Introduction
The MIMOlite Module is an interface / bridge module, capable of converting a wired or wireless input to a wired or wireless output. The MIMO
is a Z-Wave
TM
Wireless device compatible with other Z-Wave
TM
certified products. MIMOlite comes in a plastic enclosure for indoor use only.
Specifications
Power: 12-16 VDC @~ 300mA
Frequency Range: 908.4MHz (US); 868.4MHz (EU)
Distance Range: Max 100ft line of sight in unobstructed environment
Enclosure Size (L x W x D): 3 3/8" (85mm) x 2 1/2" (64mm) x 1 1/4" (30mm)
Weight: 4 oz (100 gram)
Operating Temperature: -10⁰C (14F) to +70⁰C (158F)
Input Signal 1 (SIG1): Digital or Analog Input, 0 to 16V DC, 16 Hz Max for pulse counting (min. 32
ms high or low time). The trigger levels and hysteresis can be set via the Configuration Command Class. The
input can be a dry contact closure (see open/shorted characteristics in Technical Appendix).
Input Signal Impedance Input impedance for SIG1 is Z=66 ohm at 10KHz. This impedance is = 66 ohm = 34 ohm + j 540uH.
Output Relay 1: SPDT, Max. Switching power of 120W; 10uA to 10A; High Dielectric strength coil-contacts: 1,000 VAC;
Open contacts: 750 VAC; Conforms to FCC Part 68 requirements; Ag + Au clad bifurcated contacts fully sealed.
System Requirement: Any Z-Wave
TM
-enabled network and controller.
Overview
The MIMOlite module provides one analog or digital input and one relay output (isolated dry contacts, NO-COM-NC) and can be controlled by Z-
Wave
TM
. The system includes a program switch for Z-Wave
TM
inclusion/exclusion and a status light (LED) for various indications.
Input SIG1 is an analog input, internally pulled-up to the MIMOlite supply voltage. The system allows trigger conditions to be set based on the
input voltage being inside or outside a user-defined range (configured via Z-Wave). This provides great flexibility for capturing events in a wide
variety of applications. The trigger status of the input can be read via Z-Wave
TM
and/or can be automatically sent to a configured node, typically
the Controller. In addition, a count of the trigger events that have occurred for the input channel is internally recorded (and stored in the ‘pulse
count’) and is available to be requested or automatically sent via Z-Wave. The current triggered/un-triggered status can also be read via Z-
Wave. The SIG1 input can be associated with up to two other Z-Wave
TM
devices, such that an associated device will automatically turn on (or
off) based on the occurrence of a trigger event. Finally, the analog input channel can be configured so that the analog input level (not just binary
trigger status) is periodically sent to up to two other associated nodes.
The output relay is typically commanded via Z-Wave
TM
commands. In addition, the user can configure the input SIG1 trigger condition to be
mapped to the output relay. For example, Relay 1 can be automatically turned on based on Input SIG1 being triggered. The relay activation can
be set via a jumper or via Z-Wave
TM
for either momentary or latched operation - see Installation section.
Warnings and Precautions
* The dry contact relays are not capable of supporting higher-than-specified loads. Exceeding the specified switching power will cause damage to
the unit and may cause damage to property and/or personal injury, including loss-of-life.
* WARNING – Do not attempt to use the relays to switch residential or industrial Alternating Current (AC) lines. The relays are to be
used for low-power load control only. Refer to above electrical specifications for relays.
* Do not store highly flammable items such as oily rags or other combustibles near your MIMOlite.
* Do not apply electrical power to the unit unless the unit is fully assembled.
* Install unit in accordance with electrical codes and regulations. In case you are unsure about any parts of these instructions consult an
electrician or Z-Wave
TM
home automation specialist.
* Disconnect power source before working on or servicing the unit. Failure to do so could result in personal injury.
* WARNING - The MIMOlite must not be used in life support and / or safety applications.
