12. Z-Wave™ Associations
Associations are used for direct communication between the Device and other devices within
your Z-Wave network without the need of the Z-Wave gateway.
Max. number of associated devices per group is 9. This value is fixed and cannot be configured.
Each association group supports the association of up to 9 devices (nodes). To avoid network
delays, we recommend limiting the amount of associated devices to no more than 5 per group.
“Lifeline Group” is reserved solely for a gateway and hence only 1 node can be assigned.
Association group 1 – “Lifeline Group” reports the status of the Device and allows to assign only
one device (gateway by default); only 1 node is allowed. The following command classes are
supported:
12.1 Root device
Root device - Association Group 1 - Lifeline
INDICATOR_REPORT: LED status
DEVICE_RESET_LOCALLY_NOTIFICATION: triggered upon request
SWITCH_BINARY_REPORT: status change report for output O (O1)
NOTIFICATION_REPORT: triggered on Overheat
NOTIFICATION_REPORT: triggered on Overcurrent detected O (O1)
NOTIFICATION_REPORT: triggered on Overvoltage detected
NOTIFICATION_REPORT: triggered on AC mains disconnected
METER_REPORT: triggered by load power consumption connected to output O(O1) (according
to the settings of Parameters No. 36 and 39)
Root device - Association Group 2
Association Group 2
Allowed nodes: 9
It is assigned to switch connected to the SW (SW1) terminal (uses Basic command class).
Triggered by SW (SW1). The device sends according to the state of SW (SW1) (switch or push-
button) the command BASIC_SET ON or BASIC_SET OFF to the associated device. This command
is reflected to the output of associated device. Supports the following command classes:
