GD00Z-4 Overview

• A garage door opener remote
command transceiver with built-in
Z-Wave technology.

• Allows remote operation of a garage
door opener using Z-Wave controllers.

• Acts as a Z-Wave repeater to improve
communications within the Z-Wave
mesh network.

GD00Z-4 Summary of Operation

• GD00Z-4 connects to the garage door
opener’s pushbutton wall console
terminals.

• A wireless tilt sensor mounts on the
garage door and reports the door’s
position to the GD00Z-4.

• GD00Z-4 responds to Z-Wave
commands from Z-Wave controllers to
open or close the garage door.

• A warning indicator light fl ashes and
a beeper sounds for 5 seconds before
the door begins to move.

• If the door does not completely
open or close, a second open or
close command can be sent after
30 seconds.

• If the door does not completely open
or close after the second attempt,
the GD00Z-4 operation is suspended
until a local garage door pushbutton is
activated.

Z-Wave Information

• Z-Wave® is a registered trademark
of Sigma Designs Inc. and/or its
subsidiaries.

• Z-Wave is an Interoperable two-way RF
mesh networking technology designed
for use with a Z-Wave gateway/
controller and other Z-Wave enabled
devices.

• Replication is the process of copying or
transferring your Z-Wave network from
one controller to another.

• This is a Security enabled Z-Wave
product and must be used with a
Security enabled Z-Wave controller
in order to fully utilize this product. As
such, this device will not respond to
Basic CC commands.

• ASSOCIATION: The GD00Z-4 supports
1 Group with 1 Node. Group 1 must be
assigned the Node ID of the controller
to which unsolicited notifi cations from
the GD00Z-4 will be sent. The Z-Wave
controller should set this association
automatically after inclusion.

OPERATION NOTES

1. The warning light will fl ash and the warning beeper will sound for fi ve seconds
before the door opener is activated. STAY CLEAR OF THE DOOR, AND DOOR

OPENER. THEY ARE ABOUT TO MOVE!

2. If the door does not completely open or close after remote activation, the GD00Z-4

will allow user to try to operate the door one more time. If the second attempt fails,
the GD00Z-4 will go into lock-out mode. See Note #3.

3. If the GD00Z-4 is in lock-out mode and will not accept remote commands, activate
the door from the pushbutton wall console.

4. Once the GD00Z-4 has initiated the movement of the garage door, another
command cannot be sent for 30 seconds. This eliminates the chance of “bouncing”
the garage door and possibly damaging the garage door opener.

network.

Reset the GD00Z-4 by pressing the LINK
button 5 times. A quick beep then a longer
beep indicates the reset. Use this procedure
only in the event that the network primary
controller is missing or otherwise inoperable.

preventing the door from moving.

2. Make sure that the GD00Z-4 connection
wires are connected to the proper
terminals on the garage door opener.
Trace the wires from the garage door
opener’s pushbutton wall console to the
door opener. This is where the GD00Z-4
connection wires should be connected.

Garage door
opens or
closes, but the
status does
not change on
