Aeotec Dual Nano Switch.
Aeotec Dual Nano Switch (http://aeotec.com/z-wave-outlet-socket) has been crafted to power connected sockets and switches using Z-Wave Plus (http://aeotec.com/z-wave-
plus). It is powered by Aeotec’s Gen5 (http://aeotec.com/z-wave-gen5) technology.
To see whether Dual Nano Switch is known to be compatible with your Z-Wave system or not, please reference our Z-Wave gateway comparison (http://aeotec.com/z-wave-
gateways) listing. The technical specifications of Dual Nano Switch can be viewed at this link. (https://aeotec.freshdesk.com/solution/articles/6000193658-dual-nano-switch-
technical-specifications-)
Familiarize yourself with your Dual Nano Switch (ZW132 or ZW140).

Important safety information.
Please read this and other device guides carefully. Failure to follow the recommendations set forth by Aeotec Limited may be dangerous or cause a violation of the law. The
manufacturer, importer, distributor, and / or reseller will not be held responsible for any loss or damage resulting from not following any instructions in this guide or in other
materials.
The maximum amperage rating for Dual Nano Switch should not exceed 5 amps per load.
Keep product away from open flames and extreme heat. Avoid direct sun light or heat exposure.
Install the Dual Nano Switch.
Dual Nano Switch installs behind a lighting switch or a momentary push button. It works with only 3-wire (with neutral) lighting setups, though each installation of Dual Nano
Switch is accordingly slightly different:
1. Shut off the main circuit breaker of your home for safety during the installation and ensure the wires are not short circuited during the installation which will cause damage to
the Dual Nano Switch.
Note: Your home’s main circuit breaker must support the overload protection for safety.

2. Preparing connection wires
14 AWG power wires for Input / Output.
18 AWG copper wires for external manual switch.
Use the wire stripper cut the metallic part of the connection wire and make sure the length of the metallic part is about 5mm.
Note: All connection wires needs to be flexible cable.

In some cases, you may have some loads just only can be used on the voltage of 24VDC and hope that it still can be controlled by the Dual Nano Switch, so please refer to
the following diagram to achieve this:

Note: The “IN” terminal should be connected to the “-” of 24VDC input.
Warning: Dual Nano Switch ZW132 is not compatible with this configuration, you must use Dual Nano Switch ZW140 without energy reading.
Wiring diagram of 24VDC power input.
Since the Dual Nano Switch also supports the 24VDC power input, so you can use it to control the loads that powered by 24VDC.

If the output loads should be only powered by AC120V or AC230V, you can change the wire connection as below:

Note: The “IN” terminal should be connected to the “Live” of AC 120V/230V power wire.
Warning: Dual Nano Switch ZW132 is not compatible with this configuration, you must use Dual Nano Switch ZW140 without energy reading.
All above wiring diagrams show that the Dual Nano Switch uses 2-Way or momentary button switches as the external manual switch for 2-Way connection.
The below diagram will show you that the Dual Nano Switch uses the SPDT (Single-Pole Double-Throw) switches as the external manual switch for 3-Way connection.

3. Install Dual Nano Switch to the gang box.
a. Live/Hot wire connection: Connect the Live/Hot wire to the “L” terminal on the Dual Nano Switch.
b. Neutral wire connection: Connect the Neutral wire to the “N” terminal on the Dual Nano Switch.
c. Load wire 1 connection: Connect the Load wire to the “OUT1” on the Dual Nano Switch.
d. Load wire 2 connection: Connect the Load wire to the “OUT2” on the Dual Nano Switch.
e. External/manual Switch connection: Connect 2 18AWG wires to the “S1” and “S2” on the Dual Nano Switch.
e. External/manual Switch connection: Connect 2 18AWG wires form the 2 terminals on the External/manual Switch to the Live wire.

Quick Start.
Adding your Dual Nano Switch to a Z-Wave network.
After your Dual Nano Switch is installed and powered on, you are now able to manually control the Dual Nano Switch to turn it On/Off directly via pressing your Dual Nano
Switch’s Action Button, it is now time to add your Dual Nano Switch to the Z-Wave network. To set your Z-Wave gateway/controller into pairing mode, please refer to the
respective section within your controller instruction manual.
1. Set your Z-Wave controller into pairing mode.
2. Press the Action Button on the Dual Nano Switch once or toggle the external manual switch once, the green LED (non-secure indication) will blink to indicate the Dual Nano
Switch is entering into pairing mode.
3. If the Dual Nano Switch has been successfully added to your Z-Wave network, its RGB LED will be solid. If the pairing was unsuccessful, the red LED will be on for 2
seconds and then remain a colorful gradient. Repeat the instructions above
from step 1.
With your Dual Nano Switch now working as a part of your smart home, you’ll be able to configure it from your home control software/phone application. Please refer to your
software or gateway user guide for further instructions on configuring Dual Nano Switch to your needs.
The colour of RGB LED will change according to the output load power level:
Version LED indication Output (A)
US Green [0A, 7.5A)
