The controller is a special node in the network but still a node. Therefore buttons allow accessing the device specific data
of the controller and issue a Node Information Frame. A third button gives access to the controller specific data. Most of
these data is only relevant to developers.
The last block shows the availability of the function calls on the serial API between the Z-Wave transceiver and Z-Way.
‘Not implemented’ means that Z-Way is either not knowing about the function indicated by the function ID or does not
make any use of it. A red function call id or name indicated that Z-Way is able to use this function but the transceivers
firmware did not report to offer this service.
Z-Wave Terms
The following Z-Wave terms are used in this manual:
• Static controller is a Z-Wave device with capabilities to manage the network available on a
fixed location in the home
• Secure environment: For sensitive applications like door lock control Z-.Wave offers an enhanced encryption
wrapping defined in the command class Security.
• Controller Replication: Copy the information of one controller to another controller
• SIS: The central database of nodes and ids.
• Primary Controller: If no SIS is present one controller becomes the primary controller only able to include
new devices
• Secondary Controller: If no SIS is present, all other controllers than the primary controller are called
secondary
• Inclusion:
the process of bringing new Z-Wave devices into a network
• Exclusion:
the process of removing Z-Wave devices from the network
• Association
is a control relationship between a controlling device and a controlled device
• Association Group is the list of devices controller by association
• SwitchMultilevel, SwitchBinary and Basic are certain command classes
•
Node Information Frame is a special wireless message issued by a Z-Wave device to announce its
capabilities and functions.
