energy conservation.  Your Z-Wave

®

for single pole or 3-way applications such as chandeliers, foyer lights and outdoor flood lights and is a great addition 
to your Z-Wave

®

 network for lighting control.  In addition to indoor and outdoor lighting switches, thermostats, 

security systems, garage door openers and window shades are just a few of the items you can easily control with

®

 certified products.

Your new Z-Wave

®

 Enabled 3-Way 600 Watt In-Wall Dimmer Switch is compatible with the complete range of 

Wayne-Dalton Z-Wave

®

 certified controllers and will also work with Z-Wave

®

 certified controllers from other 

manufacturers and brands.  Please consult the user manual and your controller supplier for specific details.

Z-Wave® certified products will allow you to easily control multiple devices in a home with the push of a button in 
what is known as a “scene”.  Turning on your home’s interior lights and activating the set-back on your thermostat 
from your in-vehicle remote as you come home is an example of a scene.  Dimming the lights and automatically 
closing your curtains to watch TV with a single push of a button is another example of a scene.
To begin using Z-Wave

®

 Home Control technology it is helpful to understand that each Z-Wave

®

 module, including 

the Z-Wave

®

 Enabled 3-Way 600W In-Wall Dimmer Switch, communicate with each other using a low power radio 

transmitter and receiver.  Large metal objects, house wiring, walls, furniture, refrigerators, microwaves and similar 
items can interfere with communication between the modules to reduce the range or even prevent communication.  
Placement of the Z-Wave

®

 Enabled 3-Way 600W In-Wall Dimmer Switch and other Z-Wave

®

 modules is very 

important to obtain a reliable network.  
A Z-Wave

®

 network is a collection of Z-Wave

®

 modules in a mesh type of network.  Each Z-Wave

®

 module, 

regardless of manufacturer, communicates with other modules within range to route and repeat the signals from 
one device to the next, this creates a highly reliable and robust transmission throughout the home.  In addition, the 
network becomes stronger as more modules are added.
A Z-Wave

®

 network can have only one primary controller.  The primary controller establishes network security to 

ensure your network will not operate a neighbors network and vice-versa.  It is a good practice to label and protect 
your primary controller since it is the only Z-Wave

®

 controller that can add modules to or remove modules from your 

network.  It is easy to add secondary controllers as your network grows.  Your Z-Wave

®

 Enabled 3-Way 600W In-

Wall Dimmer Switch can belong to only one network, and therefore only one primary controller, but it can be added 
to as many secondary controllers or Z-Wave

®

 “scenes” as you wish for added convenience.

For more tips and great ideas on how to create, set-up and use scenes for safety, security, comfort, convenience,
