HOW IT WORKS

Plug the Z-Stick to your laptop or computer. Install all necessary drivers and your software of choice. Enjoy full control over your new Z-Wave network!

Aeon Labs Z-Stick Gen5 is a self-powered Z-Wave USB adapter. You will be able to add and remove Z-Wave devices within your network directly with the Z-Stick. It makes the inclusion and exclusion process faster and easier.

You may also use the Z-Stick as a secondary controller to your hub, provided that the master firmware supports this type of device and works with Z-Wave Plus and Gen5 technology. Not sure about compatibility? We can help!

Please note that this is a hardware piece only. It does not come with any software, you will have to install home automation software on your computer and mobile device to use it as a Z-Wave gateway.

INSTALLATION

Insert the Z-Stick to your PC/ Mac/ Gateway. You will need home automation software to control and configure your Z-Wave network. You may also need to install drivers before the Z-Stick goes into the Serial-API Mode. The computer will have to be on and awake at all times to keep the network active.

Take the Z-Stick out of the USB port to perform inclusion and exclusion processes (it will not send the commands while plugged in). Keep the Z-Stick plugged in if you'd like to add/remove items from your interface through software settings.

To reset your Z-Stick to factory settings, press and hold the rest button for around 20 seconds. You can complete the process with the Z-Stick plugged to the USB port.
