Here is a full list of advanced settings (parameters) for the ZEN15 Power Switch VER. 1.06 firmware (hardware 2.0):

LED Indicator Control

Parameter 27: Choose how the LED indicator displays power consumption on the Power Switch and when it’s on or off.

Values: 0 – LED indicator will display power consumption whenever the device is plugged in (LED stays on at all times, even if the switch is off); 1 – LED indicator will display power consumption whenever the device is ON in and will turn off when the switch is OFF (default); 2 – LED indicator will display the level of power consumption for 5 seconds only whenever the device is turned on or off (LED indicator will stay off for most of the time); 3 – LED indicator is OFF at all times except for inclusion, exclusion, and Z-Wave range test)

Overload Protection

Parameter 20:

500 seriesOverload protection will turn the ZEN15’s relay off once voltage exceeds 16.5A when this setting is enabled. We DO NOT recommend changing this parameter’s value as it may result in device damage and malfunction. 

Values: 0 – Disabled; 1 – Enabled (default).

Size: 1 byte dec

800 series FW 2.10 and upThis parameter was updated so that the ZEN15 will continue detecting the load power for the specified time below, and will shut off if the current exceeds 16.5A for more than the time specified in the value selected below

Values: 2 - 2 sec delay; 3 - 3 sec delay; 4 - 4 sec delay; 5 - 5 sec delay. Default: 2

Size: 1 byte dec

Overload Protection Turn On Delay - 800 series only

Parameter 36: Disable or set the delay for the automatic turn on after the unit has been turned off after the overload protection was triggered. 

Values: 0 – Disabled (Default); 10 – 65535 (seconds).

Size: 1 byte dec

 

Auto-on Timer

Parameter 33: Use this parameter to set the time after which you want the Power Switch to automatically turn on once it has been turned off. The number entered as value corresponds to the number of minutes.

Values: 0 – timer disabled (default); 1-99 (minutes).

Size: 1 byte dec

 

Auto-off Timer

Parameter 34: Use this parameter to set the time after which you want the Power Switch to automatically turn off once it has been turned on. The number entered as value corresponds to the number of minutes.

Values: 0 – timer disabled (default); 1-99 (minutes).

Size: 1 byte dec

 

Power Wattage Report Value Threshold

Parameter 151: Choose how you want your Power Switch to report power consumption to your hub. The number entered as value corresponds to the number of Watts the appliance needs to go over for the change to be reported. So if 50 Watts are entered by default, the Power Switch will report any change in power usage over 50 Watts (whether it’s at least 50 Watts more or 50 Watts less compared to the previous report).

Values: 0 – 65535. 0 – disabled (the Switch will not report power consumption based on this setting). Default: 50.

Size: 2 byte dec

 

Power Report Percentage Threshold

Parameter 152: Choose how you want your Power Switch to report power use to your hub and associated devices by percentage rate. The number entered as value corresponds to the percentage in power usage change the appliance needs to go over for the event to be reported. So if 10% is entered by default, the Power Switch will report any change in power use over 10% (whether it’s at
least 10% more or 10% less power use compared to the previous report).

Values: 0 – 99; 0 – disabled (it will not report power consumption based on percentage change). Default: 10.

Size: 1 byte dec

 

Voltage Report Threshold - 800 series only

Parameter 175: Choose the threshold the voltage needs to exceed from the last reported value for a new report to be sent to the hub.

Values: 0 – 255; 0 – disabled. Default: 10.

Size: 1 byte dec

 

Electrical Current Report Threshold - 800 Series Only
