1 INTRODUCTION

1.1 Purpose

The Z-Wave PC-based Controller application is an example on how Static/Bridge Controller Serial API functionality can be used to implement a Z-Wave-enabled PC application.

1.2 Audience and Prerequisites

The audience is Z-Wave partners and Silicon Labs. It is assumed that the Z-Wave partner is already familiar with the current Z-Wave Developer's Kit.

1.3 Implementation

The Z-Wave PC-based Controller application requires the .NET Framework 4.6.1 or higher. It’s based on the Z-Wave DLL.

Note: See [3] Regarding a detailed description about the Z-Wave DLL.

INS13114-20 Z-Wave PC based Controller v5 User Guide 2020-12-01

silabs.com | Building a more connected world.

2 THE Z-WAVE PC-BASED CONTROLLER

Z-Wave module

The Z-Wave PC-based Controller is an application designed for the Windows platform that is capable of communicating with Z-Wave nodes like switches and sensors through a Static Controller (SC).

Figure 1. PC with a Z-Wave Module Connected

2.1 Check the Prerequisites

The .NET Framework 4.6.1 or later must be installed on the machine to run the Z-Wave PC-based Controller Windows application.

Limitation: Z-Wave PC Controller has been tested on Windows 10.

Important: Ensure that you have the latest service pack and critical updates for the version of Windows

that you are running.

2.2 Required Z-Wave Hardware

Z-Wave PC Controller application requires a Z-Wave module programmed with a Serial API application, including next library types: Static Controller, Bridge Controller, Portable Controller, Slave Enhanced and connected to the appropriate serial or USB port.

To program the Z-Wave module, use the firmware HEX file and additional programming tool:

- For devices with ZW070x chip series use Simplicity Studio and choose needed application from latest available Z-Wave SDK demos.

INS13114-20 Z-Wave PC based Controller v5 User Guide 2020-12-01

silabs.com | Building a more connected world.

Page 3 of 80

- For other devices with chip series older than ZW070x use Z-Wave Programmer tool and file by next name pattern: serialapi_<Lib_Type>_ZW050x_XX.hex (USB version has USBVCP in its name) located in the directory ‘C:\DevKit_X_YY\SDK\ProductPlus\Bin\ SerialAPI_Controller_Static\’;

Finally, connect the Z-Wave module to the COM port on the PC.

UZB is the Z-Wave USB Adapter. It is a USB-based Static Controller.

As the device exports a USB CDC/ACM class-compliant interface, it appears as a serial port, reusing existing standard drivers on the most popular PC operating systems. As such, there is no vendor driver required. Over the serial port, the Z-Wave Serial API is exported.

UZB.INF is provided that reuses the standard Windows usbser.sys or usbser64.sys driver. The device appears in the Device Manager under the Ports section, and is accessible through the Windows CreateFile API by applications as “//.//COMxxx” where xxx is the COM Port number assigned by the OS.

For more information on UZB, see INS11850, Instruction, UZB User Manual.

2.3 Install the Z-Wave PC Controller

Perform the following steps to install the Z-Wave PC Controller:

1. Exit all programs.

2. Run the installation file of the Z-Wave PC Controller application and follow the installation wizard.

3. The actual installation procedure will pass with progress indicator and final confirmation appears.

4. Click Finish to complete the installation.

2.4 Remove Z-Wave PC Controller

4 FUNCTIONALITY

For each SC in the network, a separate instance of the PC-based Controller application must be started.

Note: For correct behavior of the Z/IP Gateway as SIS in network and for support of the Inclusion controller command class, set up unsolicited destination. For more information, see Section 3.2.4.

The SC can be configured to one of the following controller types:

 Primary SC  Secondary SC  Primary SC with SUC and node ID Server functionality (SIS)  Inclusion SC

Primary SC

When configured as primary, the SC can be used to include/exclude nodes in the Z-Wave network. The primary SC will automatically update an SUC if present in the Z-Wave network. Only one primary controller is allowed in the Z-Wave network.

