Popp Z-Wave Quick Start Manual

Z-Wave Wall Plug Switch

Quick Start

This is a Z-Wave actuator. Inclusion and Exclusion are confirmed by a triple click
of the button. Please refer to the chapters below for detailed information about all
aspects of the products usage.

Product description

This is a switch plug that can be placed between a standard wall outlet and
electric devices, plugged in by cord. It can switch all electrical loads up to 3500
W. The device is IP 20 rated and can therefore only be used on dry
environments. Switching is controlled wirelessly using Z-Wave or locally using a
toggling button. A blue LED indicates the switching status. An automatic 'Off'
function and programmable switching behavior make the device a very flexible
tool for the in house lighting.

Installation Guidelines

The plug is IP20 rated and can therefore only be used in dry environments. Do
not locate the device facing direct sunlight, humid or dusty place. The suitable
ambient temperature for the device is 0°C ~ 40°C. Plugs must not be stacked
when operated.

Behavior within the Z-Wave network

On factory default the device does not belong to any Z-Wave network. The device
needs to join an existing wireless network to communicate with the devices of this
network. This process is called Inclusion. Devices can also leave a network. This
process is called Exclusion. Both processes are initiated by the primary
controller of the Z-Wave network. This controller will be turned into exclusion
respective inclusion mode. Please refer to your primary controllers manual on
how to turn your controller into inclusion or exclusion mode. Only if the primary
controller is in inclusion or exclusion mode, this device can join or leave the
network. Leaving the network - i.e. being excluded - sets the device back to
factory default.

If the device already belongs to a network, follow the exclusion process before
including it in your network. Otherwise inclusion of this device will fail. If the
controller being included was a primary controller, it has to be reset first.

Inclusion and Exclusion are confirmed by a triple click on the button.

Operating the device

The device is able to switch electric loads up to 3500 W and can be switched
wirelessly or using the local button.

Local Operation
The local button allows switching the device. A short press on the button toggles
the switch. If it is in on state the button turns off and respective in off state the
button turns on.

LED Usage
The device has one blue LED used to indicate status information. The behavior of
the blue LED can be configured:

 It may show the switching state. This is the default option.
 It may serve as night light. So it is on when the light is off.
 It is deactivated.
 It can be controlled wirelessly and used as an indicator for other advanced

functions.

Automated Switch-Off Function
If activated the switch will turn off automatically after a defined time. This function
is particularly useful if the switch is turned on using a motion detector of any other
type of sensor. In this case it is possible to further define the reaction of the

switch on certain signals sent from a sensor. This allows a very flexible
application of the plug switch in the house.

Child Protection

The device can be turn into a child protection mode. In this mode all local
operation is disabled.

The child protection mode MUST be turned on wirelessly. However in protected
by sequence mode it is possible to unlock the device for local operation with a
triple click. The unlock state will last for 5 seconds.

Associations

Z-Wave devices control other Z-Wave devices. The relationship between one
device controlling another device is called association . In order to control a
different device, the controlling device needs to maintain a list of devices that will
receive controlling commands. These lists are called association groups and
they are always related to certain events (e.g. button pressed, sensor triggers,
...). In case the event happens all devices stored in the respective association
group will receive a common wireless command.

Association Groups:

1

Send Reports on switch state change (max. nodes in group: 5)

Configuration Parameters

Z-Wave products are supposed to work out of the box after inclusion, however
certain configuration can adapt the function better to user needs or unlock further
enhanced features.

What to do on RF off command (Parameter Number 3, Parameter Size 1)

Defines how to interpret RF Off command. Can be used in conjunction with Auto
Off function: Ignore - to switch on the light by motion detectors and switch it off
after some amount of time: in case of multiple motion detectors each would try to
switch the light off that would break logics; Switch on - to switch on the light on
both On and Off paddle press on the remote and switch it off after some amount
of time. Button off click will still work (if button operations are not disabled).
