4. to understand how the circuit you wish to upgrade to Z Wave control is wired Below is a description of a typical 3 way circuit One of the ways to wire a two switch one load circuit is to route the incoming power through the first switch then to the second switch and then to the load Although very common and by no means a standard it is the easiest to convert to Z Wave control With this type of circuit Switch 1 is replaced by the Z Wave auxiliary switch and Switch 2 is replaced with the primary Z Wave switch The auxiliary switch does not actually control the power instead it sends a momentary voltage signal through the traveler wire to the primary switch which in turn controls the power to the load Typical 3 way circuit L White Switch 1 Switch 2 Black Black Black Colored NOT GREEN Wrong Z Wave switch position for typical 3 way circuit Black Line Hot White White Neutral Correct Z Wave switch position for typical 3 way circuit Black Z Wave Primary Other Z Wave Auxiliary White Please consult an electrician if you have trouble identifying the type of wiring circuit you wish to convert or if you do not feel confident in your ability to convert the circuit to Z Wave control INSTALLATION This dimmer switch may be used in new installations or to replace an existing wall switch It may be u
