Federal Communication Commission Interference Statement
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital
device, pursuant to Part 15 of FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable
protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates,
uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance
with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However,
there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this
equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be
determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the
interference by one or more of the following measures:
1. Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
2. Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
3. Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver
is connected.
4. Consult the dealer or an experienced radio technician for help.
FCC Caution
To assure continued compliance, use only shielded interface cables when connecting to
computer or peripheral devices.Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the
party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two
conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must
accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired
operation.
Federal Communication Commission (FCC) Radiation Exposure Statement
This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure set forth for an uncontrolled
environment. In order to avoid the possibility of exceeding the FCC radio frequency
exposure limits, human proximity to the antenna shall not be less than 20 cm (8 inches)
during normal operation.
Safety
This equipment is designed with the utmost care for the safety of those who install and use it.
However, special attention must be paid to the dangers of electric shock and static electricity
when working with electrical equipment. All guidelines of this and of the computer
manufacture must therefore be allowed at all times to ensure the safe use of the equipment.

Home Automation and Smart Home Control
PLANET HAC-1000 is a Z-Wave Home Automation Control Gateway that controls all Z-Wave
wireless devices regardless of brands as they are based on the Z-Wave technology. Since
most users would like to control their devices via the internet, the HAC-1000 is required to turn
your home into a smart and secure one where lighting control, window blinds, security
monitoring, door locks, thermostats, emergency monitoring, energy management, visual
reporting, and more can be managed from anywhere, whether you are at home or office, or
somewhere on the road, with smart phones, tablets or other mobile devices.

2.2 Hardware Installation
A. Wall-mount Installation
To install the PoE Ethernet Switch on the wall, simply follow the following steps:
Step 1: There are 4 holes with 8mm diameter on the wall; the distance between the 2 holes is
133mm and the line through them must be kept horizontal.
Step 2: Install a conductor pipe inside the board hole and flush the edge of the conductor pipe
with the wall surface.
Step 3: Screw the bolts into the conductor pipe. The HAC-1000 is between bolts and conductor
pipe, as shown below.

2.3 Initial Utility Installation
This chapter shows how to use utility to find the IP of your control gateway. The gateway is
with the default settings. However, to help you find the network gateway quickly, the windows
utility PLANET Smart Discovery can search control gateway in the network that can help you
to configure some basic settings before you start advanced management.
Step 1: Please download the search tool from PLANET Download Center:
Step 2: Unzip the file and run the program “SmartDiscoveryLite”.

read through this guide to familiarize yourself with the steps required to set up your Z-Wave
network and your control gateway.
This chapter provides setup details of the control gateway web-based interface.
3.1 Introduction
Control gateway can be configured with your
web browser. Before configuring, please
make sure your PC is in the same IP segment
as control gateway.
Enter “admin” in both the user name and
password fields to access interface.
3.2 Status
Here you can view the status of control
gateway.

3.4 Network Configuration
Use this menu to configure the network to
connect the device.
There are three connection types:
Static Address (Leased Line User)
DHCP Client IP Address (Cable Modem User)
PPPoE (ADSL Dial-up User)
Step 1. Connect the Ethernet cable to your control gateway and to a network port on your
internet router.
Step 2. Connect your computer to the same internet router with control gateway.
Step 3. Run Planet Smart Discovery Utility to find the IP of control gateway.
Step 4. Start the web browser on the computer and type the IP address you search from Planet
Smart Discovery Utility of the control gateway.
Even though the control gateway cannot be found, you can still connect your
computer straight to the HAC-1000. And set the same IP segment with control
gateway in TCP/IP of your computer. Then use default IP of control gateway:
“http://192.168.0.253“to access the web UI of control gateway.
3.4.1 Static Address
On this page, you can configure the network interfaces.
Parameters Description
IPv4 address This address is a unique number that identifies a computer or device
on the WAN or LAN. These numbers are usually shown in groups
separated by periods, for example. 192.168.0.200.
IPv4 netmask
Subnets allow network traffic between hosts to be separated based
on the network's configuration. In IP networking, traffic takes the form
of packets. IP subnets advance network security and performance to
some level by organizing hosts into logical groups. Subnet masks
contain four bytes and usually appear in the same "dotted decimal"
data. For example, a very common subnet mask in its binary
demonstration 11111111 11111111 11111111 00000000 will usually be
shown in the corresponding, more readable form as 255.255.255.0.
IPv4 gateway
A gateway is a piece of software or hardware that passes information
between networks. You'll see this term most often when you either
log in to an Internet site or when you're transient email between
different servers.
IPv4 broadcast Broadcast address, if leave blank, the system will automatically
calculate.
Use custom DNS
servers
When you send email or position a browser to an Internet domain
such as xxxxx.com, the domain name system translates the names
into IP addresses. The term refers to two things: the conventions for
naming hosts and the way the names are control across the Internet.

Z-Wave Home Automation Control Gateway
HAC-1000
We suggest to use Static IP for HAC-1000 due to control pad need to set the IP of
HAC-1000. If IP of HAC-1000 be changed, control pad can not connect with
HAC-1000.
3.4.2 DHCP Client
If you choose this connection type, please make sure your IP won’t be changed.
When a DHCP server is installed on the
network to issue IP address assignment.
With this setting, the IP address is
assigned automatically.
3.4.3 PPPoE
PPPoE stands for Point to Point Protocol over Ethernet
A standard that builds on Ethernet and Point-to-Point network protocol, it allows Internet
Camera to connect to Internet with xDSL or cable connection. It can dial up your ISP and get a
dynamic IP address. For more PPPoE and Internet configuration, please consult your ISP.
It can directly connect to the xDSL; however, it should be set up in a LAN environment to
program the PPPoE information first, and then connect to the xDSL modem. Power it on again
to enable the device to dial on to the ISP for connecting to the WAN through the xDSL modem.
Enter the Username for the connection.
Enter the Password for the connection.
