The Z-Wave®Enabled Thermostat is a new arrival into the Wayne-Dalton Z-Wave®product line and contains many new features that were not conceived when some Z-Wave®controllers were initially developed. The Wayne-Dalton Z-Wave®Enabled Thermostat has a special compatibility mode and is designed to work with your Z-Wave®network regardless of the manufacturer of your controller or its date of manufacture. When programming your thermostat to your controller, if it does not respond to the commands, reprogram it using the alternate programming method.

The Z-Wave®Enabled Thermostat is designed to live by your schedule rather than forcing you to live by the rigid schedule it was programmed with. Now you can program it to the “Away” Scene on a controller such as the Wireless Gateway and when you leave the house you can activate that Scene from your car to set-back your thermostat, then when you arrive home, you can activate the “Home” Scene to return the thermostat to your normal setting.

To begin using Z-Wave®Home Control technology it is helpful to understand that each Z-Wave®module, including the Z-Wave®Enabled Thermostat, communicate with each other using a low power radio transmitter and receiver. Large metal objects, house wiring, walls, furniture, refrigerators, microwaves and similar items can interfere with communication between the modules to reduce the range or even prevent communication. Placement of the Z-Wave®Enabled Thermostat and other Z-Wave®modules is very important to obtain a reliable network.

A Z-Wave®network is a collection of Z-Wave®modules in a mesh type of network. Each Z-Wave®module, regardless of manufacturer, communicates with other modules within range to route and repeat the signals from one device to the next, this creates a highly reliable and robust transmission throughout the home.

A Z-Wave®network can have only one primary controller. The primary controller establishes network security to ensure your network will not operate a neighbors network and vice-versa. It is a good practice to label and protect your primary controller since it is the only Z-Wave®controller that can add modules to or remove modules from your network. It is easy to add secondary controllers as your network grows. Your Z-Wave®Enabled Thermostat can belong to only one network, and therefore only one primary controller, but it can be added to as many secondary controllers or Scenes as you wish for added convenience.
