ZDM230 - ZWave |
{% include base.html %}
This describes the Z-Wave device ZDM230, manufactured by ACT - Advanced Control Technologies with the thing type UID of act_zdm230_00_000.
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.
The ZDM230 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.
Radio Frequency (RF) Controlled, 500W, 230 VAC, European Wall Mounted, 3-Way Dimmer Receiver, Dual Switch, Release 1.1
The following table summarises the channels available for the ZDM230 -:
| Channel | Channel Id | Category | Item Type |
|---|---|---|---|
| Dimmer | switch_dimmer | DimmableLight | 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 supports the Dimmer item and is in the DimmableLight category.
The following table provides a summary of the 3 configuration parameters available in the ZDM230. Detailed information on each parameter can be found in the sections below.
| Param | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Ignore Start-Level (Transmitting) | Dimmers controlled by this switch will start dimming from their current level. |
| 2 | Suspend group 4 | Disable transmitting commands to Z-Wave devices that are in Group 4 without disassociating those devices from the group. |
| 3 | Night Light | n night-light mode the LED on the switch will turn ON when the switch is turned OFF. |
| Switch All Mode | Set the mode for the switch when receiving SWITCH ALL commands |
Dimmers controlled by this switch will start dimming from their current level. Set ignore start level bit when transmitting dim commands. The ZDM230 can send Dim commands to Z-Wave enabled dimmers. The Dim command has a start level embedded in it. A dimmer receiving this command will start dimming from that start level. However, the command also has a bit that indicates whether the dimmer should ignore the start level. If the bit is set to 1, the dimmer will ignore the start level and instead start dimming from its current level. If this bit is set to 0, the dimmer will not ignore the start level. The following option values may be configured -:
| Value | Description |
|---|---|
| 0 | No |
| 1 | Yes |
The manufacturer defined default value is 1 (Yes).
This parameter has the configuration ID config_1_1 and is of type INTEGER.
Disable transmitting commands to Z-Wave devices that are in Group 4 without disassociating those devices from the group. You may wish to disable transmitting commands to Z-Wave devices that are in Group 4 without “disassociating” those devices from the group. Setting parameter 2 to the value of 1 will stop the ZDM230 from transmitting to devices that are “associated” into Group 4. It is possible that you may only want the units in Group 4 to track when the dimmer is being turned ON and OFF and not when dimming. The following option values may be configured -:
| Value | Description |
|---|---|
| 0 | No |
| 1 | Yes |
The manufacturer defined default value is 0 (No).
This parameter has the configuration ID config_2_1 and is of type INTEGER.
n night-light mode the LED on the switch will turn ON when the switch is turned OFF. The LED on the ZDM230 will by default, turn ON when the load attached is turned ON. To make the LED turn ON when the load attached is turned OFF instead, set parameter 3 to a value of 1. The following option values may be configured -:
| Value | Description |
|---|---|
| 0 | No |
| 1 | Yes |
The manufacturer defined default value is 0 (No).
This parameter has the configuration ID config_3_1 and is of type INTEGER.
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 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 ZDM230 supports 4 association groups.

Association group 1 supports 5 nodes.
Right Paddle Right Paddle
Association group 2 supports 5 nodes.
Right double click paddle Right double click paddle
Association group 3 supports 5 nodes.
Group used to inform devices about status updates Group used to inform devices about the updates of status of the ZDM230 dimmer
Association group 4 supports 5 nodes.