Secondary SC

When configured as secondary, the SC cannot include/exclude nodes in the Z-Wave network. Several secondary controllers are allowed in the Z-Wave network.

Primary SC with SUC and node ID Server functionality (SIS)

The SIS enables other controllers to include/exclude nodes in the network on its behalf. The SIS is the primary controller in the network because it has the latest update of the network topology and capability to include/exclude nodes in the network. When including additional controllers to the network, they become inclusion controllers because they have can include/exclude nodes in the network on behalf of the SIS. The SIS cannot shift its primary role to other controllers in the network.

To read more about SIS functionality, see reference [2].

Inclusion SC

The inclusion SC can include/exclude nodes in the network on behalf of the SIS. The inclusion SC’s network topology is dated from the last time a node was included or it requested a network update from the SIS and therefore it can’t be classified as a primary controller.

INS13114-20 Z-Wave PC based Controller v5 User Guide 2020-12-01

silabs.com | Building a more connected world.

Page 52 of 80

4.1 The SC Properties

Depending on the functionality required in the network, the PC-based Controller (SC and BC) can shift roles to obtain the desired functionality.

Primary

If the SC is the first node in a network, it will automatically be configured to act as a primary controller.

Secondary

If the SC is not the first node in a network, it will automatically be configured to act as a secondary controller.

SIS

It is possible to set the Network Role Option by clicking Set as SIS command.

The table below shows which functionality is available for the PC-based SC depending on the configuration on the controller.

4.2.1 How to Add a Node

PC-based SC is Primary / Inclusion / SIS

To add a node to the Z-Wave network, activate the button ‘Add’ in the 'Network Management' view. When activating this button, the Status popup message will display ‘Press shortly the pushbutton on the node to be included in the network’. Select the node that should be added to the Z-Wave network by activating the node’s button. During the inclusion process, the node must be located at its final position, so that it can obtain the correct neighbors within its range. If the operation was successful, information regarding the node type will be displayed in the node list. The PC-based controller reduces the RF output power during the inclusion process, which can cause range problems because it is static, i.e., located in a fixed position. It is, therefore, recommended that one use a portable controller as primary for adding new nodes to the Z-Wave network.

To include Long Range devices, use Smart Start inclusion only, described in 4.16. For Long Range included devices, the PC Controller uses Long Range Network Keys for Security Schemes Access and Authenticated.

INS13114-20 Z-Wave PC based Controller v5 User Guide 2020-12-01

silabs.com | Building a more connected world.

Page 55 of 80

The Default Inclusion process in Add Node command combines inside protocol inclusion part, auto setup SIS in a network according to Role Type specifications, security bootstrap, and setup default lifeline (route, association and wakeup if supported by joining node). To manage the inclusion process, use: Add Node Custom.

Note: For the correct behavior of Z/IP Gateway as SIS in network and for support of the Inclusion controller command class, set up unsolicited destination. For more information, see Section 3.2.4.

Figure 49. Popup Message After Pressing 'Add' Button

A secure S2 node asks for network keys during inclusion. The PC Controller application shows the following dialog:

Figure 50. Network Keys Request

The secure inclusion flow will be cancelled if the user presses the Cancel button. As a result, the node will be included non-securely.

The Device-Specific Key (DSK) may be required during a secure S2 node inclusion. The PC Controller application shows the next dialog where the user may input text as decimal or hex value using check box or scan it from a QR Code – button “QR Code”:

added in a normal flow. Note that this will take effect even if no test extension is specified deleting all extensions of S2 messages.

Message type allows filtering which extensions will be changed within the S2 message encapsulation frame:

 Type “Singlecast All” means all S2 message encapsulation singlecast frames.  Type “Singlecast with SPAN” means all S2 message encapsulation singlecast frames containing

SPAN extension.

 Type “Singlecast with MPAN” means all S2 message encapsulation singlecast frames containing

MPAN extension.

