Multilevel Sensor

Shows the ability to advertise numerical sensor readings, such as temperature, and humidity. Multiple parameters can be set for the minimum and maximum values, and a basic set will be send if the measured temperature value is out of the range.

Lifeline

5

Supports the following command classes:

Device Reset Locally: triggered upon reset.
Basic Set On/Off: triggered upon a movement detection (simulated by button BTN2).
Indicator Report: Triggered when LED1 changes state.
Configuring parameters: Minimum and maximum temperature levels can be set, errors can be detected if measured temperature is out of range
Environmental measurements: Temperature and humidity values can be read, triggered from other Z-Wave devices
