1 Introduction
This user manual is designed to guide you through the set -up and
features of the SYLVANIA Z-Wave Lighting and Appliance Control
System. You will be amazed at the possibilities for you home or
office!
With SYLVANIA’s Lighting & Appliance Control System you easily
and affordably enhance the comfort and security of your home or
office. Y ou’ll see how easy it is to create a totally custom system
quickly that can remotely control lamps and appliances, without
costly professional installation -- a system that any do-it-yourselfer
can easily handle.
For example, with just one remote control unit you can control up to
64 individual lamp modules or wall switches! You can control all
adapters at once, singly or in groups, turn-on custom programmed
mood lighting, timers for burglar-deterrent lighting or automatic
“one-click” on/off control, and lock-off outlets for
child protection.
This user guide tells you how to create your system. Instructions for
installing built -in components (wall switches, etc.) are included with
those components. The Sylvania Z-Wave Lighting & Appliance
Control System gives you the following functionalities:

they automatically turn on and off at preset hours

Full Home Coverage
One of the key features of the SYLVANIA Z-Wave technology is the
routing capability of all the devices in the network. Z-Wave
automatically routes the signal from one device to the next and
around obstacles and radio dead spots in your home or office. You
only need to be within 100’ of any Sylvania Z-wave device to
communicate with all other Sylvania Z-Wave devices, so the more
Sylvania Z-Wave enabled devices you have in your home or office,
the better the coverage.
