Plug the Lamp Moduleinto a wall outlet and plug a lamp into the Lamp Module.   Inclusion of the Lamp Module on the ZTH100, RF RemoteTransmitter menu allows remote ON/OFF control and dimming of lamps connected.This plug-in Lamp Module is designed to work with other HomePro lamp and appliance controls.  Z-Wave nodes ofother types can be added to the system and will also act as repeaters if they support this function of repeating the signalreceived to other modules in the system.As part of a HomePro network, the ZDP100 can act as a wireless repeater to insure that commands intended foranother device in the network are received.  This is useful when the device would otherwise be out of the radio rangeof the remote controller.INSTALLATIONPlug this Lamp Module into the wall outlet near the lamp to be controlled, and plug the lamp into the Lamp Module.Follow instructions in section 4.2.1 of the Remote Transmitter Operating instructions to add this module under thecontrol of the Remote Transmitter.  Make sure the lamp(s) to be controlled total no more than 300 watts.  WARNING:Plugging a non-resistive load such as florescent lighting or a device with a motor may result in damage to the LampModule and will void the warranty.Lamp Module ButtonThe Lamp Module has a button on the face (see picture above) that switches an attached lamp ON and OFF, andadjusts its dimming level by holding it down,  and it is also used to configure the module to operate from the remotetransmitter.  With the Remote Transmitter, the Lamp Module can be switched ON and OFF, and can be includedin groups of lights (a group can also be a single module) that operate at the same time, and in scenes that set alighting mood.Switch power ON and OFFWhen the button is pressed and released quickly, the power will toggle. This means that power will be turned OFFif it was ON and turned ON if it was OFF. When switching the Lamp Module ON or OFF, the light will dim UP (orDOWN) in approximately 2 seconds until the final level is reached.DimmingIf the button is constantly pressed the light will be dimmed. The dimming function will also toggle. Constantlypressing the button the Lamp Module will dim either UP or DOWN until it reaches the maximum or minimum value.The second time the button is held down, the dimming will change direction. When the power level reaches eitherfull power or minimum power the dimming will stop until the button has been released and is pressed again.  Button functions1.  Adds module under the control of Remote Transmitter.2.  Local ON and OFF (push and release).3.  Local dimming (hold down).
ZDP100 Instructions071202 HomeProby ADVANCED CONTROL TECHNOLOGIES, INC.2Child ProtectionThe Lamp Module can be set in a child protect mode by the Remote Transmitter (see section 4.4 of RemoteTransmitter instructions). When this mode is active, a user will have to press the button on the Lamp Module 3 timesrapidly to activate the attached load. The module operates normally when controlled by the Remote Transmitter.Other functionsThe button on the Lamp Module also plays a role when resetting and adding to groups and scenes. This is describedin more detail in Section 4.2 and 4.2.2 of the Remote Transmitter instructions.Software fuseThis Lamp Module is designed to protect itself against loads that exceed it’s maximum power rating.  Theapplication of a load that exceeds that rating is quickly sensed by the dimmer and it responds by immediatelyshutting off all power to that load.If the dimmer doesn’t seem to work, or if it only works momentarily, check to see that the total lamp wattage doesn’texceed the 300W rating of the Lamp Module.  If a properly sized load is restored to the dimmer, it can be operatednormally once again.Over-current protectionThe Lamp Module hardware has an over current detection circuit, which is final protection against overload.If the software fuse should fail to shut down the dimmer when overloaded, backup protection is provided by aninternal fuse.  This fuse is not user serviceable.  Check your home circuit breakers before concluding that theproduct must be returned to manufacturer for repair at a nominal charge.Operation NoteWhen a light bulb reaches the end of it’s life and burns out, it sometimes creates a momentary short circuit.  Thehigh current that results may cause the dimmer to properly respond by turning off.   Should this happen, replacethe bulb with a new one.  The dimmer can now be operated to restore power to the light.Note:  This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuantto part 15 of the FCC Rules.
