Introduction

ZXT-600, AC Master, is a Z-Wave plus compliant Z-Wave-to-IR Bridge
to control split air conditioner by receiving Z-Wave command and
translating to Infrared command. With its comprehensive built-In
and cloud-stored IR database (library). ZXT-600 can control dierent
brands and models of air conditioners worldwide.

ZXT-600 is a security enabled Z-Wave plus device. A security Enabled
Z-Wave Plus Controller must be used in order to fully utilize the
product.

ZXT-600 is a Z-Wave slave device, it depends on gateway to setup
particular AC brand with correct IR code. Dierent gateway has dif­ferent user interface for setup.

Features

Z-Wave Glossary

• Working as a Z-Wave thermostat

• Support classic inclusion and NWI

• Built-in air conditioner IR codes, as well as cloud-based IR code
library

• IR learning back up

• Built-in temperature sensor for room temperature report

• Working on battery (2x AA batteries) or USB power

Device or Node Devices and nodes are all terms to describe an indi-

vidual Z-Wave device. These are all interchangeable
when setting up your Z-Wave network.

Inclusion Add a Z-Wave device to the network.

Exclusion Remove a Z-Wave device from the network.

Remove To take a device out of a group, scene or association

group while that device still exists in the same Z-Wave
network.

Network Wide
Inclusion (NWI)

Network Wide Inclusion (NWI) enables both end-user
friendly, Plug and Play like Z-Wave network instal­lation as well as professional installation scenario
where the inclusion process, in terms of time will be
reduced signicantly. NWI is a feature supported by
a new frame type named Explorer which enables the
Z-Wave protocol to implement Adaptive Source Rout­ing.

Z-Wave Network A collection of Z-Wave devices is controlled by prima-

ry and secondary controllers operating on the same
system. A Z-Wave network has its own unique ID code
so that controllers not in the network cannot control
the system.

Primary Controller The rst controller is used to set up your devices and

network. Only the Primary Controller can be used to
include or remove devices from a network. It is rec­ommended that you mark the primary controller for
each network for ease in modifying your network.

FLiRS Mode FLiRS is abbreviation for "Frequently Listening Rout-

ing Slave".
FLiRS mode is targeted for battery operated applica­tions and will enter sleep mode frequently in order
to conserve battery consumption. The response to
Z-Wave command is not as quick as Always Listening
Device. Normally there is 1-2 seconds latency.

Always
Listening Mode

Always Listening Mode is targeted for AC power op­erated applications and it can act as a repeater, which
will re-transmit the RF signal to ensure that the signal
is received by its intended destination by routing
the signal around obstacle and radio dead spots. The
response to Z-Wave command is immediate.

Association Association is used to organize nodes in different

groups allowing the device to identify the nodes by
a group identier. The groups can also be copied to
other devices.

Get Started

• Open the box

• ZXT-600 AC Master x 1pc

Step 1 Apply Power to ZXT-600

• 2x AA batteries or micro USB

• ZXT-600 will detect the rst applied power source to decide what
Z-Wave device role it will be in after included into the Z-Wave
gateway: battery= sleeping device (FLiRS mode). USB power =
always awake device (Always Listening mode), refer to Z-Wave
Glossary for more information.

• Once the ZXT-600 is included into a Z-Wave network, the working
mode (sleeping or awake) cannot be changed, unless it is exclud­ed and re-apply the power.

• ZXT-600 can be included and operated in any Z-Wave network
with other Z-Wave certified devices from other manufacturers
and/or other applications. All non-battery operated nodes within
the network will act as repeaters regardless of Vendor to increase
reliability of the network.

Step 2 Include ZXT-600 to a Z-Wave Gateway
