Important safety information
Please read this manual carefully. Failure to follow the recommendations in this manual may be dangerous or may violate the law. The manufacturer, importer, distributor and seller shall not be liable for any loss or damage resulting from failure to comply with the instructions in this manual or any other material. Use this equipment only for its intended purpose. Follow the disposal instructions. Do not dispose of electronic equipment or batteries in a fire or near open heat sources.What is Z-Wave?
Z-Wave is the international wireless protocol for communication in the Smart Home. This device is suited for use in the region mentioned in the Quickstart section.
Z-Wave ensures a reliable communication by reconfirming every message (two-way communication) and every mains powered node can act as a repeater for other nodes (meshed network) in case the receiver is not in direct wireless range of the transmitter.
This device and every other certified Z-Wave device can be used together with any other certified Z-Wave device regardless of brand and origin as long as both are suited for the same frequency range.
If a device supports secure communication it will communicate with other devices secure as long as this device provides the same or a higher level of security. Otherwise it will automatically turn into a lower level of security to maintain backward compatibility.

Product Description
The Standalone 1-10V Dimmer is a control voltage dimmer for concealed in-wall mounting. The device is exclusively Z-Wave controllable, which can handle 1-10V dimmable loads up to 1000W. All dimmer properties are configurable, making it possible to accurately customize the dimmer to the properties of the controlled Light Fixtures.The device supports power measurement, reporting both instant and accumulated power consumption over time.
Prepare for Installation / Reset
Please read the user manual before installing the product.
In order to include (add) a Z-Wave device to a network it must be in factory default state. Please make sure to reset the device into factory default. You can do this by performing an Exclusion operation as described below in the manual. Every Z-Wave controller is able to perform this operation however it is recommended to use the primary controller of the previous network to make sure the very device is excluded properly from this network.
Reset to factory default
This device also allows to be reset without any involvement of a Z-Wave controller. This procedure should only be used when the primary controller is inoperable.
WARNING! Executing a Factory Reset on a device may make it stop working as wanted, and will disable remote control of the device. The device will have to be re-added to the Z-Wave network and reconfigured afterwards, to regain the previous operation of the device. Please DO NOT execute this procedure unless it is absolutely necessary.Push and Hold the Add/Remove button for about 15 secondsuntil the LED indicator turns OFF. Then release the button. The device is now Factory Reset, and removed from the Z-Wave network.The button is located about 10 mm down in the middle of the three holes on the front. A thin tool (a very small screwdriver, a toothpick, a paper clip or similar) is needed to access the button.
Safety Warning for Mains Powered Devices
ATTENTION: only authorized technicians under consideration of the country-specific installation guidelines/norms may do works with mains power. Prior to the assembly of the product, the voltage network has to be switched off and ensured against re-switching.
Inclusion/Exclusion
On factory default the device does not belong to any Z-Wave network. The device needs to be added to an existing wireless network to communicate with the devices of this network. This process is called Inclusion.
Devices can also be removed from a network. This process is called Exclusion. Both processes are initiated by the primary controller of the Z-Wave network. This controller is turned into exclusion respective inclusion mode. Inclusion and Exclusion is then performed doing a special manual action right on the device.
Inclusion
To add the device to a Z-Wave network, the Z-Wave Controller must first be set into Add (Learn) mode. Then use a paperclip or a small pointy tool to push and hold the button in the button hole for approximately a second. The device LED will blink twice to indicate that it sends information to the Controller.Exclusion
To remove the device from a Z-Wave network, the Z-Wave Controller must first be set into Remove mode. Then use a paperclip or a small pointy tool to push and hold the button in the button hole for approximately a second. The device LED will blink twice to indicate that it sends information to the Controller.Quick trouble shooting
Here are a few hints for network installation if things dont work as expected.
- Make sure a device is in factory reset state before including. In doubt exclude before include.
- If inclusion still fails, check if both devices use the same frequency.
- Remove all dead devices from associations. Otherwise you will see severe delays.
- Never use sleeping battery devices without a central controller.
- Dont poll FLIRS devices.
- Make sure to have enough mains powered device to benefit from the meshing
Association - one device controls an other device
Z-Wave devices control other Z-Wave devices. The relationship between one device controlling another device is called association. In order to control a different device, the controlling device needs to maintain a list of devices that will receive controlling commands. These lists are called association groups and they are always related to certain events (e.g. button pressed, sensor triggers, ...). In case the event happens all devices stored in the respective association group will receive the same wireless command wireless command, typically a 'Basic Set' Command.
Association Groups:
| Group Number | Maximum Nodes | Description |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | 5 | The Lifeline group where all Root Device events are reported.All unsolicited Reports for the supported command classeswill be issued to this group.Commands Issued:- Sensor Multilevel Report - Reports Power Consumption andTemperatures- Meter - Reports power consumption to the Controller every15 minutes.- Device Reset LocallyReports factory resets to theController |
| 2 | 5 | Associated devices will be controlled according to local statechanges. Supports Multichannel Association in addition tostandard association.Command Issued: Basic Set |
Configuration Parameters
Z-Wave products are supposed to work out of the box after inclusion, however certain configuration can adapt the function better to user needs or unlock further enhanced features.
IMPORTANT: Controllers may only allow configuring signed values. In order to set values in the range 128 ... 255 the value sent in the application shall be the desired value minus 256. For example: To set a parameter to 200 it may be needed to set a value of 200 minus 256 = minus 56. In case of a two byte value the same logic applies: Values greater than 32768 may needed to be given as negative values too.
Parameter 1: Hardware Combination Identifier
READ-ONLY: Identifier which uniquely identifies the SE Devices hardware combination. Always return value 18 (0x12) for this device.See manuals for information regarding other SEdevices units. Size: 1 Byte, Default Value: 18
| Setting | Description |
|---|---|
| 18 | Hardware Combination Identifier |
Parameter 10: Dimming Speed
Defines the u0022fadeu0022 time when setting a dim level from a controller. Fade time is defined as the time it takes to dim from MIN level to MAX level, which means an increase of 10% in light level takes 1/10th of the configured time. The value defines the dim time in 1/100'th of a second, which means a value of 200 means the Dimming Speed is 2.0 seconds from MIN to MAX. Max time is 327.67 seconds (almost 5 and a half minute). Values below 30 (0.3 seconds) are ignored and values below 100 (1 second) are discouraged. Size: 2 Byte, Default Value: 300
