What is Z-Wave?
Z-Wave is the international wireless protocol for communication in the Smart Home. This device is suited for use in the region mentioned in the Quickstart
section.
Z-Wave ensures a reliable communication by reconfirming every message ( two-way communication)
and every mains powered node can act as a repeater for other nodes (meshed network) in case the
receiver is not in direct wireless range of the transmitter.
This device and every other certified Z-Wave device can be used together with any other certified Z-
Wave device regardless of brand and origin as long as both are suited for the same frequency
range.
If a device supports secure communication it will communicate with other devices secure as long as
this device provides the same or a higher level of security. Otherwise it will automatically turn into a
lower level of security to maintain backward compatibility.

the assembly of the product, the voltage network has to be switched off and ensured against re-switching.

Inclusion/Exclusion
On factory default the device does not belong to any Z-Wave network. The device needs to be added to an existing wireless network to communicate
with the devices of this network. This process is called Inclusion.
Devices can also be removed from a network. This process is called Exclusion. Both processes are initiated by the primary controller of the Z-Wave
network. This controller is turned into exclusion respective inclusion mode. Inclusion and Exclusion is then performed doing a special manual action right
on the device.
