This allows the device to communicate using other routing enabled devices as intermediate routers. This device is also able to participate in the routing of data between other devices in the mesh network. ## Overview **ZRW230 WALL MOUNTED SWITCH** The ZRW230 Wall Mounted 3-Way Switch is a component of the HomePro lighting control system. This Wall Mounted Switch is designed to work with other Z-Wave enabled devices. Z-Wave nodes of other types can be added to the system and will also act as repeaters if they support this function of repeating the signal received to other modules in the system.  As part of a Z-Wave network, the ZRW230 will also act as a wireless repeater to insure that commands intended for another device in the network are received. This is useful when the device would otherwise be out of the radio range of the wireless controller. There are no field repairable assemblies on this unit.. If service is needed, the unit must be returned where purchased. ### Inclusion Information **Including to the Network (Must be installed in its permanent location, not on test bench)** 1.

Detailed information on each parameter can be found in the sections below. | Param | Name | Description | |-------|-------|-------------| | 1 | Set Ignore Start Level Bit | Set Ignore Start Level Bit When Transmitting Dim Commands | | 2 | Suspend Group 4 | Stop transmitting to devices that are “associated” into Group 4 | | 3 | Night Light | LED behaviour of the ZRW230 switch | | 4 | Invert Switch | Switch (paddle) behaviour. | | 14 | Enable Shade Control Group 2 | The ZRW230 can operate shade control devices via its group 2 | | 15 | Enable Shade Control Group 3 | The ZRW230 can operate shade control devices via its group 3 | | 19 | LED Transmission Indication | LED Transmission Indication | | | Switch All Mode | Set the mode for the switch when receiving SWITCH ALL commands | ### Parameter 1: Set Ignore Start Level Bit Set Ignore Start Level Bit When Transmitting Dim Commands The ZRW230 can send Dim commands to Z-Wave enabled dimmers. The Dim command has a start level embedded in it. A dimmer receiving this command will start dimming from that start level. However, the command also has a bit that indicates whether the dimmer should ignore the start level. If the bit is set to 1, the dimmer will ignore the start level and instead start dimming from its current level. If this bit is set to 0, the dimmer will not ignore the start level. The following option values may be configured -: | Value | Description | |--------|-------------| | 0 | Dimmer will not ignore the start level | | 1 | Dimmer will ignore the start level | The manufacturer defined default value is ```1``` (Dimmer will ignore the start level). This parameter has the configuration ID ```config_1_1``` and is of type ```INTEGER```. ### Parameter 2: Suspend Group 4 Stop transmitting to devices that are “associated” into Group 4 You may wish to disable transmitting commands to Z-Wave devices that are in Group 4 without “disassociating” those devices from the group. Setting parameter 2 to the value of 1 will stop the ZRW230 from transmitting to devices that are “associated” into Group 4. The following option values may be configured -: | Value | Description | |--------|-------------| | 0 | Enable transmitting to devices “associated” into Group 4 | | 1 | Stop transmitting to devices “associated” into Group 4 | The manufacturer defined default value is ```0``` (Enable transmitting to devices “associated” into Group 4). This parameter has the configuration ID ```config_2_1``` and is of type ```INTEGER```. ### Parameter 3: Night Light LED behaviour of the ZRW230 switch The LED on the ZRW230 will by default, turn ON when the load attached is turned ON. To make the LED turn ON when the load attached is turned OFF instead, set parameter 3 to a value of 1. The following option values may be configured -: | Value | Description | |--------|-------------| | 0 | Turn LED ON when the load is turned ON | | 1 | Turn LED ON when the load is turned OFF | The manufacturer defined default value is ```0``` (Turn LED ON when the load is turned ON). This parameter has the configuration ID ```config_3_1``` and is of type ```INTEGER```. ### Parameter 4: Invert Switch Switch (paddle) behaviour. To change the top of the switch to OFF and the bottom of the switch ON , set parameter 4 to 1. The following option values may be configured -: | Value | Description | |--------|-------------| | 0 | Top of switch is ON, bottom is OFF | | 1 | Top of switch is OFF, bottom is ON | The manufacturer defined default value is ```0``` (Top of switch is ON, bottom is OFF). This parameter has the configuration ID ```config_4_1``` and is of type ```INTEGER```. ### Parameter 14: Enable Shade Control Group 2 The ZRW230 can operate shade control devices via its group 2 The ZRW230 can operate shade control devices via its group 2 if this configuration parameter is set to 1. The following option values may be configured -: | Value | Description | |--------|-------------| | 0 | Disable operation of shade control devices via group 2 | | 1 | Enable operation of shade control devices via group 2 | The manufacturer defined default value is ```0``` (Disable operation of shade control devices via group 2). This parameter has the configuration ID ```config_14_1``` and is of type ```INTEGER```. ### Parameter 15: Enable Shade Control Group 3 The ZRW230 can operate shade control devices via its group 3 The ZRW230 can operate shade control devices via its group 3 if this configuration parameter is set to 1.

Using association groups can allow you to eliminate polling, providing instant feedback of a device state change without unnecessary network traffic. The ZRW230 supports 4 association groups. ### Group 1: Tapping paddle once Group 1 Control: If you associate a Z-Wave device into Group 1, you can turn that device ON and OFF by tapping the top or bottom of the switch _once_. The load attached to the ZRW230 will also turn on or off. Associating nodes into group 2 or 3 will cause a very slight delay before the command is transmitted to group 1 nodes. You can brighten the controlled device by pushing and holding the top of the switch, dim by pushing and holding Association group 1 supports 5 nodes. ### Group 2: Tapping paddle twice Group 2 Control: If you associate a Z-Wave device into Group 2, you can turn that device ON and OFF by tapping the top or bottom of the switch _twice_. You can brighten or dim devices by tapping the switch once then push and hold the top or bottom. The load attached to the ZRW230 is not affected. Association group 2 supports 5 nodes. ### Group 3: Tapping paddle three times Group 3 Control: If you associate a Z-Wave device into Group 3, you can turn that device ON or OFF by tapping the top or bottom of the switch _three times_. You can brighten or dim devices by tapping the switch twice then push and hold the top or bottom. The load attached to the ZRW230 is not affected. Association group 3 supports 5 nodes. ### Group 4: By command to the ZRW230 Group 4 Control: If you associate a Z-Wave device into Group 4, that device will be commanded to turn on or off when the ZRW230 is commanded to turn on or off. Caution: The ZRW230 will not transmit to Z-Wave devices in Group 4 if it is already in the state that the Z-Wave command commanded it to. Association group 4 supports 5 nodes. ## Technical Information ### Endpoints #### Endpoint 0 | Command Class | Comment | |---------------|---------| | COMMAND_CLASS_NO_OPERATION_V1| | | COMMAND_CLASS_BASIC_V1| | | COMMAND_CLASS_SWITCH_BINARY_V1| Linked to BASIC| | COMMAND_CLASS_SWITCH_ALL_V1| | | COMMAND_CLASS_CONFIGURATION_V1| | | COMMAND_CLASS_MANUFACTURER_SPECIFIC_V1| | | COMMAND_CLASS_POWERLEVEL_V1| | | COMMAND_CLASS_ASSOCIATION_V1| | | COMMAND_CLASS_VERSION_V1| | ### Documentation Links * [ZRW230 Manual](https://www.cd-jackson.com/zwave_device_uploads/546/ZRW230-instr.pdf) --- Did you spot an error in the above definition or want to improve the content?
