GPB-7000
Gerber Prime Boiler Control Panel
Note: The power cord must meet 1.25mm² or 16AWG or better
This Gerber Prime Boiler GPB-7000 is a security enabled wireless device, based on
Z-Wave Plus technology. Z-Wave PlusTM enabled devices displaying the Z-Wave
PlusTM logo can also be used with it regardless of the manufacturer, and can also be
used in other manufacturer’s Z-WaveTM enabled networks. Remote On/Off control of
the switch is possible with other manufacturer’s wireless Controller. GPB-7000 is
designed to act as a repeater. Repeaters will re-transmit the RF signal to ensure that
the signal is received by its intended destination by routing the signal around obstacles
and radio dead spots. Because GPB-7000 supports Security Command Class, it can
learn with Secured controller. Its functionality and supported command classes is
identical when included as a secure and non-secure device.
GPB-7000 is able to detect instance wattage (3840/EU, 1920/US) and overload current
(16A) of connected lights or appliances. When detecting overload state, the switch will
be turned off and its On/Off function will be lockout of which LED will flash quickly.
However, disconnect and re-connect the switch will reset its overload condition to
normal status.
Safety Precautions and Installation
• Avoid installing the unit in storming or raining weather.
• Be sure to isolate or switch off power source before installing or
• Do ensure that the power supply circuit protected by a 16A circuit breaker or
IMPORTANT
• Installation must be performed by skilled technicians who are informed about
• Check your local codes as they apply to your situation. If the house wiring is

SHOCK.
Adding to Z-Wave
In the front casing, there are thee touch buttons with LED indicator, “”、“┿”、“━”, which
is used to toggle switch on and off or carry out inclusion, exclusion, reset. When first
power is applied, its LED flashes on and off alternately and repeatedly at 2 second
intervals. It implies that it has not been assigned a node ID.
Smart Start
Before adding GPB-7000 into the Z-wave network, the controller should scan its QR
code. Then connect the AC power to GPB-7000, the learning procedure will progress
automatically.
Note: Unlike “inclusion” function as shown in the table below, the execution of
smart start is free from pressing the On/Off button on the Switch.
The table below lists an operation summary of basic Z-Wave functions. Please refer

Installation and Operation
1. Plug this switch into a wall box near the load to be controlled.
2. Connects the load to the switch. Make sure the load to be controlled cannot exceed
16A (Resistive Load).
3. Press the button or switch on the load to the ON position.
4. To manually turn ON the switch, short press the “” button. The green “” LED will
turn ON, and the blue timer LEDs will also turn ON. Every passed 10 minutes will
change one blue LED as a green LED. When all the blue LEDs changes, all the
green LEDs will blink twice and turn off. Then the switch turns off and green “”
LED changes to red “” LED.
5. To manually turn OFF the Switch, short press the “” button. The red LED will turn
ON and the load connected to the switch will also turn OFF.
6. Every short press “┿” button, there will be increasing one more blue LED. When
arrives to the intended timer, stop pressing and all the blue LEDs will blink twice.
Or you can press and hold “┿” button, there will be increasing one more blue LED
every half second. Every blue LED represents 10 minutes working time of switch.
The maximum time is 110 minutes, and the default is 60 minutes.
7. Every short press “━” button, there will be decreasing one blue LED. This means
the working time of switch decrease 10 minutes. The minimum time is 10 minutes.
Or you can press and hold “━” button, there will be decreasing one blue LED every
half second.
8. After switch is turned on for a while, you can still decrease (or increase) the working
time by pressing “━” button (or “┿” button). When all the blue LEDs decreases to
off, the switch will turn off.
Programming
1. Basic Command Class / Binary Switch Command Class
GPB-7000 will respond to BASIC and BINARY commands that are part of the ZWave system.
1-1 BASIC_GET / BINARY_SWITCH_GET
Upon receipt of the following commands from a Z-Wave Controller, GPB-7000 will
report its On/Off state to the node asked.
Basic Get Command: [Command Class Basic, Basic Get]
Basic Report Command:
Report OFF: [Command Class Basic, Basic Report, Value = 0(0x00)]
Report ON:[Command Class Basic, Basic Report, Value = 255(0xFF)]
Binary Switch Get Command:[Command Class Switch Binary, Switch Binary Get]
Binary Switch Report Command:
Report OFF:[Command Class Switch Binary, Switch Binary Report, Value
=0(0x00)]
Report ON:[Command Class Switch Binary, Switch Binary Report, Value =
255(0xFF)]
1-2 BASIC_SET / SWITCH_BINARY_SET
Upon receipt of the following commands from a Z-Wave Controller, the load
attached to GPB-7000will turn on or off.
[Command Class Basic, Basic Set, Value = 1~99, 255(0xFF)]: the load attached
to the switch turns on.
[Command Class Basic, Basic Set, Value = 0(0x00)]: the load attached to the
switch turns off.
[Command Class Switch Binary, Switch Binary Set, Value = 1~99, (255)0xFF]: the
load attached to the switch turns on.
[Command Class Switch Binary, Switch Binary Set, Value = 0(0x00)]: the load
attached to the switch turns off.
1. Z-Wave’s Groups (Association Command Class Version 2)
The Switch can be set to send reports to associated Z-Wave devices. It supports one
association group with one node support for Grouping 1. For group 1, the Switch will
report its latest status to Z-Wave Controller.
Grouping 1 includes, SWITCH_BINARY_REPORT, METER_REPORT,
ALARM_REPORT and DEVICE_RESET_LOCALLY_NOTIFICATION.
2-1 Auto report to Grouping 1 (Maximum Node 5)
