Introduction:
Thank you for your purchase of a Jasco Z-Wave® control
device. Z-Wave technology is designed to automate
lighting/home control and provide easy remote operation
of all your Z-Wave enabled devices.The Jasco Z-Wave
product family includes a variety of devices to control
lighting in your home. It is up to you whether you want to
control one room or your entire house and whether you
want to do it all now or start with one room and add more
over time.
This dimmer is one component of
a Z-Wave® control system and is
designed to work with all other
Z-Wave enabled 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.

CAUTION
This device is intended for installation in accordance
with the National Electric Code and local regulations
in the United States, or the Canadian Electrical Code
and local regulations in Canada. If you are unsure or
uncomfortable about performing this installation
consult a qualified electrician.
This switch is designed for use only with permanently
installed incandescent fixtures. Do not use it to control
fluorescent lighting, transformer supplied lighting/appliances
or receptacles. The incandescent lighting controlled by this
dimmer switch must not exceed 600 watts.
NOT FOR USE WITH MEDICAL OR LIFE SUPPORT EQUIPMENT
Z-Wave enabled devices should never be used
to supply power to or control the On/Off status
of medical and/or life support equipment!
WARNING
RISK OF FIRE
RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK
Controlling Appliances:
Exercise extreme caution when using Z-Wave devices to
control appliances. Operation of the Z-Wave device may
be in a different room than the controlled appliance, also an
unintentional activation may occur if the wrong button on the
remote is pressed. Z-Wave devices may automatically be
powered on due to timed event programming. Depending upon
the appliance, these unattended or unintentional operations
could possibly result in a hazardous condition. For these
reasons, we recommend the following:
1. Assign Z-Wave controlled appliances to device
numbers 10 – 18 on the Jasco remote. The likelihood of
unintentionally turning on the appliance will be reduced
signicantly because the “Shift” button will need to be
pressed before pressing device numbers 10-18.
2. Z-Wave devices controlling appliances should be
removed from “All” control setting. Instructions on how
to do this are included in the manual for your Jasco
remote.
3. Do Not include Z-Wave devices in Groups or Scenes if
they control appliances.
4. Do Not use Z-Wave devices to control electric heaters
or any other appliances which may present a ha zardous
condition due to unattended or unintentional or
automatic power on control.
5. Double check programs for accuracy before using them.
RISK OF BURNS
Wireless Range
This device complies with the Z-Wave standard of openair, line of sight transmission distances of 65 feet. Actual
performance in a home depends on the number of
walls between the remote controller and the destination
device, the type of construction and the number of
Z-Wave enabled devices installed in the control network.
Every Z-Wave enabled device acts as a signal repeater
and multiple devices result in more possible transmission
routes which helps eliminate “RF dead-spots”.
Things to consider regarding RF range:
• Each wall or obstacle (i.e.: refrigerator, big screen TV,
etc.) between the remote or Z-Wave device and the
destination device will reduce the maximum range by
approximately 25-30%.
• Brick, tile or concrete walls block more of the RF signal
than walls made of wooden studs and plasterboard (drywall).
• Wall mounted Z-Wave devices installed in metal
junction boxes may suffer a signicant loss of range
(approximately 20%) since the metal box blocks a large
part of the RF signal.
WIRING CONFIGURATION CONSIDERATIONS: Prior
to beginning wiring your Jasco Z-Wave dimmer, please
note that this dimmer requires a neutral wire connection
in order to function properly. If the location that you wish
to install this dimmer switch does not have a neutral wire
present, you may need to contact a licensed electrician
to have a neutral wire brought to the switch location.

Please Note: Z-Wave home control networks are designed to
work properly alongside 802.11 wireless computer networks,
Bluetooth and 2.4GHz, 5.8GHz or DECT devices. Some baby
cams, wireless video devices and older cordless phones using
the 900MHz frequency range may cause interference and limit
Z-Wave functionality. Many 900MHz products have a switch to
select channel “A” or “B”. You may nd that one of these channels
will cause less interference than the other.
IMPORTANT NOTE ABOUT 3-WAY CIRCUITS
The term “3-way circuit” refers to a circuit with two switches
and one load (light) like you nd at the top and bottom of a
stairway. There are many ways to physically wire a 3-way
circuit and it is important to understand how the circuit you
wish to upgrade to Z-Wave control is wired. Below is a
description of a typical 3-way circuit.
One of the ways to wire a two-switch/one-load circuit is
to route the incoming power through the rst switch, then
to the second switch and then to the load. Although very
common and by no means a standard, it is the easiest to
convert to Z-Wave control. With this type of circuit, Switch
1 is replaced by the Z-Wave auxiliary switch and Switch 2
is replaced with the primary Z-Wave switch. The auxiliary
switch does not actually control the power; instead, it sends
a momentary voltage signal through the traveler wire to the
primary switch which in turn, controls the power to the load.
