Control multiple lights and appliances in and around your house with a controller that doesn't even need to be plugged in. By using radio frequency technology, Z-Wave components require no wiring, and since each module includes a repeater function, adding more modules to your Z-Wave network actually improves reliability. The Z-Wave Master Remote Controller will manage up to 192 Z-Wave devices and is powered only by four AA batteries (sold separately). Note: Z-Wave technology is not X10 compatible.
Home automation provides instant control of lights or appliances. By connecting a fluorescent light or an appliance to a Z-Wave Plug-in Appliance Module, you'll be able to control it remotely using a radio-frequency controller, so no wires need to be run, and you won't have to rely on power lines to get your commands to your appliance. The appliance module accepts timed signals, so you can schedule your fluorescent light to turn on at dusk, convenient if you're away from home. By using radio frequency technology, Z-Wave components require no wiring, and since each module includes a repeater function, adding more modules to your Z-Wave network actually improves reliability.
Forget to turn on the porch light at night? With GE's Z-Wave Outdoor Module you can control your outdoor lighting from the comfort of your home. Z-Wave is a radio frequency, mesh network technology specifically designed for use in residential lighting control. Every Z-Wave enabled wall switch is capable of relaying commands and utilizes two-way communications to ensure reliable operation throughout the entire home. The open-air, line-of-sight transmission distance is up to 100 feet between devices. Actual performance in a home will depend on the number of walls between the remote controller and the destination device, the type of construction and the number of devices installed in the system. The device's ability to relay commands and acknowledge receipt of commands makes Z-Wave an ideal solution for automating and controlling lighting systems.
SPIRE RF Handheld Controller (RFHDCSG) is required as an installation tool for the programming and configuration of a Cooper Wiring Devices’ Z-Wave® network. The Handheld Controller is battery operated and used as a wireless controller to control and configure devices (dimmers, switches, receptacles, plug-in modules and accessories devices), scenes, events and system settings.
