BasicOperations
- TheiPlugDimcan be remotelycontrolled.
- TheiPlugDimcan be controlled bythe pushbutton onthefront ofthedevice.
- TheiPlugDim ’s indicatorlight will indicatethestatusoftheswitch(ON orOFF). 
- TheiPlugDimcan make a dimming function of the load.
Mounting
1. PlacetheiPlugDim into an outlet socket.
2. Pluginthedevicewhichyouwanttocontrolanddim.
IncludeorexcludeinZWavenetwork
1. MakesureyourZ‐Wavecontrollerisintherightoperationmode(includeorexclude).
2. Pressandholdthepushbuttonfor4secondsandreleasetostarttheinclusionorexclusionprocess
(indicationmode:Readyforlearnmode).
3. (TheproductwillstartNWIautomaticallyafterunsuccessfulnormalinclusion)
Manualcontrol
PressandreleasethepushbuttonoftheiPlugDimto switch on/off the load of socket, press and hold the
push button to dim the load of the socket.
Remotecontrol
TheiPlugDim can be remotecontrolled byseveralZ‐Wave devices.
Indicationmodes
Theindicatorgivesvariousstatusesofthedeviceasfollows:
1. Readyforlearnmode: Indicatorlightblinkseverysecond.
2. Learninprogress(add):Indicatorlightblinks2timeseverysecond.
3. Learninprogress(remove):Indicatorlightblinks3timeseverysecond.

ROUTINGSLAVE
ThisZ‐Waveproductwillbeusedasslave.SlavenodesarenodesinaZ‐Wavenetworkthatreceivecommands
andperformactionsbasedonthecommand.AroutingslavecanrouteZ‐Wavemessagestoothernodesinthe
network.ThisdeviceisalwaysawakeanddoesnotgotosleepmodebecauseitisanACpowereddevice.
ThisdevicecanactasawirelessrepeatertoforwardcommandsforanotherdeviceintheZ‐Wavenetworkto
expandtherangeofthenetwork.ThisfunctionworksforeveryZ‐Wavedevicefromanymanufacturerwhen
includedintothesameZ‐Wavenetwork.
Unlikeanormalslavearoutingslavecanstoreanumberofstaticrouteswhichheusestosendaroutedrf
frametoanothernode.
IncludeInitiator
TheincludeinitiatorisusedwhenPrimaryandInclusionControllersincludenodesintothenetwork.When
boththeincludeinitiatorhavebeenactivatedsimultaneouslythenewnodewillbeincludedtothenetwork(if
thenodewasnotincludedpreviously).
ExcludeInitiator
TheexcludeinitiatorisusedbyPrimaryControllerstoexcludenodesfromthenetwork.Whentheexclude
initiatorandaslaveinitiatorareactivatedsimultaneously,itwillresultintheslavebeingexcludedfromthe
network(andresettoNodeIDzero).Eveniftheslavewasnotpartofthenetworkitwillstillberesetbythis
action.
Z‐Wavecompatibility
BecausethisisaZ‐Wavedevice,itmeansitcanco‐operatewithotherZ‐Wavedevicesofothermanufacturers.
Itcanco‐existinaZ‐Wavenetworkexistingwithproductfromothermanufacturers.
Hops&Retries
TheZ‐Waverangehasarangeofupto30metersinlineofsight.Thissignalisnotlimitedtothe30meter
rangeduetoroutingtheZ‐Wavemessagetoothernodesinthenetwork.ThiswaytherangeoftheZ‐Wave
networkcanbeexpandedto150metersindoors(limitof4hops).


class:0x85COMMAND_CLASS_ASSOCIATION
TheAssociationCommandClassisusedtoassociateotherdeviceswiththeiPlugDim. Thedevicesthatare 
associatedcanbecontrolledonapplicationlevel.

Everytimethepushbuttonispressedaswitchbinaryreportissenttotheassociatednode

TheiPlugDim can be associatedintoagrouping.If so, the iPlugDim can becontrolledbyanotherZ‐
Z-Wavedevice(doesnothavetobeacontroller).



class:0x73COMMAND_CLASS_POWERLEVEL
ThePowerlevelCommandClassdefinestheRFtransmittingpower.Thiscommandisusedtotestthe
connectivityofanetwork.TheCommandmakesitpossibleforsupportingcontrollerstoSET/GETtheRF
transmittingpowerlevelofanodeandtestspecificlinksbetweennodes.

class:0x75COMMAND_CLASS_PROTECTION
TheProtectionCommandClassisusedtoprotectthedevicebeingcontrolledunintentionalorunwantedby
e.g.achild.Whenthisisappliedthepushbuttonwillnotwork.

ThiscanbesetusingthePROTECTION_SETcommand.Thefollowingthreeprotectionstatescanbeused:
0x00:Unprotected–Thedeviceisnotprotectedandcanbeoperatednormallywiththepushbutton.

Troubleshooting

FrequentlyAskedQuestions

Q:Whydoesthepushbuttonontheswitchnotwork?
A: 1.CheckwhethertheProtectionisenabledornot.Ifitis,disabletheprotectionandtryagain.
Formoreinformationaboutdisablingtheprotectionpleaserefertothesupportingcommandclasses.
2.DuringtheNWIandtheinclusion/exclusionprocess,thepushbuttonwillnotwork.
3.CheckiftheiPlugDimis completely plugged intothesocket.

Q:Ican’thavemyiPlugDim included into my Z‐Wavenetwork,what amIdoingwrong?
A: 1.IsthecontrollerreadytoincludeanydeviceintotheZ‐Wavenetwork?Ifthecontrollerisnotin
Includeorexcludemode,theiPlugDim cannot be includedor excluded.
2.TheiPlugDimis already included into aZ‐Wave network. Excludetheswitchandtryto include it 
again.

Q:Whydoestheindicatorlightnotwork?
A: 1.Checkifthe iPlugDim is fullyplugged into asocket.Theindicatorlight willnotworkifthere is no
powersuppliedtotheiPlugDim. 
2.TheIndicatorlightisonlyonwhentheiPlugDim is loaded. Plug in a load.
