B� Description of association groups:
0 = ROOT DEVICE
Group 1 – "Lifeline" – only 1 node
Lifeline messages
- Device Reset Locally
- Notifications: 
   0x09 ( System ) – Hardware failure with manufacturer proprietary code ( 0x03 )
  0x09 ( System ) – Software failure with manufacturer proprietary code ( 0x04 )
   0x07 ( Home security ) – Motion Begin event ( 0x08 )
   0x07 ( Home security ) – Motion End event ( 0x00, 0x08 )
- Binary Switch Report – lamp state
- Multilevel Sensor Report – value of internal ambient light sensor
Motion Begin and Motion End events are sent along with frames to group 3. 
If multichannel association is created the events are sent from motion sensor 
endpoint.
Switch Report is sent immediately upon a change of status along with frames 
to group 2. If multichannel association is created the events are sent from relay 
endpoint.
Multilevel Sensor Report is sent a maximum of once per 1 minute (if the value 
has changed by least by 3%) and a minimum of once per 15 minutes (if the val-
ue has not changed). If the ambient light value is old (cannot measure because 
of permanent light), the value is not transmitted via lifeline. Multilevel Sensor 
Report can be also added to some other events to send in bulk. If multichannel 
association is created the events are sent from light sensor endpoint.
All notifications to lifeline are sent as sensor states regardless of sensor settings 
and states as SLAVE_MODE, LOCAL_DISABLED and MOTION_ENABLE.
Group 2 – "On/O control" – max 16 nodes
Group 2 is used for directly controlling Z-Wave devices via BASIC SET com-
mands through the evaluation of movement and light as with internal use (so 
that all of these devices work together). This is intended for use especially with 
third-party devices that do not implement reactions for motion events. BA-
SIC_SET and similar Z-Wave commands are not retransmitted intentionally to 
slaves and must be sent to slave devices via the controlling device simultane-
ously. Only for use in master-slave system, multidevice control is not possible. 
Group 2 is evaluated and frames are transmitted there also in SLAVE_MODE, 
regardless of LOCAL_DISABLED state and when MOTION_ENABLE is o (not 
using internal motion sensor just reacts for remote motion events then).
If multichannel association is created the events are send from motion sensor 
endpoint.
Group 3 – "Notification Report" – max 16 nodes
Group 3 sends MOTION_BEGIN and MOTION_END frames.
MOTION_BEGIN frame = Notification 0x07 ( Home security )– Motion detection 
without location ( 0x08 )
MOTION_END frame = Notification 0x07 ( Home security )– After first motion 
detection MOTION_BEGIN is sent. If continual movement is detected 
MOTION_BEGIN is sent every 1minute repeatedly. When motion ends, 
MOTION_END is sent 5 seconds after the last motion detection. 
Notification to group 3 is sent only when NIGHT_MODE = ON and MOTION_
ENABLE = ON, regardless of LOCAL_DISABLE state. 
All devices in a group should have the same TIME settings in order that they 
switch o at the same time. 
If multichannel association is created the events are send from motion sensor 
endpoint.
Group 4 – "Ambient light" – max 16 nodes 
Ambient Light via group 4 is intended to substitute locally measured LUX 
values in target devices – so that the network can have one source of ambi-
ent light value. The frame rate is a value being sent a maximum of once per 
2.5minutes, and a minimum of once per 15 minutes.
When device already uses remote Ambient light value, then this value is also 
retransmitted to group 4.
All devices in such a group should have the same LIGHT ( threshold ) settings 
in order that night mode is detected at the same time.
If multichannel association is created the events are send from light sensor 
endpoint.
1 = MOTION SENSOR 
 The lifeline messages are sent via Root lifeline if not used multichannel 
association.
Group 2 – its mirror of group 2 of root
Group 3 – its mirror of group 3 of root
2 = AMBIENT LIGHT SENSOR
The lifeline messages are sent via Root lifeline if not used multichannel 
association.
Group 2 – its mirror of group 4 of root
3  = RELAY
The lifeline messages are sent via Root lifeline if not used multichannel 
association.
