ASSOCIATION
#7: Association
The Wall Plug provides the association of three groups:
1st Association Group – “Lifeline” reports the device status and al-
lows for assigning single device only (main controller by default).
2nd Association Group – “On/O (Button)” devices in this group
will be switched on or o when relay status is changed using the
B-button (uses Basic command class).
3rd Association Group – “On/O (Power)” devices in this group will
be switched on or o depending on the current load (uses Basic com-
mand class).
NOTE
Association ensures
direct transfer of
control commands
between devices, is
performed without
participation of the
main controller and
requires associated
device to be in the di-
rect range.
i
The Wall Plug in 2nd and 3rd group allows to control
up to 10 regular or multichannel devices per an association group.
“LifeLine” group is reserved solely for the controller and hence only 1
node can be assigned.
It is not recommended to associate more than 10 devices in general,
as the response time to control commands depends on the number
of associated devices. In extreme cases, system response may be de-
layed.
Association (linking devices) - direct control of other devices within
the Z-Wave system network e.g. Dimmer, Relay Switch, Roller Shutter
or scene (may be controlled only through a Z-Wave controller).
NOTE
2nd association group
commands are sent
only in case of manual
operation through the
B-button.
3rd association group
commands are sent
automatically, de-
pending on parame-
ters 21, 22, 23 and 24.
