 Operating range: Up to 100 feet (30.5 meters) line-of-sight
 Operating temperature: 0˚C to 49˚C, 32˚F to 120˚F (ambient temperature)
 Battery type: 3V Lithium CR123A
 Battery life: 5 to 8 years depending upon operating conditions
Network Inclusion
The sensor must be added to a Z-Wave network prior to use. To
include the sensor in a network both the sensor and the network controller must be in inclusion mode at the same time. Refer to the
instructions provided by the manufacturer of your specific controller for details on initiating the controller’s inclusion mode.
STEP ONE Start by placing the controller into inclusion mode.
STEP TWO Activate inclusion mode for the sensor by inserting the battery. When the inclusion process is complete the red
LED will turn on for approximately 10 seconds and then it will go out. If the LED continues to flash, repeat the
inclusion process.
STEP THREE Test the garage door sensor before mounting it. Hold the sensor in your hand. Flip the sensor upside-
down and watch the LED while doing so. The LED will flash each time the position of the sensor is changed. If
your Z-Wave network has a software interface you may verify that the messages from the sensor are being
received each time the sensor is flipped.
Notes: If you need to repeat the inclusion process, repeat STEP ONE above, then for STEP TWO you will need to simply remove the cover of the sensor, remove the
battery for 5 seconds, reinsert the battery, and replace the sensor cover. This will re-enter the sensor in inclusion mode.
