This product can be included and operated in any Z-Wave network with other Z-Wave certifi ed devices from other manufacturers and/or other applications. All non-battery operated nodes within the network will act as repeaters regardless of vendor to increase reliability of the network.GoControl Z-Wave products are easy to install, are Z-Wave Plus certifi ed, and allow dealers to create an integrated wireless network with nearly limitless expansion and interoperability with security, energy management, home entertainment, appliances, and more.DANGER! SHOCK HAZARD. Read and understand these instructions before installing. This device is intended for installation in accordance with the National Electric code and local regulations in the United States, or the Canadian Electrical Code and local regulations in Canada. It is recommended that a qualifi ed electrician perform this installation. Make sure the load controlled by the switch does not exceed 1800 watts. For indoor use only. Retain instructions for future use.Z-WAVE PLUS FEATURESThe WS15Z5-1 contains a Z-Wave 500 Series Module that supports Z-Wave Plus® features. A Z-Wave certifi ed portable or stationary Controller can communicate with the Z-Wave 500 Series Module.Depending on the capability of the Controller or gateway software, the following operations can be performed with the WS15Z5-1. Refer to the Controller or gateway manual for details.•  Turn the load ON and OFF.•  Add or Remove the WS15Z5-1.•  Assign the WS15Z5-1 to a specific Group/Scene and/or to include the load as part of ALL ON or ALL OFF system commands.•  Over-the-air firmware update by the gateway or static Controller.•  Lifeline function which automatically notifies the associated modules and the network that a manually reset device is no longer in the network, thus, the corresponding association becomes invalid.INSTALLATIONWire this switch in place of a current wall switch according to the diagram above. When used, WS15Z5-1’s are required to be wired to the same line (or neutral) which is also wired to the load being controlled, and not wired to any other neutral. If multiple neutrals are tied together in one box, separate the neutrals to preserve the integrity of the WS15Z5-1 circuit. ✓CAUTION! Do not wire unit “live” (with power on the circuit).Adding to a network:Refer to your Controller operating instructions to add this switch under the command of the Wireless Controller.1.  With your Controller in Discovery or Add Mode, tap the switch. The LED will blink slowly when in ADD Mode.2.  You should see an indication on your Controller that the “device was added” to the network and the LED will stop blinking.3.  The device will appear in the list of Switches. It should display as a switch.If the Controller/Gateway shows the addition failed, repeat Steps 1-3. ✓NOTE:  If you have trouble adding the WS15Z5-1 to a group it may be that the Home ID and Node ID were not cleared from it after testing. You must fi rst “RESET UNIT” to remove it from the network. Although adding it to a group includes it in the network, removing it from a group does not remove it from the network. If removed from a group, it functions as a repeater (only). “RESET UNIT” removes it completely from the network.To Reset Unit (If Required):In the event that your primary Controller is lost or otherwise inoperable, to reset the WS15Z5-1 and clear all network information, follow these steps:1.  Tap the top of the switch fi ve (5) times.2.  Press and hold the bottom of the switch for 15 seconds. The LED will increasingly blink faster to indicate that a Reset is taking place.Removing from a network:The WS15Z5-1 can be removed from the network by the Controller/Gateway. Refer to the Controller operating instructions for details.1.  Set the Controller into Removal Mode and follow its instruction to delete the WS15Z5-1 from the Controller.2.  Remove the switch by tapping the paddle 2 times. The LED will begin blinking slowly for 10 seconds indicating that it has been removed.3.  You should see an indication on your Controller that the “device was removed” from the network.BASIC OPERATION(Local Control)The switch paddle on the WS15Z5-1 allows the user to:•  Turn the attached load on or off.•  Tapping top of switch turns the load attached ON.•  Tapping bottom of switch turns the load attached OFF.LED IndicationTo act as a night light, the LED on the WS15Z5-1 will turn ON when the load attached is OFF. However, the LED can be user confi gured to turn ON, when the load attached is ON, if so desired. See “CONFIGURATION” section.Remote ControlThe WS15Z5-1 will respond to BASIC and BINARY commands that are part of the Z-Wave system. Refer to your Controller’s instructions as to whether your Controller can transmit those commands.PRINTER’S INSTRUCTIONS:INSTR,INSTL,WS15Z5-1; P/N: 10007259 X5; INK: BLACK; MATERIAL: 20# MEAD BOND; SIZE: 8.500” x 11.000”; TOLERANCE ± .125”; SCALE: 1-1; PAGE 1 OF 2WS15Z5-1Z-Wave Radio Frequency (RF) Controlled, 120 VAC Scene and NWI Capable, Wall Mounted Switch, Series 500NEUTRAL120 VACPUSH ON WHITELINE BLACKPUSH OFFSTATUS LEDGREEN GROUNDTAP TOP OR BOTTOMOF SWITCH PADDLETO CONFIGURE SCORED TAB WILL BREAK FLUSH WITH EDGE OF PLASTICBLUELOAD15 AMPSMAXIMUMWS15Z5-1 AND THE LOADMUST SHARE THE SAMEPROPRIETARY NEUTRALShown with supplied decorative trim plateNOTE: This unit must be added to the Network only where it will be permanently installed.

2AssociationsThe WS15Z5-1 supports one Group with fi ve Nodes for lifeline communication. Group 1 must be assigned the Node ID of the Controller to which unsolicited notifi cations from the WS15Z5-1 will be sent. The Z-Wave Controller should set this Association automatically after inclusion. You can associate up to fi ve Z-Wave devices to Group 1. Lifeline Association only supports the “manual reset” event.For instructions on how to “set Lifeline Association” please refer to your wireless Controller instructions.Creating Associations1.  Learn all devices into the Z-Wave Hub.2.  Tap the paddle of the WS15Z5-1 four times quickly to enter Association mode. The LED will begin to blink quickly (twice per second).3.  Tap the paddle of the switch or device you want to Associate to the WS15Z5-1 three times.4.  Repeat Step #3 for up to 5 total dimmers and / or switches within 60 seconds of entering Association mode.5.  Association mode will turn off after 60 seconds.Although the Associations are now functional, it is recommended that you refer to your Hubs instructions to “Poll” or “Heal” the Z-Wave network to recognize the new Associations.Removing AssociationsTo remove the Associations, if the Hub has recognized the Associations, refer to the Z-Wave Hub’s instructions on how to remove Associations. If the Hub has not recognized the Associations, removing the WS15Z5-1 from the Z-Wave network will eliminate the Associations.ADVANCED OPERATIONAll On/All OffThe WS15Z5-1 supports the ALL ON / ALL OFF commands. The WS15Z5-1 can be set to respond to ALL ON and ALL OFF commands four different ways.Refer to your Controller for information on how to set the WS15Z5-1 to operate in the manner you desire. Some Controllers may be only able to set certain settings of ALL ON/ALL OFF response.The four different ways the WS15Z5-1 can be setup to respond to ALL ON and ALL OFF commands are:1.  Responds to ALL ON or the ALL OFF command.2.  Responds to ALL OFF command but will not respond to ALL ON command.3.  Responds to ALL ON command but will not respond to ALL OFF command.4.  Responds to ALL ON and the ALL OFF command.CONFIGURATIONThe WS15Z5-1 supports the Confi guration  command. Each unit can be confi gured to operate slightly differently than how it works when you fi rst install it. Using the Confi guration command you can confi gure the following:Night LightBy default, the LED on the WS15Z5-1 will turn OFF when the load attached is turned ON.
