The product documentation states a Security Enabled Z-Wave Controller must be used in order to fully utilize the product. Smart Energy Plug In Switch is a security enabled wireless switch, based on Z-Wave Plus technology. Z-Wave Plus enabled devices displaying the Z-Wave Plus logo can also be used with it regardless of the manufacturer, and can also be used in other manufacturer’s Z-Wave enabled networks. Remote On/Off control of the connected load is possible with other manufacturer’s wireless Controller. Each switch is designed to act as a repeater.
Repeaters will re-transmit the RF signal to ensure that the signal is received by its intended destination by routing the signal around obstacles and radio dead spots. Because the Switch supports Security Command Class, it can learn with Secured controller. Its functionality and supported command classes is identical when included as a secure and non-secure device. This Smart Energy Plug In Switch is able to detect instance wattage (3000W/230Vac) (13Ampere) and overload current (14.5A with resistive load) of connected lights or appliances. When detecting overload state, the Switch will be disabled and its On/Off button will be lockout of which LED will flash quickly. However, unplug and reconnect the switch will reset its overload condition to normal status.