 Type “Singlecast with MPAN Group” means all S2 message encapsulation singlecast frames

containing MGRP extension.

 Type “Singlecast with MOS” means all S2 message encapsulation singlecast frames containing

MOS extension.

 Type “Multicast All” means all S2 message encapsulation multicast frames.

Extension type allows selecting a specific extension to add to the filtered S2 message encapsulation frame:

 SPAN  MPAN  MGRP (MPAN Group)  Test (value=FF)

Applied Action value enables applying a set test extension to the next message encapsulation and contains next:

 “Add” add predefined extension, even if extension was not added by application.  “Add or Modify” remove extension filtered by extension type if it was added by the application,

add predefined extension.

 “Modify If Exists” replaces extension filtered by extension type with predefined only if it was

added by application.

 “Delete” remove extensions which are matches to filter item if it was added by application.

Extension length is an auto-calculated field.

Extension value allows specifying the extension data.

Click the corresponding checkbox to activate a parameter override and specify a new value. If the parameter override is not active, the PC Controller will use valid specific extension parameter value.

Extension parameters

 “Is Encrypted” option allows overriding the selected extension encryption.  “More to follow” option allows changing “more to follow” parameter of the selected extension

if activated.

 “Is Critical” option allows changing the “Critical” parameter of the selected extension if

activated.

 “Number of usage” option allows limiting a number of filtered S2 message encapsulation

frames. After adding the extension with several usages, the active counter will be “0 of N”. To reset the counter, select the frame and click the button “Set”. Remember to click “OK” or “Apply” to make the new test settings active.

Examples:

1. Filter the message with a SPAN extension by message type <Singlecast with SPAN>:

a. Put override <Add>, extension type, <NEWSPAN> value – Resulting message

with SPAN and <NEWSPAN>.

b. Put override <Add Or Modify>, extension type, <NEWSPAN> value – Resulting

message with <NEWSPAN>.

c. Put override <Modify If Exists>, extension type, <NEWSPAN> value – Resulting

message with <NEWSPAN>, if needed SPAN synchronization.

d. Put override <Delete>, extension type – Resulting message without any

extension, extension added by the application can exist.

2. Filter message with MPAN by message type <Singlecast with MPAN> and that message doesn’t

have SPAN:

a. Put override <Add>, < MPAN > extension type, <NEWMPAN> value – Resulting message

with MPAN and <NEWSPAN>.

b. Put override <Add Or Modify>, <MPAN> extension type, <NEWMPAN> value – Resulting

message with MPAN and <NEWSPAN>.

c. Put override <Modify If Exists>, < MPAN> extension type, <NEWMPAN> value – Resulting

message with NEWMPAN.

d. Put override <Delete>, extension type – Resulting message without any MPAN

extension, extension added by the application can exist.

4.8 ERTT View

The ERTT (Enhanced Reliability Test Tool) is used to test the reliability of an RF link by sending a defined number of frames and performing a simple count on how many frames were not received correctly. A DUT node must be included in the network first. Then select the DUT in the node list of the PC Controller and configure the ERTT.

INS13114-20 Z-Wave PC based Controller v5 User Guide 2020-12-01

silabs.com | Building a more connected world.

Page 66 of 80

The following controls are available:

Test Iterations – enter the required number of iterations.

Run forever – check this box for the test to run until stopped.

Test Mode – select the data format to be used in the test (Basic Set, value 0; Basic Set, value 255; Basic

Set, value 0/255).

Stop on error – check this box for the test to stop on an error.

Low Power – check this box to use low power RF transmission.

TX Control – an optional group of controls which is active only if SerialAPI reports support for (#define

FUNC_ID_SERIAL_API_TEST 0x95):

 TX is Controlled by the module – If ticked, ZW_Test is used instead of SendData, and the

module is informed to send the specified command the defined amount of times. If checked, the following fields must become available:

o TX Delay Field: Define delay between each transmitted frame o Payload length field

Retransmission - if not ticked, send data will be called with TRANSMIT_OPTION_NO_RETRANSMIT = 0x40.

