devices in a home control network. It will also act as a wireless repeater to insure that commands intended for another
device in the network are received, thereby extending the range of the wireless controller. Z-Wave devices of other
types and brands can be added to the system and will also act as range extenders if they support this function of
repeating the signal received to other nodes in the system.
The device plugged into the Z-W ave controlled outlet on this module must not exceed 600 watts (Incandescent); 15
Amps, 1800W (Resistive); or ½ HP (Motor).

Key Features
• One Z-wave remote controlled AC outlet
o Remote ON/OFF control via the Z-Wave controller
o Manual ON/OFF control with the pushbutton
• Weather and impact resistant housing; Suitable for use outdoors in damp or wet conditions

Basic Operation
Manual Control
The Pushbutton on the 45604 Appliance Module allows the user to:
1. Manually turn the connected equipment ON or OFF by pressing the button.
• This is a toggle switch; if the device is OFF, pressing the button turns the device ON and vice versa.
2. Include or exclude the module from the Z-Wave home control network.
• Refer to the instructions for your primary controller to access the network setup function and include or
exclude devices.
• When prompted by your primary controller, tap the button.
• The primary controller should indicate that the action was successful. If the controller indicates the action
was unsuccessful, please repeat the procedure.
• Once the module is part of the network, the same basic procedure is used to add the module to groups or
scenes. Refer to the primary controller’s instructions for details.

Please Note: After a power failure, the 45604 module defaults to OFF.
ADVANCED OPERATION
The following Advanced Operation parameters require that you have an advanced controller like the GE model 45601
LCD remote. Advanced remotes from other manufacturers may also be able to change these settings; however, basic
remotes do not have this capability.
All On/All Off
Depending upon your primary controller, the 45604 outdoor module can be set to respond to ALL ON and ALL OFF
commands in up to four different ways. Some controllers may not be able to change the response from its default
setting. Please refer to your controller’s instructions for information on whether or not it supports the configuration
function and if so, how to change this setting.
The four possible responses are:
• It will respond to ALL ON and the ALL OFF command (default).
• It will not respond to ALL ON or ALL OFF commands.
• It will respond to the ALL OFF command but will not respond to the ALL ON command.
• It will respond to the ALL ON command but will not respond to the ALL OFF command.
Restoring Factory Defaults
All network settings and configuration parameters can all be restored to their factory default settings by using your
master controller to reset the device. Please note: The GE Model #45601 controller is designed to do this. Use
the controller’s “Setup / Reset Unit” menu to restore defaults. Not all controllers are capable of this; your
controller must be designed to perform this function.
Software Fuse
This Outdoor Module is designed to protect itself against loads that exceed its maximum power rating. An overload is
automatically sensed by the module and all power to the load is shut OFF immediately.
Troubleshooting: Verify that the load does not exceed the module’s maximum rating if the module doesn’t seem to
work properly. Normal operation should be restored when the load is reduced to the proper rating.
Over-Current Protection
Additional over-current protection is provided by an internal fuse which is not user serviceable. Check your home’s
circuit breakers before concluding that the product must be replaced.
Interoperability with Z-Wave™ Devices
A Z-Wave™ network can integrate devices of various classes, and these devices can be made by different
manufacturers. Although every Z-Wave certified product is designed to work with all other Z-Wave certified products,
your controller must include the appropriate device classifications in order to control non-lighting Z-wave devices. As
an example, the GE 45600 basic remote is designed only for controlling Z-Wave devices using the lighting control
classification. The GE 45601 deluxe remote with LCD readout can control other Z-Wave certified devices like
thermostats as well as lighting.
