PSS-29ZBS(R) / PSM-29ZBS(R) Power Switch Series

Introduction

The Power Switch series include the following models:

PSS-29ZBS: ZigBee Power Switch
PSS-29ZBSR: ZigBee Power Switch with Router function
PSM-29ZBS: ZigBee Power Switch with Meter
PSM-29ZBSR: ZigBee Power Switch with Meter and Router function

The Power Switches are capable of receiving wireless signals from the coordinator in the Zigbee network to
toggle On/Off of appliances that are attached to it.

The Power Switch utilizes ZigBee technology for wireless signal transmission. ZigBee is a wireless
communication protocol that is reliable, has low power consumption and has high transmission efficiency. Based
on the IEEE802.15.4 standard, ZigBee allows a large amount of devices to be included in a network and
coordinated for data exchange and signal transmission.

Models with Meter functions (PSM-29ZBS / PSM-29ZBSR) have the extra feature of keeping tracks of energy
consumption with built-in power meter and transmit the data to coordinator regularly.

Models with router function (PSS-29ZBSR / PSM-29ZBSR) also serve as a router in the ZigBee net work. After
being included in the ZigBee network, it allows other ZigBee device to join the network through the Power Switch.

PSS-29ZBS No No
PSS-29ZBSR No Yes
PSM-29ZBS Yes No
PSM-29ZBSR Yes Yes

Parts Identification

1. Function Button aka LED indicator

The Function Button also doubles as the LED Indicator. The function button is used to
control the Power Switch. The LED indicator is used to indicate Power Switch status.

LED Indication:

The LED indicator lights up in the following conditions:

- On:
The Power Switch is turned on.

- Off:
The Power Switch is turned off.

- Flashes twice:
The Power Switch has successfully joined a ZigBee network.

- Flashes 5 times
The Power Switch has successfully bound with a controller

- Flashes every 20 minutes
The Power Switch has lost connection to its current ZigBee network
(PSS-29ZBS and PSM-29ZBS only)

Function Button Usage:

- Press the button to toggle on/off the Power Switch

- Press and hold the button for 10 seconds then release to reset the
Power Switch.

- Press and hold the button for 3 seconds then release to bind with a
controller

As a ZigBee device, the Power Switch needs to join a ZigBee network to receive commands and transmit
energy consumption information. Follow the steps bellow to join the Power Switch into a ZigBee network.

1. Plug in the Power Switch into a power outlet.

2. Press and hold the function button for 10 seconds as the Power Switch resets and starts searching for
existing ZigBee network. Please make sure the permit-to-join feature on the router or coordinator of your
ZigBee network is enabled.

3. If the Power Switch successfully joins a ZigBee network, the LED Indicator will flash twice to confirm.

4. After joining the ZigBee network, the Power Switch will be registered in the network automatically. Please
check the Zigbee network coordinator, system control panel or CIE (Control and Indicating Equipment) to
confirm if joining and registration is successful.

5. If registration and joining to the network is unsuccessful, please check your ZigBee network coordinator,
system control panel or CIE setting to ensure the permit-to-join function is available, a nd then use the
Factory Reset function below to join the ZigBee network.

After joining the ZigBee network, the Power Switch can bind itself with a controller device which can be used
to turn on/off the Power Switch. To bind the Power Switch and the device:

1. Press and hold the Function Button for 3 seconds, then release the button. The Power Switch will send
binding request to the coordinator.

2. Refer to your controller manual to send binding request for the device within 16 seconds.

3. If binding is successful, the Power Switch LED indicator will flash 5 times to confirm. You can now use the
controller to adjust power output level for the Power Switch.

4. If binding is unsuccessful, please retry the binding process.

If you want to remove the Power Switch from current network and join a new network, you need to use the
Factory Reset function to clear the Power Switch from its stored setting and information first before it can join
another network. To perform Factor y Reset:

1. Press and hold the switch button for 10 seconds, release the button until the LED Indicator flash once.

2. The Power Switch has been reset to factory default setting with all its previous network information
removed. It will now actively search for available ZigBee network again and join the network automatically.

3. If the Power Switch successfully joins a ZigBee network, the LED Indicator will flash twice to indicate.

The Power Switch models with Router function allow other ZigBee devices to join the ZigBee Network
through the Router. The Power Switch Router has maximum capacity of 40 devices/routers; the Power
Switch Meter Router has maximum capacity of 10/routers.

z After the Power Switch has successfully joined a ZigBee network, the coordinator can remotely turn

when AC power fails. DO NOT use the Power Switch as router for your security sensor or alarm control
devices such as Door Contact, PIR Sensor…etc., otherwise the sensors will lose connection to ZigBee
network if the Power Switch is disconnected from AC power. Plan the installation locations of these
security sensors without using the Power Switch and only use a router with backup battery for them.
The router function of the Power Switch should ONLY be used to provide signal range extension for
other Power Switches/Dimmer.
