1. Controllers control actuators
2. Actuators report change of status back to controller
3. Sensors report change of status of measured values to controller
4. Sensors directly control actuators
5. Actuators control other actuators
6. Remote controls send signals to static controllers to trigger scenes or other actions
7. Remote controls control other actuators.
There are two different role a controller can have. There is always one single primary controller that is managing the
network and including/excluding devices. The controller may have other functions - like control buttons - as well. All other
controllers don't manage the network itself but can control other devices. They are called secondary controllers. The
image also shows that its not possible to operate a sensor just from a remote control. Sensors only communicate with
static controllers.
Product description
The Z-Wave.Me Wall Controller is a Z-Wave device that can both control other Z-Wave devices and activate
predefined scenes in an IP gateway. Although it is controlling other devices, the Wall Controller cannot act
as Z-Wave network controller (primary or secondary) and will always need a Z-Wave network controller to
be included into a Z-Wave network. The device can be used in different modes that are selected by
configuration parameters:
1. Control of groups of other Z-Wave devices using 'ON', 'OFF' and Dim commands.
2. Control of devices in proximity of the Wall Controller using 'ALL ON' or 'ALL OFF' commands.
3. Activation of predefined scenes in Gateways or other Z-Wave devices.
The device can be used with split paddles as well. Just remove the single paddle and mont the split paddle.
Batteries
The unit is operated by batteries. Use only batteries of correct type. Never mix old and new batteries in the
same device. Used batteries contain hazardous substances and should not be disposed of with household
waste!
Battery Type: 1 * CR2032
Installation Guidelines
The device comes ready to use with a battery already installed. On factory default the device is not included
in any network and any button push will result in a long red blink of the LED, indicating an error. This
behavior can be used to test the factory default or exclusion state.
