Turn your Heavy Duty Smart Switch Gen5 on or off.
Your Heavy Duty Smart Switch can be turned on or off through the use of Z-Wave commands built into Z- Wave certified
controllers and gateways. The specific Z-Wave commands supporting this function are the Basic Command Class and
Binary Switch Command Class. Please consult the operation manual for your Z-Wave network controller for specific
instructions on controlling your Heavy Duty Smart Switch.
Monitoring power consumption.
Your Heavy Duty Smart Switch can report Watts energy usage or kWh energy usage to a Z-Wave gateway or controller. If
this function is supported by the gateway/controller, your energy consumption will be displayed within its user interface. The
specific Z-Wave commands supporting energy monitoring are the Meter Command Class and Multilevel Sensor Command
Class. Automatic reports go to association group 1, which is setup via the Association Command Class. Please consult
your gateway/controller manual for instructions on monitoring energy consumption through your Heavy Duty Smart Switch.
More advanced configurations.
The Smart Switch Gen5 has a longer list of device configurations that you can do with Smart Switch Gen5. These are not
exposed well in most gateways, but at the least you can manually set configurations through most Z-Wave gateways
available. These configuration options may not be available in a few gateways.
