Overview

Innoband's Z-Wave Sense Commander gateway connects to an Ethernet router to allow
users to control a Z-Wave based sensor network.

The sensor network may include Z-Wave security devices such as door/window sensors,
motion detectors, sirens, and door locks. The network may also includes home automation
and energy monitoring devices such as appliance on/off switches, light socket on/off
adapters, light dimmers, thermostats, and irrigation controller.

This Sense Commander is designed to control the Z-Wave devices when it's properly
connected to an Ethernet network. This Ethernet network can be a LAN (local area network)
or WAN (wide area network). Users can then access the WSN Controller through LAN or
WAN using web browsers on PCs, Mac's, tablets, or mobile devices such as smart phones.

About Z-WaveTM

Z-WaveTM is a wireless communications protocol designed to remotely control applications in
residential and commercial environments.

Each Z-WaveTM network is identified by a Network ID, and each device is further identified
by a Node ID. A device must be "included" to the Z-WaveTM network before it can be
controlled via Z-WaveTM.

This ‘Inclusion” process (also known as "pairing" and "adding") is achieved by pressing a
sequence of buttons on the controller and the device being added to the network. This
sequence only needs to be performed once, after which the device is always recognized by
the controller. Devices can be removed from the Z-WaveTM network by a similar “Exclusion”
process of button strokes.

Summary:

Function Description

Inclusion Add a Z-Wave device (e.g. Dimmer) to Z-Wave network
Exclusion Remove a Z-Wave device (e.g. Dimmer) from Z-Wave network
Reset Restore Sense Commander to factory default
