and slide the rear cover down.

2. Insert a CR123A battery into the battery compartment and LED will start to ﬂ ash

slowly, which means the sensor has not yet performed “inclusion” with the Controller.

3. 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 the Controller instructions.

4. If your Controller supports Network Wide Inclusion (NWI) locate the WADWAZ-1 near

the proposed installation location. If not skip to Step 6.

5. With your Controller in Inclusion mode, you should see an indication on your

Controller that the “device was included” in the network. It should display binary

switch / Linear. The LED will stop blinking. Skip to Step 9.

If the LED does not stop blinking, relocate the WADWAZ-1 to within 100 feet (line of

sight) of a Z-Wave device or your hub and repeat Step 5. If the LED continues to blink,

your Controller does not support NWI and continue with Step 6.

6. Place the WADWAZ-1 within 3 feet of the Controller.

7. With your Controller in Inclusion mode, depress the Program switch for 1 second

then release.

8. You should see an indication on your Controller that the “device was included” in the

network. It should display binary switch / Linear. The LED will stop blinking.

9. The device will appear in the list of Switches.

✓ NOTE: If you have trouble adding the WADWAZ-1 to 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 as a repeater (only). “RESET UNIT”

removes it completely from the network.

For “Association” with another device:

The door/window sensor supports one association group with up to 5 nodes.

1. Set up the Z-Wave™ Interface Controller into “association” mode, and following its

instruction to associate the WADWAZ-1 with another device.

2. Open the door/window sensor case to “wake” the unit. In the Controller, associate the

sensor with the other device.

3. Close the door/window sensor case.

For “Exclusion” from (removing from) a network:

1. Set up the Z-Wave™ Interface Controller into “exclusion” mode, and following its

instruction to delete the WADWAZ-1 from the Controller.

2. Press the Program switch of WADWAZ-1 for 1 second and release to be excluded.

The LED light will ﬂ ash continuously when the sensor is in the Exclusion condition.

Mounting INTEROPERABILITY WITH Z-WAVE DEVICES 1. Use the screws or adhesive tape to attach the rear cover to the frame along the opening edge of the door or window. 2. Attach the magnet to the door or window adjacent to the marks on the sensor (see illustration) BE SURE THE MAGNET IS NO FURTHER THAN 3/4” FROM THE SENSOR WHEN THE DOOR OR WINDOW IS CLOSED.
