Operating Temperature: +5 ~ +140°F (-15 ~ +60°C)
Battery: 1x CR123A
INSTALLATION
Note: If you are installing a complete Z-Wave system for the first time, please refer to
the installation guide of your Z-Wave Interface Controller before installing this Garage
Door Sensor.
1. Press the locking tab on the top of the sensor cover and gently remove the cover.
2. Insert a battery into the battery holder, as shown in the diagram on the previous
page. Ensure that the polarity markings on the battery align with the polarity
markings on the battery holder.
3. Once the battery is installed, the LED will start flashing slowly. This indicates that
the sensor has not yet been "included" into a Z-Wave network.
4. Using the included adhesive tape or screws, mount the Bracket Holder in the
location you want to mount this sensor.
5. Slide the sensor over the bracket holder and fix it in place using the included lock
screw.
6. Proceed to the "Inclusion" section below.

INCLUSION
Now that the sensor is in its final location, it can be "included" into the network. Bring
your Z-Wave Interface Controller to the sensor's location. The distance between the
controller and the sensor should be less than 1 meter during the "inclusion" process.
1. If the cover is not already removed, press the locking tab on the top of the sensor
cover and gently remove it.
2. Following the instructions that came with your Z-Wave Controller, put the
controller into "include" mode.
3. When prompted, press and hold the Program/Tamper switch on the sensor for
about 1 second.
4. If the "inclusion" process is successful, the LED on the sensor will cease flashing
and glow steadily. If it does not, repeat steps 2-3.
5. Replace the cover.
6. Test the functionality of the sensor by opening the garage door to which it is
attached. The sensor should send an ON signal (Basic Set, value: 0xFF)to the
Z-Wave Interface controller and the LED will flash once.
7. Next, close the garage door. The sensor should send an OFF signal (Basic Set,
value: 0x00)to the Z-Wave Interface controller and the LED will flash once.
EXCLUSION
If you wish to remove the sensor from your network, you will need to "exclude" it.
1. Press the locking tab on the top of the sensor cover and gently remove it.
2. Following the instructions that came with your Z-Wave Controller, put it into
"exclude" mode.
3. When prompted, press and hold the Program/Tamper switch on the sensor for
about 1 second to complete the "exclusion" process.
4. Replace the sensor cover.
ASSOCIATION
This sensor can be part of a single Association Group of up to 5 nodes. Following the
instructions that came with your Z-Wave Controller, associate it with another device.

SLEEP/AWAKE MODE
Under normal operation, the sensor is in "sleep" mode. While asleep, the sensor is still
looking for angular changes, but is not in active communications with the network until it
detects an angular change and sends an alarm signal.
When the cover is removed from the sensor, it is in "awake" mode, which allows it to
receive and reply to commands from the Z-Wave Controller.
OPERATION
When the garage door is opened, the sensor will send an ON status report (Basic Set,
value: 0xFF) to the controller and all associated Z-Wave devices.
When the garage door is closed, it will send an OFF status report (Basic Set, value:
0x00) to the controller and all associated Z-Wave devices.
EXTERNAL SWITCH
You can enhance the sensor by adding an external switch, such as a door/window
sensor. The sensor has two normally closed contact terminals, which can be used for
external switch wired contacts. When triggered, the external switch will send an Alarm
Report.
To install an external switch, loosen the two screws shown below (1). Next, insert the
leads from the external switch through the hole in the side of the casing (2). Finally,
tighten the two screws (1) to secure the leads.
5

TAMPERING
When the cover is removed the tamper switch will trigger, causing the sensor to send an
Alarm Report to the controller and turning the LED on. Refer to your controller's device
log for alarm report details.
