ZW1505 Z-wave power strip (5 port)
Willis’s family of Z-Wave credited wireless lighting controls (switches, dimmers, outlets and
plug-in modules) brings a new level of intelligent wireless capability to commercial and
residential environments.
The Z-Wave wireless protocol is an international wireless standard for remote home automation,
security and other applications. Embedded in each device, the Z-Wave smart chip enables
two-way RF communication among hundreds of Z-Wave enabled devices, allowing products and
services from multiple manufacturers to work seamlessly.
Willis Z-Wave products are easy to install, and allow dealers to create an integrated wireless
network with nearly limitless expansion and interoperability with security and health monitoring
systems, energy management, home entertainment, appliances, and more.
This product supports 40Kbps data transmission. This product can also be used for network
support in systems that stream metadata. An example might include transmission of information
from audio devices such as song title, artist, and album information to various displays around the
home. As part of a Z-Wave network, the ZW1505 will act as a wireless repeater to insure that
commands intended for another device in the network are received. This is useful when the device
would otherwise be out of the radio range of the wireless controller.

INSTALLATION
Plug this Appliance Module into the wall outlet near the load to be controlled, and plug the load
into the Appliance Module. Make sure the load to be controlled is 10 amps or less.

INCLUDING ZW1505 TO THE NETWORK
STEP 1. Prepare the Controller to include a unit to the network, by adding it to a group (method of
adding a node to the network). Refer to controller instructions.
STEP 2. The ZW1505 must be in its permanently installed location. Tap the button on the
ZW1505 once.
STEP 3. You should see an indication on your Controller that the “DEVICE WAS INCLUDED”
in the network.
NOTE: If you have trouble adding the ZW1505 to a group it may be that the Home ID and Node
ID were not cleared from it after testing. You must fi rst “RESET UNIT” with your controller to
remove it from the network. Although adding it to a group includes it in the network, removing it
from a group does not remove it from the network. If removed from a group, it functions only as a
repeater

BASIC OPERATION
Button (Local Control)
The button on the ZW1505 allows the user to:

• Turn the attached load on or off.

• Include or exclude the module from the Z-Wave system.

When a controller prompts you to “Send Node ID” or to “Press Button

on Unit”, quickly tap the button once to satisfy those instructions.
Tapping button toggles the load attached ON or OFF.
Remote Control
The ZW1505 will respond to BASIC and BINARY commands that are part of the Z-Wave system.
Refer to your controller’s instructions as to whether your controller can transmit those commands.

All On/All Off
The ZW1505 supports the ALL ON/ALL OFF commands.
The ZW1505 can be set to respond to ALL ON and ALL OFF commands
4 different ways. Refer to your controller for information on how to set
the ZW1505 to operate in the manner you desire. Some controllers may
be only able to set certain settings of ALL ON/ALL OFF response. The
4 different ways the ZW1505 can be set up to respond to ALL ON and
ALL OFF commands are:

• ZW1505 will not respond to ALL ON or the ALL OFF command.

• ZW1505 will respond to ALL OFF command but will not respond to

ALL ON command.

• ZW1505 will respond to ALL ON command but will not respond to
ALL OFF command.

• ZW1505 will respond to ALL ON and the ALL OFF command.
Manufacturer Specifi c
The ZW1505 supports the Manufacturer Specifi c command. The
ZW1505 can return Manufacturer Specifi c information about itse lf.
Refer to your Controller’s instructions on how to get this information
from the ZW1505 .
SUC Support
There must be a Static Update Controller in your Z-Wave system for
this feature to work. The Static Controller can act as a gateway in the
system, since other nodes always know its position (not moved after
addition to the network. The “always listening” advantage of the Static
Controller is that other nodes can transmit information frames to it
whenever needed. You can assign an “SUC Route” to the ZW1505 .
Refer to your controller’s instructions on how to do this (if it supports it).
Assigning an SUC Route to the ZW1505 allows it to request an update
of the Z-Wave devices that are between it and the Z-Wave device to
which it was trying to transmit. The ZW1505 will only request an update
when a transmission fails. Confi guration
The ZW1505 supports the Confi guration command.
The ZW1505 can be confi gured to operate slightly differently that it
works when you fi rst install it. Using the confi guration command you can
confi gure the following (if your controller supports it) Set this parameter
to 1 for normal ON/OFF operation. Set this parameter to 0 to enable
fl ash mode which operates as follows:

• With Parameter 104 value set to 0, relay is closed and
