Poll Group 1 : Minutes
•
Parameter 20
•
Length: 1 Byte
•
Valid Values = 1 through 255 (default value is 2)
How often it will poll Group 1 is configured using this parameter 20. The default poll rate is 2.
Note that the poll interval starts timing again upon successful transmission of the poll request. Also note that
the polling interval is not “exact” and that you may see some slight drift occur. Also the poll interval is reset
upon switch being pressed. In addition, on power up, the ZTW230 will randomly poll based upon it’s node ID
within 2 minutes of power being applied.
Poll Group 1
•
Parameter 21
•
Length: 1 Byte
•
Valid Values = 0 , 1 (default value is 0)
•
If the value is 0, the ZTMW230 will not poll group 1
•
If the value is 1, the ZTW230 will poll Group 1 at the interval set in Parameter 20
The ZTW230 will poll the first node in Group 1 in order to keep itself synchronized with the group if this
configuration parameter is set to 1. How often it will poll is configured using parameter 20.
Each Configuration Parameter can be set to its default setting by setting the default bit in the Configuration Set
command. See your controller’s instructions on how to do this (and if it supports it).
All Configuration commands will be reset to their default state when the ZTW230 is reset from the Z-Wave system.
Powerlevel
The ZRW230 supports the Powerlevel command.
The Powerlevel command allows controllers to set and get the RF transmit power level of a node and test specific
links between nodes with specific RF transmit power. Refer to your controller’s instructions, if it supports this
command, for more information. This command is typically used by professional installers.
SUC Support
There must be a
Static Update Controller
in your Z-Wave system for this feature to work. The Static Controller
can act as a gateway in the system, since other nodes always know its position (not moved after addition to the
network). The “always listening” advantage of the Static Controller is that other nodes can transmit information
frames to it whenever needed.
You can assign an “SUC Route” to the ZRW230. Refer to your controller’s instructions on how to do this (if it supports
it). Assigning an SUC Route to the ZRW230 allows it to request an update of the Z-Wave devices that are in between
it and the Z-Wave device it was trying to transmit to. The ZRW230 will only request an update when a transmission
fails.
SPECIFICATIONS
Power:
230 VAC, 50 Hz
Signal (Frequency):
868.42 MHz
Range:
Up to 30 meters line of sight between the Controller and /or the closest HomePro
Receiver Module
INTEROPERABILITY WITH Z-WAVE™ DEVICES
A Z-Wave™ network can integrate devices of various classes, and these devices can be made by different
manufacturers. The ZTW230 can be incorporated into existing Z-Wave™ networks.
The top or bottom of the ZTW230 switch can be pushed to carry out inclusion, association, or exclusion.
