Instructions

There are four more command classes that may need additional configuration work and that are displayed if the certain

device supports it. The actual data of the different sections are shown in the UI and can be updated using the button

“Update from device” A time indication shows when the time where the values where received from the device (Beware,

that an update may be delayed if the device if battery operated an in deep sleep state)

• Wakeup: Define the wakeup interval and the node is of the main controller taking care of the wakeup sequence.

The controller will set a standard wakeup time of 1800 seconds unless the devices sets a different minimal or

maximal wakeup time. In most cases the node id of the controller is the correct setting for the target node id and

should not be changed. In case this controller is only secondary controller this value may change. A tool tip on the

input field shows the allowed minimum and maximum wakeup time as reported by the device.

• Protection: In case the device supports local protection – means suppressing local use of the device – the

behavior of this function can be defined. The protection command class actually offers more options than

displayed here, Refer to the ‘Expert Commands’ tab for a complete set of controls.

• Switch All configuration: Z-Wave supports the so called switch all function as a broadcast to all switches and

dimmers. This setup defines the reaction of the device to such a “Switch All” command. The setting is also

displayed in the “Switches“ section as little gray/green icon.

• Configuration: In case the controller can identify the device and finds information about further configuration

options these options are shown. The little (i) symbol may give more descriptive information about the

configuration value. If no device description of the device is found no configuration options are shown. In case the

device does have configuration options it’s possible to set them using the expert command section.

Note: For mains powered devices and FLIRS device the button “Apply configuration to device” will activate the changes

within few seconds. For battery operated devices the commands are stored to the next wakeup. It’s possible and

recommended to wake up the device manually to speed up the change of configuration values.

Association

Associations allow switching a Z-Wave device B (target) as a result of an event in Z-Wave device A (source). Z-Wave

devices offer lists of devices to switches for each event supported. The list of these events – also called association groups –

and the devices that are associated with it are shown in the Association tab. In case the information is provided either by

the device or by the device record stored in the software the meaning of the events is written. Otherwise only event group

is shown unnamed. In this case refer to the devices manual for more information about the association group meaning.

The stored devices can be called from the actual device using a button. The buttons ’+/-’ used to add and remove device

from the group. A dialog is opened and a device can be picked. In case this device has multiple instances an instance drop

down list will appear allowing to choose the right instance of the target device. The node ID and – if applicable – the

instance id are shown in the target device list. Move the mouse over the ID to show the complete given name of this

device.