Packets sent: shows the numbers of sent packets.

Packets received: shows the number of reply packets received from the node.

UART Errors: shows the number of UART errors. These errors are logged when the Serial API returns

transmit completion status TRANSMIT_COMPLETE_FAIL (0x06).

The UART error is a count of packages not sent to the other Z-Wave device on air traffic. Z-Wave does listen before talking to avoid interference with an ongoing communication. So, if the Z-Wave protocol "is listening" to Z-Wave air traffic, it will not send the package. Normally the Z-Wave protocol will automatically do a random back off and re-try communication. But the ERTT is a special version and will not do the random back-off. The ERTT will therefore have a higher count of non-transmitted packages.

When calculating the Frame Error Rate (FER), the UART error must be subtracted from the Packets sent to obtain the number of Packets transmitted:

Packets transmitted = Packets sent – UART Errors

FER = (Errors/Packets transmitted) * 100 (%)

Node list grid: displays information about the nodes which ERTT communicates with:

 Node ID

 Device type

 Status – current transmit completion status for the node. 0 stands for

TRANSMIT_COMPLETE_OK.

INS13114-20 Z-Wave PC based Controller v5 User Guide 2020-12-01

silabs.com | Building a more connected world.

Page 67 of 80

 Errors – the total number of errors (all transmit completion statuses different from

TRANSMIT_COMPLETE_OK).

4.9 Polling View

Polling is an infinite process for sending Basic Get command to each node in the list with the interval ‘Poll Time, sec’ after the last polling command was sent and ‘Report Time, sec’ before Ack received and before sending to the next node. To perform Polling the ‘Poll Time, sec’ should be set for the needed nodes and the button ‘Start’ should be pressed to start. To stop the process, press the button ‘Stop’.

‘Requests’ column shows the number of iterations for a specific node.

‘Failure’ shows the number of failed transmits.

‘Missing Report’ shows the number of requests without reports.

‘Max Command Time, ms’ shows the maximum delay in sending the Basic Get command and receiving a callback.

4.10 Topology Map View

The small squares on the sides of the graphic map use the color codes shown in the Node type Colors area.

The larger squares indicate the state of link between two units. Blue squares indicate that the link between two nodes exists, red squares indicate that the link does not exist, and white squares indicate that no link can exist. Note that the table is always symmetrical around the white line.

The “Reload” button loads the Topology map from the Z-Wave module. This is not done during startup because of the time it takes when the Z-Wave module holds a large network setup.

4.11 IMA Network View

Open the 'IMA Network’ view to perform analysis of the network health. Add any listening node to start executing the algorithm.

The selection works as follows:

If no node selected:

1) Nodes range = all nodes except non-listening and controller itself.

2) If nodes range is empty, do nothing.

If one or many nodes selected:

1) Nodes range = selected nodes except non-listening and controller itself.

2) If nodes range is empty, range = all nodes except non-listening and controller itself.

3) If nodes range is empty, do nothing.

INS13114-20 Z-Wave PC based Controller v5 User Guide 2020-12-01

silabs.com | Building a more connected world.

Page 68 of 80

For Non-listening nodes, it is possible to set “Queue overridden” check mark in the node list view, which indicates that the node is a listening node.

4.11.1 Network Health

Starts network health algorithm. This is a time-consuming process and can be aborted. After the process is finished, the Last Working Route for each node will be shown and Network Health Status will be displayed on each node. The iteration information is shown on the right side of the view.

4.11.2 Power Level Test

To perform the test, make sure that the selected nodes, marked as Source (Src) and Destination (Dest), support the power level command class. The test will be started from -9 dB reduction and continue to lower reduction until the report is received with an OK status.

4.12 Security Encrypt/Decrypt

In case of Security (tab S0), enter External Nonce, Internal Nonce, and Security Key. Then, put the encrypted message and click the “Decrypt” button or enter the decrypted message and press the Encrypt button. The outcome will be presented in the corresponding field.

