5. Z-Wave

Interoperability with Z-Wave Devices:

Every Z-Wave certified device is designed to work with all other Z-Wave certified devices. The

Z-Wave network can integrate devices of various classes, and these devices can be made by

different manufacturers. The AX140 is a dedicated controller; since it uses the Basic

Command Class, it can provide limited control of other Z-Wave devices using this command

class.

Wireless range:

This device has an open air line of sight transmission distance of 100 feet which complies with

the Z-Wave standards. Performance can vary depending on the amount of objects between Z-

Wave devices such as walls and furniture. Every installed Z-Wave device will act as a signal

repeater allowing devices to talk to each other and will find alternate routes/paths, in the case

of a reception dead spot.

Radio frequency limitations:

1. Each wall or object (i.e.: refrigerator, bookshelf, large TV, etc) can reduce the maximum

range of 65 feet by up to 25 to 30%.
