3. Advanced Z-Wave Parameters
3.1. association groups
Z-Wave devices can control other devices directly. This direct control is called Z-Wave Association.
The device ID of the device to be controlled must be stored in the controlling devices. This is done in
so-called association groups. An association group is always linked to an event in the controlling device
(keystroke or triggering of a sensor). When this event occurs, a control command - usually a BASIC
SET - is sent to all devices stored in an association group.
The device supports one association group:
group
number Maximum appliances profile command class Group Name
Group 1 5
general
notification report
battery report
Device Reset Locally Notification
Switch Binary Report
Sensor Multilevel Report
lifeline
Group 1 (the Z-Wave Gateway)
When the device is supplied with power for the first time or the sabotage contact is triggered, the
device sends a notification report to the node of group 1.
If the battery level falls below a certain threshold, the device sends a battery report to the node of
group 1.
When a factory reset is performed, the device sends a Reset Locally Notification to the node of
group 1.
If the status of the siren changes (Piezo Alarm On/Off), the device sends a Switch Binary Report to
the node of group 1.
The device sends a multilevel sensor report with temperature and humidity values to the node of
group 1.
