ST815 - ZWave |
{% include base.html %}
This describes the Z-Wave device ST815, manufactured by Everspring with the thing type UID of everspring_st815_00_000.
The device is in the category of Sensor, defining Device used to measure something.
The ST815 supports routing. This allows the device to communicate using other routing enabled devices as intermediate routers. This device is unable to participate in the routing of data from other devices.
The ST815 does not permanently listen for messages sent from the controller - it will periodically wake up automatically to check if the controller has messages to send, but will sleep most of the time to conserve battery life. Refer to the Wakeup Information section below for further information.
The Illumination Sensor is designed to monitor the current illumination of ambient environment. The reading of illumination can be reported to you on a regular base at your disposal. If illumination reaches set points, the sensor will send alerts to associated devices for further execution (such as trigger on connected lightings). The Illumination Sensor is suitable for use in darkness and outdoor.
Pressing ESC key 3 times within 1.5 seconds will enter inclusion mode.
Pressing ESC key 3 times within 1.5 seconds will enter exclusion mode.
The ST815 does not permanently listen for messages sent from the controller - it will periodically wake up automatically to check if the controller has messages to send, but will sleep most of the time to conserve battery life. The wakeup period can be configured in the user interface - it is advisable not to make this too short as it will impact battery life - a reasonable compromise is 1 hour.
The wakeup period does not impact the devices ability to report events or sensor data. The device can be manually woken with a button press on the device as described below - note that triggering a device to send an event is not the same as a wakeup notification, and this will not allow the controller to communicate with the device.
Not Provided
The following table summarises the channels available for the ST815 -:
| Channel Name | Channel ID | Channel Type | Category | Item Type |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sensor (luminance) | sensor_luminance | sensor_luminance | Number | |
| Battery Level | battery-level | system.battery_level | Battery | Number |
Indicates the current light reading.
The sensor_luminance channel is of type sensor_luminance and supports the Number item. This is a read only channel so will only be updated following state changes from the device.
Represents the battery level as a percentage (0-100%). Bindings for things supporting battery level in a different format (e.g. 4 levels) should convert to a percentage to provide a consistent battery level reading.
The system.battery-level channel is of type system.battery-level and supports the Number item and is in the Battery category.
This channel provides the battery level as a percentage and also reflects the low battery warning state. If the battery state is in low battery warning state, this will read 0%.
The following table provides a summary of the 6 configuration parameters available in the ST815. Detailed information on each parameter can be found in the sections below.
| Param | Name | Description |

| 3 | Lux Trigger Off Value | Lux Trigger Off Value |
| 4 | Lux Trigger Off Timer Value. | Lux Trigger Off Timer Value. |
| 5 | Auto Report Time Interval | Auto Report Time Interval |
| 6 | Auto Report Lux Interval | Auto Report Lux Interval |
| Wakeup Interval | Sets the interval at which the device will accept commands from the controller | |
| Wakeup Node | Sets the node ID of the device to receive the wakeup notifications |
Basic Set Level Set basic set value to be on or off.
Set to 0 to disable Values in the range 0 to 99 may be set.
The manufacturer defined default value is 99.
This parameter has the configuration ID config_1_1 and is of type INTEGER.
Lux Trigger On Value Lux level when ON command is sent out.
Set to 0 to disable.
Valid values - 30-1000 or 0
Default 30 Values in the range 0 to 1000 may be set.
The manufacturer defined default value is 300.
This parameter has the configuration ID config_2_2 and is of type INTEGER.
Lux Trigger Off Value Lux level when Off command is sent out.
Values 30-1000 or 0
Default 500
Set to 0 to disable. Values in the range 0 to 1000 may be set.
The manufacturer defined default value is 500.
This parameter has the configuration ID config_3_2 and is of type INTEGER.
Lux Trigger Off Timer Value. Timer value in minutes.
Values : 1-480 or 0
Default 240
Set to 0 to disable. Values in the range 0 to 480 may be set.
The manufacturer defined default value is 0.
This parameter has the configuration ID config_4_2 and is of type INTEGER.
Auto Report Time Interval Time interval in minutes to auto report to association group 1
Valid values 1-1439 minutes or 0
Set to 0 to Disable Values in the range 0 to 1439 may be set.
The manufacturer defined default value is 0.
This parameter has the configuration ID config_5_2 and is of type INTEGER.
Auto Report Lux Interval Lux interval step size to auto report to association group 1
Valid Values 30-1000 (Lux)
Set to 0 to Disable Values in the range 0 to 1000 may be set.
The manufacturer defined default value is 0.
This parameter has the configuration ID config_6_2 and is of type INTEGER.
The wakeup interval sets the period at which the device will listen for messages from the controller. This is required for battery devices that sleep most of the time in order to conserve battery life. The device will wake up at this interval and send a message to the controller to tell it that it can accept messages - after a few seconds, it will go back to sleep if there is no further communications.
This setting is defined in seconds. It is advisable not to set this interval too short or it could impact battery life. A period of 1 hour (3600 seconds) is suitable in most instances.
Note that this setting does not affect the devices ability to send sensor data, or notification events.
This parameter has the configuration ID wakeup_interval and is of type INTEGER.
When sleeping devices wake up, they send a notification to a listening device. Normally, this device is the network controller, and normally the controller will set this automatically to its own address. In the event that the network contains multiple controllers, it may be necessary to configure this to a node that is not the main controller. This is an advanced setting and should not be changed without a full understanding of the impact.
This parameter has the configuration ID wakeup_node 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 ST815 supports 2 association groups.
Association group 1 supports 1 node.
Association group 2 supports 3 nodes.
