Using RF technology allows Leviton to provide the greatest signal integrity possible. Each module in Leviton’s Vizia RF +™ component line is a Z-Wave® enabled device. In a Z-Wave® network, each device is designed to act as a router. These routers will re-transmit the RF signal from one device to another until the intended device is reached. This ensures that the signal is received by its intended device by routing the signal around obstacles and radio dead spots. The Scene Capable Electronic Switch is compatible with any Z-Wave® enabled network, regardless of the manufacturer and can also be used with other devices displaying the Z-Wave® logo.CAUTION:Remember to exercise good common sense when using the Timer features of your Remote – especially when scheduling unattended devices. There can be some unexpected consequences if not used with care. For example, an empty coffee pot can be remotely turned on. If that should happen, your coffee pot could be damaged from overheating. If an electric heater is turned on by remote control while clothing is draped over it, a fire could result. DO NOT USE the remote for the control of high power heating appliances such as portable heaters. This device will not control lighting that is used with electronic low-voltage and high frequency power supply transformers, nor high pressure discharge lamps (HID lighting). This includes mercury-vapor, sodium vapor and metal halide lamps.• Switch ON/OFF • Scene Capable• ON/OFF LED• Two way communication • RF reliability• Ease of installation – No new wiring• Compatible with other Z-Wave® enabled devices FEATURES INTRODUCTIONBKRDWHYL/RDBKRDYL/RD3214TerminalScrew marked White (WH)TerminalScrew markedYellow/Red(YL/RD)5Coordinating Remote Switch4315TerminalScrew markedRed (RD)TerminalScrew markedWhite (WH)2TerminalScrew markedBlack (BK)TerminalScrew markedYellow/Red(YL/RD)Hot (Black)Neutral (White)Vizia + Remote (no LED)YL/RD YL/RDRDWHRDBKBlackBKWHWhiteLine 120VAC, 60HzGreenGroundGreenGround(unused)(unused)LoadSwitch3-Way Wiring with Coordinating Remote (no LED) Application: Step 4b Step 4b cont’dWIRING SWITCH:Connect wires per WIRING DIAGRAM as follows:NOTE: The switch must be installed in a wall box that has a Line Hot connection.NOTE: Maximum wire length from switch to all installed remotes cannot exceed 300 ft (90 m).• Green or bare copper wire in wall box to Green terminal screw.• Line Hot (common) wall box wire identified (tagged) when removing old switch to terminal screw marked "BK".• First Traveler wall box wire to terminal screw marked "RD" (note wire color).• Remove Red insulating label from terminal screw marked "YL/RD".• Second Traveler wall box wire to terminal screw marked "YL/RD" (note wire color).

Step 9 Excluding Switch from Z-Wave® Network:NOTE: It is very important to accurately Exclude devices from the network when moving or removing a device from a Z-Wave® network. This ensures that all information has been removed from your Primary Programmer/Controller's information table and is not counted on to be part of the mesh network.A) If using a Leviton Z-Wave® Programmer/Controller, Cat. No. VRCPG, press the Menu button and scroll down to System Setup. Press the center button to select System Setup Menu. Choose Advanced Settings. Press the center button to select Network.B) While standing close to the switch (approximately 1 foot), press the center button to <Exclude> device from the network.C) While the Programmer/Controller is in the Exclusion mode and the locator LED is ON on the Dimmer, press the push pad to turn on the switch. The Programmer/Controller will verify Exclusion and the locator LED will turn OFF. If the switch is flashing Amber while in the Exclusion mode, the Programmer/Controller is still trying to communicate with the switch. Wait until the device stops flashing, then press the push pad.Factory Default:If your switch is not responding, or you are unable to control it after you have tried to Include/Exclude it multiple times, it may be necessary to reset the switch to its original factory settings. To accomplish this, proceed as follows:• On the switch, engage the air-gap switch by gently pressing the top of the push pad until the bottom lifts completely out of the frame and a click is heard (refer to figure). Wait 5 seconds and then press the push pad back into the frame and hold push pad until the locator LED turns Amber and then flashes Red. The switch is now reset. Once the switch is reset, it will be necessary to Re-Include it to a network before it can be used.CAUTION: SETTING A DEVICE TO A FACTORY DEFAULT DOES NOT EXCLUDE THAT DEVICE FROM A NETWORK. THE EXCLUSION PROCEDURE MUST STILL BE FOLLOWED TO REMOVE THE DEVICE FROM THE PRIMARY CONTROLLER’S INFORMATION TABLE. FAILURE TO DO SO MAY RESULT IN SYSTEM THAT IS SLOW TO RESPOND, OR MAY FAIL TO RESPOND TO SOME DEVICES. Step 8 Including Switch into Z-Wave® Network:NOTES:• If using a non-Leviton Programmer/Controller, refer to the Programmer/Controller instruction sheet for Including a device.• If using VRCPG install checklist go directly to step B.A) If using a Leviton Z-Wave® Programmer/Controller, Cat.
