Aeon Labs Smart Energy Switch
(Z-Wave Appliance Module w/ Energy Monitor)
Introduction:
The Aeon Labs Smart Energy Switch is a Z-Wave appliance
switch which can report wattage energy usage or kWh
energy usage to a Z-Wave gateway. It can also be controlled
by other Z-Wave devices to turn on/off to save electricity
when appropriate.
It also is a repeater in the Z-Wave network. Acting as a
bridge for communication, it will forward Z-Wave command
messages to their destinations if the originating controller is
out of range from the destination node.
With an unobtrusive small form factor, the Aeon Labs Smart
Energy Switch will not block other nearby AC outlets.
By taking advantage of the Z-Wave mesh network,
commands can be routed to their destination via
intermediary “listening” Z-Wave products. Products that are
Z-Wave certified can be used and communicate with other Z-
Wave certified devices.
Z-Wave Network Instructions:
The Aeon Labs Smart Energy Switch must be paired (included)
into a Z-Wave network before it can receive Z-Wave
commands to turn on/off and report its energy usage. The
smart energy switch can only communicate to devices within
it’s own z-wave network.
Note
: The LED on the Smart Energy Switch will blink if it is
currently not paired into a Z-Wave network.
• Adding/Including/Pairing the Smart Energy Switch
into a Z-Wave Network
1. Press the button on the Aeon Labs Z-Stick to begin the
Z-Wave inclusion process.
OR
Press the button labeled “Include” on the Aeon Labs

2. While the Smart Energy Switch is plugged into the
outlet, press the button located between the LED.
Troubleshooting: If the Aeon Labs Smart Energy Switch
was not successfully included into any Z-Wave network,
the LED will be blinking. If the Aeon Labs Smart Energy
Switch was successfully included to a Z-Wave network,
the LED will either be on or off (depending on if the
switch is on or off).
• Removing/Resetting the Smart Energy Switch from
your Z-Wave Network
1. Hold the button on the Aeon Labs Z-Stick to begin the
Z-Wave removal process.

or off (depending on if the switch is on or off).
• Turning On/Off the Smart Energy Switch
Use any of the below methods to allow power through or cut
power from the Smart Energy Switch.
o Through the usage of Z-Wave commands built
into Z-Wave certified controllers and gateways.
(The specific Z-Wave commands supporting this
function are the Basic Command Class and