For Security version 2 (tab S2), fill all fields including the network key entered manually. Select the key extract algorithm. Then, enter a message in the corresponding field and click ‘Decrypt’ or ‘Encrypt’.

Example of the S2 encapsulated message decryption using the temp key:

After including node PC Controller displays last used temp key at the Security Settings view:

4.13 Firmware Update

If the device supports the Firmware Update Meta Data command class, it is possible to use this feature to update its firmware over the air.

Current firmware ID and manufacturer ID of the device can be checked. Press the 'Get' button to send Firmware MD Get command to the device.

New firmware file can be uploaded through selecting the file and pressing the 'Update' button.

If the update needs to be delayed, the ‘Activation’ checkbox should be checked before pressing the ‘Update’ button. After the process is finished, the ‘Activate’ button should be pressed to send Firmware Update Activation Set command and start the local update process on the device. This functionality is available only for Firmware Update MD Command Class Version 4.

4.14 NVM Backup/Restore

This functionality saves and uploads the non-volatile memory content of the device.

Buttons with the label ‘…’ are used to create or select a hex-file for the device data.

Press ‘Backup’ to copy the content of device non-volatile memory to a selected file. The file will be auto generated if it does not exist. The backup file can be either saved in the ‘*.zip’ format or ‘*.hex’ format. The compressed ‘*.zip’ file contains additional information from PC Controller, such as Security keys.

‘Restore’ will write data from file to device.

Note: When restoring from backup file, which is ‘*.hex’ format, it will only restore device’s memory. To back up Security keys and other additional information including all non-listening nodes (for example Sensor PIR) Wake Up interval settings, use the ‘*.zip’ format file.

4.15 Configuration Parameters

The Devices Configurations view realizes the Configuration Command Class which allows productspecific configuration parameters to be changed. One example could be the default dimming rate of a light dimmer.

Configuration parameters MUST be specified in the product documentation. Configuration parameters accessed via this command class MUST NOT replace similar commands provided by other existing Command Classes.

A device MUST be able to operate with default factory configuration parameter values.

4.16 Smart Start

The PC Controller provides the Z-Wave Smart Start functionality which ensures that the S2 network keys are not handed out to an attacker. In the ‘Smart Start’ view, it is possible to add a new or view an existing DSK to allow inclusion of devices with Security S2 without the user’s participation.

Smart Start contains a Device-Specific Key (DSK) list – the Provisioning List. Besides the DSK each item in the Provisioning List has ‘Grant Schemes’ and ‘Node Options’ attributes.

- Grant Schemes: Select which security schemes to be granted if requested

- Node Options: Select which node options to be used during smart start inclusion process. Only Long-range or only normal smart start requests will be accepted depending on the ‘Long Range’ node option.

During inclusion with Security S2, the PC Controller selects the required key. In case of successful security inclusion, the used item from the list will be marked with an included Node ID and never used again until the device is reset or removed from the network. Items can be removed from the list, but if the selected DSK corresponds to the added node, the user will be notified that device will stay in the network and needs to be removed manually by the next popup:

Figure 62. Provisioning List Item Delete Popup

The PC Controller reacts on the device reset event, removes the node from nodes list, and drops the link with the current DSK in the provisioning list. Users may choose whether to delete the item from the list or not:

4.20 Settings Trace Capturing

It is possible to enable capturing of communication trace in the settings view. This functionality allows saving sent and received messages of the device to file in the capture folder. The path to the folder can be changed by users, but the name of file will be auto-generated by the app and consists of ZWaveControllerDump, com port name and ‘*.zwlf’ extension, e.g., ZWaveControllerDump_COM1.zwlf.

The Auto split possibility will separate the capture file on parts by size or/and duration. The name of these will be the same as the main file of trace plus date time of saving. Keep the last files controls count of temp files (parts) in a system. All separated parts are saved in the capture folder.

4.20.1 Open Saved Capture Trace File

The saved capture trace file can be converted to a readable format using any external script.
