The device is in the category of *Wall Switch*, defining Any device attached to the wall that controls a binary status of something, for ex. a light switch. ![AN179 product image](https://www.cd-jackson.com/zwave_device_uploads/28/28_default.jpg) The AN179 supports routing. 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 The In-Wall On/Off Module is designed to control the on/off status of lighting and appliances load in your house. Two sets of dry contacts provide more wiring applications. ### Inclusion Information Press the link key three times within 1.5 seconds to put the unit into inclusion mode ### Exclusion Information Press the link key three times within 1.5 seconds to put the unit into inclusion mode ## Channels The following table summarises the channels available for the AN179 -: | Channel | Channel Id | Category | Item Type | |---------|------------|----------|-----------| | Switch | switch_binary | Switch | Switch | | Alarm (power) | alarm_power | Door | Switch | ### Switch Switch the power on and off. The ```switch_binary``` channel supports the ```Switch``` item and is in the ```Switch``` category. ### Alarm (power) Indicates if a power alarm is triggered. The ```alarm_power``` channel supports the ```Switch``` item and is in the ```Door``` category. This is a read only channel so will only be updated following state changes from the device. The following state translation is provided for this channel to the ```Switch``` item type -: | Value | Label | |-------|-----------| | OFF | OK | | ON | Alarm | ## Device Configuration The following table provides a summary of the 4 configuration parameters available in the AN179. Detailed information on each parameter can be found in the sections below. | Param | Name | Description | |-------|-------|-------------| | 1 | Basic Set Command value | Basic Set Command value. 0-99, 255 | | 2 | Report time delay group 1 | Delaying time to report to group 1. | | 3 | Remember last status | Remember last status after power loss. | | 4 | Switching type | Edge or toogle switch mode. | | | Switch All Mode | Set the mode for the switch when receiving SWITCH ALL commands | ### Parameter 1: Basic Set Command value Basic Set Command value. 0-99, 255 Values in the range 0 to 255 may be set. The manufacturer defined default value is ```255```. This parameter has the configuration ID ```config_1_2``` and is of type ```INTEGER```. ### Parameter 2: Report time delay group 1 Delaying time to report to group 1. Values in the range 3 to 25 may be set. The manufacturer defined default value is ```3```. This parameter has the configuration ID ```config_2_1``` and is of type ```INTEGER```. ### Parameter 3: Remember last status Remember last status after power loss. The following option values may be configured -: | Value | Description | |--------|-------------| | 0 | Do not remember | | 1 | Remember | The manufacturer defined default value is ```1``` (Remember). This parameter has the configuration ID ```config_3_1``` and is of type ```INTEGER```. ### Parameter 4: Switching type Edge or toogle switch mode.
