3
Group 4
Nodes in this group are turned ON or OFF or set to a specific dim level when the ZTW230 is controlled re-
motely. You can place up to 5 nodes in each group.
If controlling dimmers, for best results, associate the dimmers into the group first.
Configuration
The ZTW230 supports the Configuration command.
The ZTW230 can be configured to operate slightly differently than how it works when you first install it. Using the
configuration command you can adjust other operational characteristics of the ZTW230 as follows:
•
Set Ignore Start Level Bit When Transmitting Dim Command
•
Suspend Group 4
•
Night Light
•
Invert Switch
•
Ignore Start Level When Receiving Dim Commands
• Adjusting Dim Rate
• On/Off Command dim rate (excluding ALL ON/ALL OFF commands)
• Local Control Dim Rate
• ALL ON/ALL OFF Dim Rate
• Disable Group 4 During a Dim Command
• Enable Shade Control Group 1
• Enable Shade Control Group 2
• Enable Shade Control Group 3
• LED Transmission Indication
• Poll Group 1
• Poll Group 1: Minutes
The ZTW230 simulates the operation of a dimmer. Using configuration commands you can adjust the dimming
parameters as though it were a dimmer.
You can use a ZTH200 to send Configuration commands. (Refer to the Setup Menu, Configuration section)
Set Ignore Start Level Bit When Transmitting Dim Commands
• Parameter No: 1
• Length: 1 Byte
• Valid Values = 0 or 1 (default value is 1)
The ZTW230 can send Dim commands to Z-Wave enabled dimmers. The Dim command has a start level
embedded in it. A dimmer receiving this command will start dimming from that start level. However, the
command also has a bit that indicates whether the dimmer should ignore the start level. If the bit is set to 1,
the dimmer will ignore the start level and instead start dimming from its current level. If this bit is set to 0, the
dimmer will not ignore the start level.
Note that many ACT Z-Wave enabled dimmers have the configuration option to ignore the start level no
matter how you configure the ZTW230
Suspend Group 4
• Parameter No: 2
• Length: 1 Byte
• Valid Values = 0 or 1 (default value is 0)
You may wish to disable transmitting commands to Z-Wave devices that are in Group 4 without “disassociating”
those devices from the group. Setting parameter 2 to the value of 1 will stop the ZTW230 from transmitting to
devices that are “associated” into Group 4.
Night Light
• Parameter No: 3
• Length: 1 Byte
• Valid Values = 0 or 1 (default value is 0)
