UNIVERSAL MODULE WITH 3 In 3 Out
The Universal Module is used to translate wired products into wireless Z-Wave protocol, integrating them into the Z-Wave network of a smarthome environment. It has 3 sets of input terminals and 3 sets of relay output. Through the Universal Module, the Z-Wave Controller can read the input signal from wired sensors and control the output of wired actuators. This product can be operated in any Z-Wave network with other Z-Wave certified devices from other manufactures. All mains operated nodes within the network will act as repeater regardless of vender to increase reliability of the network.
Main features:
- 3 sets of input terminals, supporting dry contact or analog input
- Threshold level can be set for each input
- Notifies controller when input triggers
- 3 sets of relay output terminals, delivering NC/NO dry contact output*
- Output can be set to activate automatically when input terminals trigger
- Backup battery during power loss
- Notifies controller if power loss/recovers and when backup battery becomes low
- Tamper switch to detect removal from its mount
- Supports Z-Wave S2 security protocol with security-enabled Controller
*Note: Do not connect the output to high voltage AC mains (100V AC/220V AC).
The SmartStart enabled products can be added into a Z-Wave network by scanning the Z-Wave QR code present on the product with a controller provide SmartStart include. No further action is required and the SmartStart product will be added automatically within 10 minutes of being switched on in the network vicinity. But users should use Auto or Manual Inclusion if their controller does not support SmartStart.

Adding to Z-Wave Network
Auto Inclusion
The Universal Module supports Auto Inclusion feature where it will automatically enter Inclusion mode when first powered up after a factory reset.
- Remove its battery cover
- Set the Z-Wave controller into Inclusion mode.
- Insert the battery into the battery compartment. Note the correct polarity of battery as indicated.
- The Status LED will start to blink. The duration of Inclusion mode is 30 seconds.
- The Inclusion process should be completed when the LED stops blinking.
Note: If you are connecting this unit to a Z-Wave Controller that utilizes the S2 security protocol, you may be asked by your controller to enter a 5-digit PIN that is unique to each unit. This can be found in one of two places:
- on the QR code label on the back of the unit
- on the insert card inside the packaging.
If Auto Inclusion fails, refer to the Troubleshooting section regarding Manual Inclusion.
Connecting wired devices

Troubleshooting
The table below lists the several steps involved when adding or removing the voice siren from the Z-Wave network.
Action/Status | Description | Indication |
| No node ID | The Z-Wave Controller does not allocate a node ID to the unit. | Stow Blink in Green, 2-second on, 2-second off |
| Auto Inclusion | The power is applied for the first time and no node ID has been stored in the module, or after executing reset. | |
| Manual Inclusion | 1. Put the Z-Wave Controller into inclusion mode. | |
| 2. Press the Link button 3 times within 1.5 seconds to put the unit into inclusion mode. |
| Exclusion | 1. Put the Z-Wave Controller into exclusion mode. | |
| 2. Press the Link button 3 times within 1.5 seconds to put the unit into exclusion mode. | ||
| Factory Reset (This procedure should only be used when the controller is inoperable.) | 1. Press the Link button 3 times within 1.5 seconds to put the unit into exclusion mode. | |
| 2.Within 1 second of step 1, press the Link button again and hold for 5 seconds. | ||
| 3. Node ID is excluded. The unit reverts to factory default state. | 2-second on, 2-second off For 2 minutes | |
| x Failed or successful results in including/excluding the ID can be viewed on the Z-Wave Controller. | ||
Note: If you are connecting this unit to a Z-Wave Controller that utilizes the S2 security protocol, you may be asked by your controller to enter a 5 digit PIN that is unique to each unit. This can be found in one of two places:
– on the QR code label on the back of the unit
– on the insert card inside the packaging
Table below lists tvaical aroblems encountered:
| Symptom | Possible Cause | Recommendation |
| Cannot carry out inclusion and association | Device has been paired to other Z-Wave controller. | 1. Perform Exclusion from other controller first then carry out inclusion with new controller. 2. Perform Factory Reset on device and then carry out Inclusion with new controller |
| Device is out of range. | 1. Relocate the controller closer to the unit. 2. Install a Z-Wave repeater such as smart plugs or other AC devices that can operate as a Repeater. |
