RF9518 - ZWave |
{% include base.html %}
This describes the Z-Wave device RF9518, manufactured by Cooper Wiring Devices with the thing type UID of cooper_rf9518_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 RF9518 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.
The ASPIRE RF 8A switch (RF9518) replaces regular switches or dimmers to provide local and remote ON/OFF control for incandescent loads. Each switch can be manually controlled and remotely controlled by commands sent from an ASPIRE RF controller or other Z-Wave compatible controllers or programs. An ASPIRE RF switch utilizes existing 120V/AC, 60Hz standard house wiring and fits in a standard wallbox. No new wiring is needed.
To include this device in a Z-Wave network, select the command on your Z-Wave controller for inclusion (Install, Add Device, Add Node, Include Device, etc.). Then press the RF switch ON/OFF switch one time to include it in the network. The LED will stop blinking.
To exclude this device from a Z-Wave network, select the command on your Z-Wave controller for exclusion (Uninstall, Remove Device, Remove Node, Exclude Device, etc.). Then press the RF switch ON/OFF switch one time to exclude it from the network. The LED will start blinking.
The following table summarises the channels available for the RF9518 -:
| Channel Name | Channel ID | Channel Type | Category | Item Type |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Switch | switch_binary | switch_binary | Switch | Switch |
| Scene Number | scene_number | scene_number | Number | |
| Alarm | alarm_general | alarm_general | Alarm | 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.
Triggers when a scene button is pressed.
The scene_number channel is of type scene_number and supports the Number item.
Indicates if an alarm is triggered.
The alarm_general channel is of type alarm_general and supports the Switch item and is in the Alarm category. This is a read only channel so will only be updated following state changes from the device.
The following state translation is provided for this channel to the Switch item type -:
| Value | Label |
|---|---|
| OFF | OK |
| ON | Alarm |
The following table provides a summary of the 6 configuration parameters available in the RF9518. Detailed information on each parameter can be found in the sections below.
| Param | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Delayed off | Delayed off |
| 2 | Panic On Time | Panic On Time |
| 2 | Panic On Time | Panic On Time |
| 3 | Panic Off Time | Panic Off Time |
| 5 | Power Up State | Power Up State |
| 6 | Panic Mode Enable | Panic Mode Enable |
| Switch All Mode | Set the mode for the switch when receiving SWITCH ALL commands |
Delayed off
0 to 127 (decimal) represents 0 to 127 seconds of time. -128 to -1 (negative decimal numbers) represents 128 to 255 seconds as calculated by this formula:
config value = desired time in seconds (or dedsired value) – 256 For an example of 172 seconds: config value = 172 – 256 = -84 (decimal) or 0xAC (hex)
Values in the range -128 to 127 may be set.
The manufacturer defined default value is 0.
This parameter has the configuration ID config_1_1 and is of type INTEGER.
Panic On Time
0 to 127 (decimal) represents 0 to 127 seconds of time. -128 to -1 (negative decimal numbers) represents 128 to 255 seconds as calculated by this formula:
config value = desired time in seconds (or desired value) – 256 For an example of 172 seconds: config value = 172 – 256 = -84 (decimal) or 0xAC (hex)
Values in the range -128 to 127 may be set.
The manufacturer defined default value is 0.
This parameter has the configuration ID config_2_1 and is of type INTEGER.
Panic On Time The configuration value is a signed single byte number This value may represent a value such as time.
0 to 127 (decimal) represents 0 to 127 seconds of time.
-128 to -1 (negative decimal numbers) represents 128 to 255 seconds as calculated by this formula:
config value = desired time in seconds – 256
For an example of 172 seconds: config value = 172 – 256 = -84 (decimal) or 0xAC (hex) Values in the range -128 to 127 may be set.
The manufacturer defined default value is 0.
This parameter has the configuration ID config_2_1 and is of type INTEGER.
Panic Off Time
0 to 127 (decimal) represents 0 to 127 seconds of time. -128 to -1 (negative decimal numbers) represents 128 to 255 seconds as calculated by this formula:
config value = desired time in seconds (or desired value) – 256 For an example of 172 seconds: config value = 172 – 256 = -84 (decimal) or 0xAC (hex)
Values in the range -128 to 127 may be set.
The manufacturer defined default value is 0.
This parameter has the configuration ID config_3_1 and is of type INTEGER.
Power Up State
The following option values may be configured -:
| Value | Description |
|---|---|
| 1 | Off |
| 2 | On |
| 3 | Last State |
The manufacturer defined default value is 3 (Last State).
This parameter has the configuration ID config_5_1 and is of type INTEGER.
Panic Mode Enable
The following option values may be configured -:
| Value | Description |
|---|---|
| 0 | Off |
| 1 | On |
The manufacturer defined default value is 0 (OFF).
This parameter has the configuration ID config_6_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 RF9518 supports 1 association group.
Association group 1 supports 5 nodes.
