d. To query the STATUS of a thermostat:
i. In HyperTerminal type: >NxSE64,2 where “x” is the Node ID of the thermostat
being controlled.
1. Feedback in HyperTerminal should be <E000 followed on the next line
by <X000 and then <E000 on the third line. The fourth line should be
Nxxx:064,003,yyy where “xxx” is the Node ID of the thermostat (single
and double digit Node IDs will have leading zeros) and “yyy” is the status
of the thermostat.
a. 000 = OFF
b. 001 = HEAT
c. 002 = COOL
If you receive feedback where E000 (as noted above) is something different it indicates that the
command was not entered correctly.
If you receive feedback where X000 (as noted above) is something different it indicates that the VRC0P is
not communicating correctly with the thermostat.
Correct any problems prior to integrating with the g! system. Contact the manufacturer(s) of the
product(s) you are installing for additional help with troubleshooting your Z-Wave network.
COMMON MISTAKES
1. Improper Z-Wave setup. Ensure that you fully program and test your Z-Wave network for proper
operation prior to integration with g!
2. Placing the Z-Wave RS-232 Adapter out of range of other Z-Wave devices. Z-Wave devices create a
wireless, self-healing mesh network, and should be placed where they are in range to communicate
with multiple other devices for best results.
3. Adding thermostats / repeaters to the network after adding controllers. If thermostats / repeaters are
added after controllers the controllers must be updated.
4. Using a VRC0P-1LW that does not have the (+3) notation.
5. Failing to update the VRC0P-1LW firmware. Minimum Version:
$Leviton(C) 2008 V2.33S/Z-Wave
3.11
6. Failing to Disable thermostat schedule when using g! schedule.
7. Enabling / Disabling Fan Circulate (Cycle) or Emergency Heat (Heat Pumps Only) on the thermostats
but setting incorrectly in Configurator and vice versa.
