Appendix 1: Terminology Nodes, Controllers and Home Control Groups Nodes are controllers or slaves based on their Role Type. The term Unknown device refers to: 1) Devices that belong to a Home Control Group but are not supported by an Ezlo 100. 2) Devices that do not fit into any of the Home Control Groups managed by the Ezlo 100. 3) Devices that fit into any of the Home Control Groups managed by the Ezlo 100 but we don’t know it’s manufacturer.
Controlled and Supported Command Classes Command Class is a concept which describes how different Z-Wave devices should send commands to exchange (request/report/analyze) device functionality data, for example, commanding devices to turn On/Off, requesting temperature/humidity/voltage values from different sensors etc.
The Ezlo 100 supports and controls only the Lifeline Association group in the Association Command Class with the followingparameters: — Lifeline Group_ID = 1 — Maximum number of devices that can be added to the group = 25 — The Ezlo 100 uses the Lifeline group to send the “Device Reset Locally” frames to the group members. Other than that, the Ezlo 100 does not send any information to Association groups. A Multi-Channel command class is used to set communications between one or more items in a Multi device.
