WIRING: READ IT!
- CHECK THE LOAD: lights only (100W for LED’s, 300W for incandescent), DON’T CONNECT THIS SWITCH TO OUTLETS OR TUBE LIGHTS.
- POWER OFF: turn the circuit power off in the breaker panel before you start. If installing in a multi-switch box with multiple circuits, turn the power off at all of the circuits.
- CHECK THE WIRES: mark load (most often black), line (most often black), neutral (most often white), and ground (most often bare). 14 AWG wires only! Don’t rely exclusively on your multimeter to identify the wires!
NOT SURE WHAT YOU’RE SEEING? WE’LL HELP! SUPPORT.GETZOOZ.COM SENDS US PICTURES OF YOUR SET-UP BEFORE YOU DISCONNECT WIRES. - REMOVE THE OLD SWITCH: disconnect the wires and label them with the included label stickers.
- CONNECT THE Z–WAVE SWITCH: follow all installation steps carefully. Wire the switch EXACTLY like in the diagram.
NOT SURE WHAT YOU’RE SEEING? WE’LL HELP! ZEN27 WIRING DIAGRAM FOR SINGLE POLE INSTALLATION
- Insert the ground (bare) wire into the ground terminal (not shown in the diagram)
- Insert the power source wire to the Line terminal and load wire to Load Load and the line CAN’T be swapped so make sure you identified them correctly!

- TIGHTEN: turn the screw clockwise to tighten At the wire. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN!
COMPLETE INSTALLATIONSecure your Z-Wave switch in the box with mounting screws, handling the wires with care.Install the wall plate and restore power to the circuit.TEST THE SWITCHThe LED indicator should light up as soon as you turn the power back on if the switch (light) is OFF. Tap the upper paddle for ON and the lower paddle for OFF. If the test fails, please check that:
- power is fully restored to the circuit
- wiring matches the instructions exactly
- the load isn’t too large and overheating the switch causing it to shut off

TROUBLESHOOTING
The switch won’t add to your system? Try this:
- Initiate EXCLUSION and tap the lower paddle 3 times quickly.
- Tap the upper paddle 4-5 times quickly when adding it.
- Bring the gateway controller (hub) closer to the switch, it may be out of range.
- Get troubleshooting tips for your hub at www.support.getzooz.com
The switch won’t control the lights manually anymore? Try this:
- Turn the power off at the breaker and check if a wire didn’t get loose.
- Exclude the switch from the hub or reset it in case manual control was accidentally disabled.
- The load may be incompatible so try it with a single incandescent bulb.
EXCLUSION (REMOVING / UNPAIRING DEVICE)
- Bring your Z-Wave gateway (hub) close to the switch if possible
- Put the Z-Wave hub into exclusion mode (not sure how to do that? [email protected])
- Tap the lower paddle on the switch 3 times quickly (the LED indicator will start blinking blue)
- Your hub will confirm exclusion, the LED indicator on the switch will turn green for 3 seconds, and the device will disappear from your controller’s device list
FACTORY RESET
If your primary controller is missing or inoperable, you may need to reset the device to factory settings. To complete the reset process manually, tap-tap-tap’n’hold the upper paddle (so tap twice quickly and hold the third time) for at least 10 seconds. The LED indicator will flash to confirm a successful reset.NOTE: All previously recorded activity and custom settings will be erased from the device’s memory.
ADVANCED SETTINGS
Please refer to your controller’s user guide for advanced programming instructions as they are a little different for every software.Not sure where to start?

STOP!Wire and screw position, as well as color codes, are for illustration only. You should not follow the colors and position in the illustration blindly. Always identify all wires prior to installing Zooz switches and make sure you can match the diagrams to your set-up exactly. Don’t experiment or attempt a “trial-and-error” installation for your own safety.NOTE!If you are not comfortable identifying the wiring and completing the installation, please consult a licensed electrician. Make sure you have identified all wiring correctly before connecting the switch. If your wiring doesn’t match any of the below diagrams, contact our support: [email protected]
ON/OFF SWITCHES ONLYDo not connect Zooz Z-Wave switches to an existing 3-way dimmer, illuminated switch, or an electronic add-on switch.Zooz switches can only be wired with mechanical on/off switches in an a-way or 4-way setting!To simplify the diagrams, we did not include connections for the ground wire. Remember that all Zooz switches need to be wired according to the electrical code, with ground wire connected to the ground terminal.Always install your Zooz S2 switch in the box with a direct connection to the power line. Diagrams and instructions in this manual are for ZEN26 and ZEN27 models ONLY!
