CAUTION

This is an electrical device - please use caution when installing and operating the MultiRelay. Remote control of appliances may result in unintentional or automated activation of power.

BEFORE YOU INSTALL: This device is intended for installation in accordance with the National Electric Code and local regulations. It is recommended that a licensed electrician perform this installation. USE A SINGLE POWER SOURCE AT ALL TIMES.

WARNING

  • This product should be installed indoors upon completion of any building renovations.

  • Prior to installation, the device should be stored in a dry, dust-and-mold-proof place.

  • Do not install the device in a place with direct sun exposure, high temperature, or humidity.

  • Keep away from chemicals, water, and dust.

  • Ensure the device is never close to any heat source or open flame to prevent fire.

  • Ensure the device is connected to an electric power source that does not exceed the maximum load power.

  • No part of the device may be replaced or repaired by the user.

WIRING TIPS

TAKE PICTURES: Before you disconnect any wires, document your set-up and send us images of your existing installation so we can help if needed.

GATHER YOUR TOOLS: Always use the correct screwdriver size for the terminal screws on your MultiRelay and wall switches (if connecting them). Use appropriate electrical tools when cutting, prepping, and stripping electrical wires. If you don’t have the necessary tools to perform the installation or are not sure which tools to use or how, please hire an electrician to complete the installation for you.

SAFETY FIRST: Follow the National Electrical Code and your local safety regulations when performing the installation, including (but not limited to), choosing the correct gauge of jumper wires. The recommended gauge for 15 Amp circuits is 14 AWG and 12 AWG for 20 Amp circuits.

WIRING: READ IT!

  1. CHECK THE LOAD: make sure that the connected appliance does not exceed 15 A for Relay 1 and Relay 2 or 20 A for Relay 3.

  2. POWER OFF: turn the circuit power off in the breaker panel before you start. If handling wiring from a box with multiple circuits, turn power off at all of the circuits.

  3. REMOVE THE WALL SWITCH: if the load is currently controlled by a wall switch, carefully remove it from the box and disconnect the wires from the switch.

  4. CONNECT THE MULTIRELAY: follow the instructions in the appropriate diagram for your set-up. If you can’t find your scenario in the diagrams below, please request custom instructions from our support team, we’re happy to help: [email protected].

  5. HOW TO SECURE WIRES IN TERMINALS: first, unscrew the appropriate terminal’s screw just far enough so there is a clear opening in the terminal for the wire to go in. Make sure the wire is stripped at the right length and perfectly straight before you insert it into the terminal. Once you put the wire in the terminal, carefully screw the terminal screw back in to hold down the wire. Check the connection by gently pulling on the connected wire to make sure it’s fixed securely.

  6. POWER THE MULTIRELAY: connect the USB C power source to the MultiRelay or use the “+” “-” terminals on the device to bring low voltage power to it. Never use both at the same time. In both cases you’ll need a standard 1 A power adapter to plug into a standard 120 VAC receptacle. Do NOT use with laptop or tablet chargers, they require a large battery on load to activate.

  3. Once completed, power the device for SmartStart inclusion, it will be added automatically.

  4. Do NOT press the Z-Wave® button. (Except for SmartThings, you may need to click the Z-Wave® button 3 times). See below for QR codes to hub-specific instructions.

Manual Inclusion:

  1. Initiate inclusion (pairing) in the app or hub UI.

  2. Make sure the device is powered and finalize the inclusion at the relay: click the Z-Wave® button 3 times quickly. 

  3. The LED indicator will blink rapidly to signal communication and remain on for 2 seconds if inclusion is successful or turn red for 2 seconds if the pairing attempt fails. If the LED is not blinking rapidly, you did not click the button fast enough.
