Key Fob Nanomote Panic Button
Aeotec Key Fob remote control
Remote controls revolutionized the way we could do things. They changed the way we
watch TV. They changed we listen to music. They even changed the way we park our cars.
And then they stopped revolutionizing and instead evolved to become more and more
complex. They became bigger. They became weighed down with too many buttons, too
many confusing things that you could do.
The Aeotec Key Fob Remote Control takes the remote back to where it began. It’s easy to
use. It’s simple. It’s small. It’s there for when you need it and it’s out of sight for when you
don’t. It’s been designed to further the Z-Wave revolution.
Quick Start
Your Aeotec Key Fob Remote Control comes with its batteries installed and uses wireless
technology to talk to your Z-Wave network.
For an existing Z-Wave network
Your Key Fob Remote Control can be set up as an additional Z-Wave controller. This is
perfect for including it as a remote control in an existing Z-Wave network. You’ll need to be
near your existing primary Z-Wave controller and have the Key Fob Remote Control with
you.
1. Using something such as a pin or a paper clip, press the Learn button on the Key Fob
Remote Control. Its light will begin to pulse.
2. Press the Include button on your primary Z-Wave controller. If you’re unsure of how to
do this, refer to its user manual.
3. Once the two devices have exchanged information, the light on the Key Fob Remote
Control will stay lit for 2 seconds.
Your Key Fob Remote Control will now work as a remote control within your Z-Wave
network, allowing it to both control associated devices and act as a tool for adding and
removing devices to your Z-Wave network.
For a new Z-Wave network
Your Key Fob Remote Control can be set up as the primary controller of a Z-Wave
network. This is ideal for a situation where you don’t already have a Z-Wave network set
up, and you’re either starting out or intending to set up only a small system.

In this case you need to associate your Z-Wave devices with the Key Fob Remote Control
- this will, by default, set up a new Z-Wave network for you. To do this, refer to ‘Adding
devices to your Z-Wave network’ in the Advanced Functions part of this manual, and follow
the instructions.
Selecting which devices to control
With your Key Fob Remote Control now working within your Z-Wave network, it’s time to
tell it which other Z-Wave devices within the same network you want it to control. It can
activate / turn on any device within the network. During the following set up process, you’ll
need to move near any of the devices that you wish to control.
1. Press, hold and do not release the action button that you want to use control a Z-Wave
device. Your remote’s light will blink quickly when it’s ready to add devices to an action
button.
2. Press the Z-Wave network button on the device that you wish to control. If you’re
unsure of how to do this, refer to its user manual.
3. Your remote’s light will stop blinking and stay on to let you know that the device can
now be controlled by the action button.
4. You can now turn devices on and off with a short press of the relevant action button.
Should you have devices that have degrees of functionality, such as lighting that can
be dimmed or blinds that can be half opened, there is an additional functionality that
you may choose to use - dimming. When held down, the action button will send up and
down instructions to any compatible Z-Wave devices associated with it. With a
dimmable light, holding down an action button would see it brighten or dim depending
on its current level of brightness.
5. If you are adding a light that can be dimmed or a device that can have a level, such as
a window shade or a garage door, you can set your remote to open it to a particular
level. To do this, after performing step 4, adjust the level of the Z-Wave device to your
desired setting.
6. Release the action button you held down in step 1.
7. Repeat the above steps to add other Z-Wave devices. Multiple devices can be
controlled all at once by a single Z-Wave button. To do this, repeat the previous steps
using the desired action button in step 1.
