Note: This module must be “Included in the
Network” only where it will be permanently
installed. The proper operation of this node in the
mesh network is dependent on it knowing its
location with respect to other nodes. You cannot
“test bench” configure this module.
ZDW120 WALL MOUNTED DIMMER
Radio Frequency Controlled, 600W, 120 VAC, Two Wire Wall
ZDW120
Mounted Dimmer/Switch and Transceiver, Release 1.1
The ZDW120 Wall Mounted Dimmer is a component of the HomePro lighting control system. Wire the Wall
Mounted Dimmer in place of the standard wall switch according to the diagram above and program from the
Wireless Controller to operate loads. Inclusion of the ZDW120 Wall Mounted Dimmer on the ZTH100 Wireless
Controller menu allows remote ON/OFF control and dimming of lights connected.
This Wall Mounted Dimmer is designed to work with other Z-Wave enabled devices. Z-Wave nodes of other types
can be added to the system and will also act as repeaters if they support this function of repeating the signal
received to other modules in the system.
As part of a Z-Wave network, the ZDW120 will also 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.
There are no field repairable assemblies on this unit. If service is needed, the unit must be returned where
purchased.
CAUTION! Read and understand these instructions before installing. 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. It is recommended that a qualified electrician perform this installation.
To reduce the risk of overheating and possible damage to other equipment, do not install to control a
receptacle, a motor operated appliance, a fluorescent lighting fixture, or a transformer-supplied appliance, but
only permanently installed incandescent lamp fixtures. Make sure the lamp(s) to be controlled directly from this
dimmer total no more than 600 watts. Retain instructions for future use.
INSTALLATION
DANGER! - SHOCK HAZARD. Make all connections with the POWER OFF to avoid injury to the installer or damage
to the device.
1. Strip 3/4" of insulation from the ends of the conductors (if not already done) and make connections as shown in the Wiring Diagram. Note that the line side of the load must be switched.
2. Check connections to be sure they are tight and no bare conductors are exposed.
3. Make sure the load or installation does not exceed the device rating.
4. Install into a single gang (only) electrical wall box.
5. Restore the power.

ZDW120 Instructions, Release 1.1
P/D 102406
Wire this Wall Mounted Dimmer in place of an existing wall switch according to the diagram. See the ZTH100
Wireless Controller operating instructions to add this module under the command of the Wireless Controller.
Air Gap Switch
The ZDW120 has an air gap switch on the face (lower left), that when pulled out, completely removes the power
available to the load (more so than simply turning the dimmer off). This enables the lamps that are controlled by
the device to be changed with minimal danger of electrical shock. The air gap switch must be pushed all the way
back in for the dimmer to operate the lamps again.
BASIC OPERATION
Local Control
The ZDW120 allows the user to
• Turn ON or OFF, DIM or BRIGHTEN, the load attached.
• Include or exclude the module from the Z-Wave system
• Control other Z-Wave enabled devices.
Also, when a controller prompts you to “Send Node ID” or to “Press Button on Unit”, quickly tap on the top or bottom
of the paddle once to satisfy those instructions.
• Tapping top of the paddle turns the load attached ON.
• Tapping bottom of the paddle turns the load attached OFF.
• Pressing and holding the top of the paddle will brighten the load attached, and pressing and holding the bottom
of the paddle will dim the load. When OFF, pressing and holding the bottom of the paddle will cause the load
will go to the minimum dim level.
Note: Upon restoration of power after a power loss, the ZDW120 defaults OFF.
LED indication
The LED on the ZDW120 will turn on when the load attached is ON. However, the LED can be user configured
to turn ON when the load attached is OFF, if so desired, to act as a night light.
The ZDW120 will flicker its LED when it is transmitting to any of its 4 groups. This can be changed if desired.
ADVANCED OPERATION
All On/All Off
The ZDW120 supports the ALL ON/ ALL OFF commands.
The ZDW120 can be set to respond to ALL ON and ALL OFF commands 4 different ways.
Refer to your controller for information on how to set the ZDW120 to operate in the manner you desire. Some
controllers may be only able to set certain settings of ALL ON/ALL OFF response.
The 4 different ways the ZDW120 can be setup to respond to ALL ON and ALL OFF commands are:
• ZDW120 will not respond to ALL ON or the ALL OFF command.
• ZDW120 will respond to ALL OFF command but will not respond to ALL ON command.
• ZDW120 will respond to ALL ON command but will not respond to ALL OFF command.
• ZDW120 will respond to ALL ON and the ALL OFF command (default).
Association
The ZDW120 supports the Association command.
The ZDW120 can be set to control other Z-Wave devices. Those devices must be installed in their permanent
location. You can turn on and off, and even dim other Z-Wave devices once they are “associated” into 1 of 4 groups
within the ZDW120.
Each group is turned on or off (or dimmed) by tapping or holding the paddle a differing amount of times.
If you associate a Z-Wave device into Group 1, you can turn that device on and off by tapping the paddle on or
off once. The load attached to the ZDW120 will also turn on or off. Associating nodes into group 2 or 3 will cause
a very slight delay before the command is transmitted to group 1 nodes.
