6. Make sure to have enough mains powered device to benefit from the meshing
Association - one device controls an other device
Z-Wave devices control other Z-Wave devices. The relationship between one device controlling another device is called association. In order to control a different
device, the controlling device needs to maintain a list of devices that will receive controlling commands. These lists are called association groups and they are always
related to certain events (e.g. button pressed, sensor triggers, ...). In case the event happens all devices stored in the respective association group will receive the
same wireless command wireless command, typically a 'Basic Set' Command.
Association Groups:
Group Number Maximum Nodes Description
1 1 Z-Wave Plus Lifeline
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: Watt Meter Report Period
If the setting is configured for 1hour (set value =720), the PAN16 will report its instant power consumption every 1 hour to Group1 node. The maximum interval to
report its instant power consumption is 45 hours (5s*32767/3600=45hr).
Size: 2 Byte, Default Value: 720
Setting Description
1 - 32767 720*5s=3600s=1 hour
Parameter 2: KWH Meter Report Period
If the setting is configured for 1hour (set value =6), the PAN16 will report its Accumulated Power Consumption (KW/h) every 1 hour to Group1 node. The maximum
interval to report its Accumulated Power Consumption (KW/h) is 227.55 days (10min*32767/1440=227.55 days).
Size: 2 Byte, Default Value: 6
Setting Description
1 - 32767 6*10min=1 hour
Parameter 3: Threshold of current for Load Caution
This is a warning when the current of load over the preset threshold value, if the setting value is 1300, when the load current of Relay1 over this value, PAN16 will send
current meter report to warn the Group1 node, the Range of the setting value is from 10 to 1300,and the default value is 1300.
Size: 2 Byte, Default Value: 1300
Setting Description
10 - 1300 1300*0.01A = 13A
Parameter 4: Threshold of KWh for Load Caution
This is a warning when the KWh of load over the preset threshold value, If the setting value is 10000, when the Accumulated Power Consumption of Relay1 over this
value, PAN16 will send KWH meter report to warn the Group1 node, minimum value is 1KWh and default value is 10000 kWh.
Size: 2 Byte, Default Value: 10000
Setting Description
1 - 10000 10000*1KWH=10000KWH
Parameter 5: Restore switch state mode
Whenever the AC power return from lost, PAN16 will restore the switch state which could be SWITCH OFF (LAST SWITCH STATE) SWITCH ON. The default setting
is LAST SWITCH STATE.
Size: 1 Byte, Default Value: 1
Setting Description
0 Switch off
1 Last switch state
2 Switch on
