The ZWave Device Manager is the default view of a ZWaveNetwork. Use the ZWave Device Manager to review and access Z-Wave device components (ZWaveDevice and ZWaveThermostat) in the station’s Z-Wave network.
Although this view features online “discovery” of devices, you typically use the “ReplicateReceive” function to initially configure the network, working with the required Z-Wave “primary controller”. Then, depending on whether the JACE will operate as an SUC or SIS (typical), or as a static secondary controller, devices automatically populate the network as they are added one at a time, or all at once.
A number of buttons appear at the bottom of this view. For specific details, see ZWave Device Manager.
Added ZWaveDevices appear in the view’s table. By default, the following columns appear in this view:
-
Name
-
If the ZWaveNetwork’s property “Use Node Names” is false (default), it shows the name of the device-level component that represents the Z-Wave device.
-
If the ZWaveNetwork’s property “Use Node Names” is true, instead of component name you see a text string of “
Node Location_Node Name_NodeId” for each device that supports the the Node Name and Location command class. For example, “1st Floor_MotionFoyer_11”.Any device not supporting this command class shows its “
specificDeviceClass_NodeId”, for example “thermostatGeneralV2_3” instead of component name.
-
-
Type
Component type, currently either “Z Wave Thermostat” or “Z Wave Device”.
-
Exts
Shows an icon for the Points de vice extension of a ZWaveDevice—double-click the icon for the ZWave Points Manager.
-
Node Id
Unique integer Z-Wave node ID (2 - 255) for the device.
-
Specific Device Class
The “Specific Device Class” property of the device’s “Node Info”(NodeInformation) component.
-
Device Profile
Displays the “Device Profile” for the device, if available. About Device Profiles.
-
Node Name
The device’s “Node Name”, from the its “Naming” (ZWaveNames) component (if supported).
-
Node Location
The device’s “Node Location”, from the its “Naming” (ZWaveNames) component (if supported).
-
Health
The device’s current “health” and timestamp of last update.
In addition, using the table options control, the following additional data columns are available:
-
Status
Current status of the ZWaveDevice component.
-
Enabled
Whether the ZWaveDevice component is enabled (true) or disabled (false).
