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. ![WS15Z-1 product image](https://opensmarthouse.org/zwavedatabase/4/image/) The WS15Z-1 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 Scene and NWI capable wall mounted switch ### Inclusion Information 1. With your Controller in Discovery or Add Mode, tap the switch once for Network Wide Inclusion. Tap twice for Standard Inclusion. 2. You should see an indication on your Controller that the “device was added” to the network and the LED will stop blinking. ### Exclusion Information 1. Set the Controller into Removal Mode and follow its instruction to delete the WS15Z-1 from the Controller. 2. Remove the switch by tapping the paddle 2 times. 3. You should see an indication on your Controller that the “device was removed” from the network. ### General Usage Information ## Channels The following table summarises the channels available for the WS15Z-1 -: | Channel Name | Channel ID | Channel Type | Category | Item Type | |--------------|------------|--------------|----------|-----------| | Switch | switch_binary | switch_binary | Switch | Switch | | Dimmer | switch_dimmer | switch_dimmer | DimmableLight | Dimmer | | Scene Number | scene_number | scene_number | | Number | | Battery Level | battery-level | system.battery_level | Battery | Number | ### Switch Switch the power on and off. The ```switch_binary``` channel is of type ```switch_binary``` and supports the ```Switch``` item and is in the ```Switch``` category. ### Dimmer The brightness channel allows to control the brightness of a light. It is also possible to switch the light on and off. The ```switch_dimmer``` channel is of type ```switch_dimmer``` and supports the ```Dimmer``` item and is in the ```DimmableLight``` category. ### Scene Number Triggers when a scene button is pressed. The ```scene_number``` channel is of type ```scene_number``` and supports the ```Number``` item. ### Battery Level Represents the battery level as a percentage (0-100%). Bindings for things supporting battery level in a different format (e.g. 4 levels) should convert to a percentage to provide a consistent battery level reading. The ```system.battery-level``` channel is of type ```system.battery-level``` and supports the ```Number``` item and is in the ```Battery``` category. This channel provides the battery level as a percentage and also reflects the low battery warning state. If the battery state is in low battery warning state, this will read 0%. ## Device Configuration The following table provides a summary of the 2 configuration parameters available in the WS15Z-1. Detailed information on each parameter can be found in the sections below. | Param | Name | Description | |-------|-------|-------------| | 3 | Night Light | By default, the LED will turn OFF when the lead attached is turned ON. | | 4 | Invert Switch | To change the top of the switch to OFF and the bottom of the switch ON. | | | Switch All Mode | Set the mode for the switch when receiving SWITCH ALL commands | ### Parameter 3: Night Light By default, the LED will turn OFF when the lead attached is turned ON. By default, the LED on the WS15Z-1 will turn OFF when the load attached is turned ON. To make the LED turn ON when the load attached is turned ON, set Parameter 3 to a value of 1. The following option values may be configured, in addition to values in the range 0 to 4 -: | Value | Description | |--------|-------------| | 0 | LED OFF when the load is on, and ON when the load is off | | 1 | LED ON when the load is on, and OFF when the load is off | | 2 | LED is always on | | 3 | LED is always off | | 4 | LED blinks during RF transmissions from or to the device | The manufacturer defined default value is ```0``` (LED OFF when the load is on, and ON when the load is off). This parameter has the configuration ID ```config_3_1``` and is of type ```INTEGER```. ### Parameter 4: Invert Switch To change the top of the switch to OFF and the bottom of the switch ON. To change the top of the switch to OFF and the bottom of the switch ON, set Parameter 4 to a value of 1. The following option values may be configured, in addition to values in the range 0 to 1 -: | Value | Description | |--------|-------------| | 0 | Top-ON, Bottom-OFF | | 1 | Bottom-ON, Top-OFF | The manufacturer defined default value is ```0``` (Top-ON, Bottom-OFF ). This parameter has the configuration ID ```config_4_1``` and is of type ```INTEGER```. ### Switch All Mode Set the mode for the switch when receiving SWITCH ALL commands. The following option values may be configured -: | Value | Description | |--------|-------------| | 0 | Exclude from All On and All Off groups | | 1 | Include in All On group | | 2 | Include in All Off group | | 255 | Include in All On and All Off groups | This parameter has the configuration ID ```switchall_mode``` and is of type ```INTEGER```. ## Association Groups Association groups allow the device to send unsolicited reports to the controller, or other devices in the network. Using association groups can allow you to eliminate polling, providing instant feedback of a device state change without unnecessary network traffic. The device does not support associations. ## Technical Information ### Endpoints #### Endpoint 0 | Command Class | Comment | |---------------|---------| | COMMAND_CLASS_NO_OPERATION_V1| | | COMMAND_CLASS_BASIC_V1| | | COMMAND_CLASS_APPLICATION_STATUS_V1| | | COMMAND_CLASS_SWITCH_BINARY_V1| | | COMMAND_CLASS_SWITCH_MULTILEVEL_V1| Linked to BASIC| | COMMAND_CLASS_SWITCH_ALL_V1| | | COMMAND_CLASS_SCENE_ACTIVATION_V1| | | COMMAND_CLASS_CONFIGURATION_V1| | | COMMAND_CLASS_MANUFACTURER_SPECIFIC_V1| | | COMMAND_CLASS_BATTERY_V1| | | COMMAND_CLASS_VERSION_V1| | ### Documentation Links * [User Manual](https://opensmarthouse.org/zwavedatabase/4/reference/WS15Z1-manual.pdf) --- Did you spot an error in the above definition or want to improve the content?
