Glossary of Z-Wave Terminology
Device — Any Z-Wave module, controller, or software that represents an item within a Z-Wave
network.
Exclusion — The process of resetting, removing, or deleting a device from a Z-Wave network.
Inclusion — The process of adding a device to a Z-Wave network.
Module — Typically refers to any Intermatic HomeSettings product that is controlled with a
remote controller.
Network — All Z-Wave devices controlled by the remote controllers operating in the same
system. Each network has its own unique identification code to help ensure that no one else can
accidentally control your system.
Primary Controller — The controller used to set up your devices or network. This can be a
tabletop or handheld remote controller or it can be software.
NOTE: In the Intermatic Pool & Spa system, only the Primary Controller can be used to
add or remove devices from a network.
Repeater — A device through which a signal is routed in order to allow that signal to reach the
intended target device.
Replication — The process of sending or receiving network information from one Z-Wave
controller to another.
Scene — Scenes can include one or more devices in your network, allowing each of them to be
turned on or off or set to a different level (i.e., degree of brightness) with the press of a button, or
based on a schedule.
Schedule — A timer-based event in the software that will activate a scene or turn a zone ON/
OFF at a specified time of day, or at sunrise or sunset.
Secondary Controller — A controller containing network information about other devices within
the network, included into the network by the Primary Controller. In the Intermatic Pool & Spa
system, secondary controllers cannot add or remove devices from the network.
