USER MANUAL
Introduction
Thank you for choosing ZRP-100 Z-Wave Repeater product! ZRP-100 is a Z-Wave
repeater with best RF performance to repeat Z-Wave signals in a network, which will
re-transmit the RF signal to ensure that the signal is received by its intended
destination by routing the signal around obstacle and radio dead spots.

Glossary
Key Features
- Supports Network Wide Inclusion (NWI) and Explore Frames
- Reliable and best RF performance to repeat Z-Wave signals
- Ultra-low power consumption
- Complex, thin and small size form factor
- Does not block lower outlet when plugged into upper outlet of a duplex wall
receptacle and vice versa
Device/Light/Node Devices, lights and nodes are all terms to describe an individual
Z-Wave device. These are all interchangeable when setting up
your Z-Wave network.
Z-Wave Network A collection of Z-Wave devices is controlled by primary and
secondary controllers operating on the same system. A Z-Wave
network has its own unique ID code so that controllers not in the
network cannot control the system.
Inclusion Add a Z-Wave device to the network.
Exclusion Delete a Z-Wave device from the network.
Network Wide
Inclusion (NWI)
Network Wide Inclusion (NWI) enables both end-user friendly, Plug
and Play like Z-Wave network installation as well as professional
installation scenario where the inclusion process in terms of time
will be reduced significantly. NWI is a feature supported by a new
frame type named Explorer which enables the Z-Wave protocol to
implement Adaptive Source Routing.

Z-Wave setup and operations

Z-Wave inclusion and exclusion
Include or exclude the ZRP-100 from the existing Z-Wave home control network with your
primary controller.
- Refer to your primary controller instructions to process the inclusion / exclusion setup
procedure.
- When prompted by your primary controller, triple click the PROG button within 1 second.
(The unit will enter classical inclusion/exclusion first then jump to NWI, it will exit NWI
mode automatically after 5 seconds if no inclusion/exclusion request.)
- The primary controller should indicate that the action was successful. If the controller
indicates the action was unsuccessful, please repeat the procedure.
All configuration parameters value will keep no change after exclude the unit from network

Wireless Information
Wireless range:
This device has an open-air line-of-sight transmission distance of 30m which complies with
the Z-Wave standards. Performance can vary depending on the amount of objects in between
Z-Wave devices such as walls and furniture. Every Z-Wave device set up in your network will
act as a signal repeater allowing devices to talk to each other and find alternate routes in the
case of a reception dead spot.
Radio frequency limitations:
1. Each wall or object (i.e.: refrigerator, bookshelf, large TV, etc) can reduce the maximum
range of 20m by up to 20 to 30%.
2. Plasterboard and wooden walls block less of the radio signal then concrete, brick or tile
walls which will have more of an effect on signal strength.
3. Wall mounted Z-Wave devices will also suffer a loss of range if they are housed in metal
junction boxes which could also reduce the range by up to 20 to 30%.
Maintenance
1. Do not expose your unit to dust, strong sunlight, humidity, high temperatures or
mechanical shocks.
2. Do not use corrosive or abrasive cleansers on your unit.
3. Keep the unit dust free by wiping it with a soft, dry cloth.
4. Do not disassemble your unit; it contains no user-serviceable parts.
