Connecting living connect®
to a Z-Wave controller
In Z-Wave connecting a device is called “Inclusion” or “Learn mode”.
To connect
living connect
® to a Z-Wave controller then:
▪
Ensure
living connect
® is factory reset as explained in the user manual.
▪
Activate "Inclusion" on the Z-Wave controller.
▪
Quickly press and release the select button on
living connect
®.
▪
Observe both controller and
living connect
® for status of the process.
Technical requirements:
▪
After a succesful "Inclusion" the controller must send a WAKE_UP_INTERVAL_SET command to
living connect
® in order to specify where and when
living connect
® should communicate wire-
lessly.
▪
After sending the WAKE_UP_INTERVAL_SET command, the controller must assign return routes,
so
living connect
® can reach its destination i.e. the nodeID set in the WAKE_UP_INTERVAL_SET
command.
▪
living connect
® will not commence its periodic communications if it is in "Installation mode". "In-
stallation mode" is for physical installation and should not be confused with "Inclusion". Please
consult the user manual of
living connect
® for instructions on how to leave "Installation mode".
▪
A Z-Wave controller will have access to all
living connect
® features, which are exposed using
standard Z-Wave command classes.
See other section of this document for more information.
