Aeon Labs Micro Smart Energy Switch 
(In-Wall Z-Wave Appliance Module w/ Energy Monitor) 
Introduction: 
The Aeon Labs Micro Smart Energy  Switch  is a  low-cost  Z-
Wave appliance switch  specifically  used  to  enable  Z-Wave 
command and control (on/off) for existing in-wall switches. 
It can also report immediate wattage consumption or kWh 
energy usage over a period of time. 
The wireless module is powered from the mains supply and 
is a three-wire design which requires a neutral connection. 
In the event of power failure, non-volatile memory retains 
all programmed information relating to the units operating 
status. 
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. 
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. 
In-Wall Electrical Installation Instructions
: 
IMPORTANT:  A  licensed  electrician  with  knowledge  and 
understanding  of  electrical  systems  and  electrical  safety 
should  complete  the  electrical  installation inside  the  main 
circuit box (usually located outside of your house). 
IMPORTANT:
 The electricity to the circuit must be shut off 
during  installation  for  safety  and  to  ensure  that wires  are 
not  shortcircuited  during  insallation  which  will  cause 
damage to the Micro Module. 
The  Aeon  Labs  Micro  Smart  Energy  Switch  must  first  be 
powered by a 3-wire system in order to operate. The wiring 
diagram is as follows: 
Z-Wave Network Instructions: 
The Aeon Labs Micro 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 Micro Smart Energy Switch will blink if 
it is currently not paired into a Z-Wave network. 
•  Adding/Including/Pairing the Micro Smart Energy 
Switch into a Z-Wave Network 
1.  Press the button labeled “Include” on  the Aeon Labs 
Minimote to begin the Z-Wave inclusion process. 
Note:  To include  the  Aeon  Labs  Micro  Smart  Energy 
Switch  with  other  controllers,  please  consult  the 
operation  manual  for  these  controllers  on  how  to 
include  Z-Wave  products  into  an  existing  network. 
For  instructions  on  select  partner  gateways,  visit 
www.aeon-labs.com/support. 
2.  While the Micro Smart Energy Switch is powered in a 
3-wire  system,  press  the  button  located  near  the 
Status  Indication  LED.    Or  alternatively,  the  external 
switch/button control can be pressed 6 times in quick 
succession. 
Troubleshooting:  If  the  Aeon  Labs  Micro  Smart  Energy 
Switch  was  not  successfully  included  into  any  Z-Wave 
network, the LED will be blinking slowly continually.  If the 
Aeon  Labs  Micro  Smart  Energy  Switch  was  successfully 
included to a Z-Wave network, the Status Indication LED will 
either be solid on or off (depending on if the switch is on or 
off) 10 seconds after the button was last pressed. 
•  Removing/Resetting the Micro Smart Energy Switch 
from your Z-Wave Network 
1.  Press the button labeled “Remove” on the Aeon Labs 
Minimote Stick to begin the Z-Wave removal process. 
Note:  To  include  the Aeon  Labs  Micro  Smart  Energy 
Switch  with  other  controllers,  please  consult  the 
operation  manual  for  these  controllers  on  how  to 
include  Z-Wave  products  into  an  existing  network. 
For  instructions  on  select  partner  gateways,  visit 
www.aeon-labs.com/support. 
2.  While the Micro Smart Energy Switch is powered in a 
3-wire  system,  press  the  button  located  near  the 
Status  Indication  LED.    Or  alternatively,  the  external 
switch/button control can be pressed 6 times in quick 
succession. 
Troubleshooting:  If  the  Aeon  Labs  Micro  Smart  Energy 
Switch was  removed from the Z-Wave network, the Status 
Indication  LED  will  be  blinking.    If  the  Aeon  Labs  Smart 
Energy  Switch  was  not  successfully  removed  from  the  Z-
Wave network, the Status Indication LED will either be solid 
on  or  off  (depending  on  if  the  switch  is  on  or  off)  10 
seconds after the button was last pressed. 
•  Turning On/Off the Micro Smart Energy Switch 
Use any  of the  below methods to  allow power  through  or 
cut power from the Micro Smart Energy Switch. 
o  Pressing  the  button  on  the  external  (Wall) 
switch will be able to toggle power flow (on/off) 
through 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 
Binary Switch  Command Class.)   Please consult 
the  operation  manual  for  these  controllers  for
