Product Description

The Aeon Labs mini remote control can control a variety of Z-Wave compatible devices such as switches, dimmers, window blinds and motion sensors. The device can include and exclude devices, group them and set and release associations. The mini remote only offers four control buttons for scene selection. Behind a slider there are four more buttons for Z-Wave network control. A non-replaceable but rechargeable battery powers the remote control. Recharging is done on a conventional USB bus using the charging cable provided. The product is in the color white.

Installation

The device is ready for use. In case there are no LED signals when hitting the buttons the device needs to be recharged using the USB cable provided.

Product Usage

The Minimote has 4 scene control buttons. A scene defines a certain switching state for a number of devices connected to this scene. A single click on the scene button will then turn all these devices into the desired switching state. Below the cover there are 4 dedicated buttons for network management. The Minimote can manage a Z-Wave network as primary controller. However it is also possible to reconfigure all 8 buttons for other functions e.g. activating a scene in a different controller.

Special Operations as Z-Wave Controller

As long as this device is not included into a Z-Wave network of a different controller it is able to manage its own Z-Wave network as primary controller. As a primary controller the device can include and exclude other devices in its own network, manage associations, and reorganize the network in case of problems. The following controller functions are supported:

Inclusion of other devices

Communication between two Z-Wave devices only works if both belong to the same wireless network. Joining a network is called inclusion and is initiated by a controller. The controller needs to be turned into the inclusion mode. Once in this inclusion mode the other device needs to confirm the inclusion - typically by pressing a button.

If current primary controller in your network is in special SIS mode this and any other secondary controller can also include and exclude devices.

To become primary a contoller have to be resetted and then include a device.

Click the "Inclusion" button to start the inclusion mode.

If inclusion of a new device fails, first exclude it from its previous network or reset it.

Exclusion of other devices

The primary controller can exclude devices from the Z-Wave network. During exclusion the relationship between the device and the network of this controller is terminated. No communication between the device and other devices still in the network can happen after a successful exclusion. The controller needs to be turned into the exclusion mode. Once in this exclusion mode the other device needs to confirm the exclusion - typically by pressing a button.

Attention: Removing a device from the network means that it is turned back into factory default status. This process can also exclude devices from it's previous network.

Click the "Exclusion" button to start the exclusion mode.

Attention: Removing a device from the network means that it is turned back into factory default status. This process can also exclude devices from its previous network.

Shift of Primary Controller Role

The device can hand over its primary role to another controller and become secondary controller.

The primary shift is initiated on the device by pressing the "Learn" button.
