Special Operations as Z-Wave Controller
As long as this device is not included into a Z-Wave network of a different controller it is able to manage its own Z-Wave network as primary controller. As a
primary controller the device can include and exclude other devices in its own network, manage associations, and reorganize the network in case of problems. The
following controller functions are supported:
Inclusion of other devices
Communication between two Z-Wave devices only works if both belong to the same wireless network. Joining a network is called inclusion and is initiated by a
controller. The controller needs to be turned into the inclusion mode. Once in this inclusion mode the other device needs to confirm the inclusion - typically by
pressing a button.
If current primary controller in your network is in special SIS mode this and any other secondary controller can also include and exclude devices.
To become primary a contoller have to be resetted and then include a device.
Turn into Management Mode, hit button 1 and confirm with * (Star Key)
Exclusion of other devices
The primary controller can exclude devices from the Z-Wave network. During exclusion the relationship between the device and the network of this controller is
terminated. No communication between the device and other devices still in the network can happen after a successful exclusion. The controller needs to be
turned into the exclusion mode. Once in this exclusion mode the other device needs to confirm the exclusion - typically by pressing a button.
Attention:
Removing a device from the network means that it is turned back into factory default status. This process can also exclude devices from it's previous
network.
Turn into Management Mode, hit button 2 and confirm with * (Star Key)
Shift of Primary Controller Role
The device can hand over its primary role to another controller and become secondary controller.
Turn into Management Mode, hit button 3 and confirm with * (Star Key)
Configuration Parameters
Z-Wave products are supposed to work out of the box after inclusion, however certain configuration can adapt the function better to user needs or unlock further
enhanced features.
IMPORTANT:
Controllers may only allow configuring signed values. In order to set values in the range 128...255 the value sent in the application shall be the
desired value minus 256. For example: To set a parameter to 200 it may be needed to set a value of 200 minus 256 = minus 56. In case of a two byte value the
same logic applies: Values greater than 32768 may needed to be given as negative values too.
Parameter 1: Door Lock Automatic Secure Timeout
After this time a CLOSE command is sent to the controlled door lock. On default no CLOSE command is sent assuming that the strike lock has its own timeout set
