What is a scene controller?

What are Z-Wave scenes?

Groups – a collection of individual devices controlled as a group. For instance they can all be turned On/Off by one button or action. Scenes – enable a single button to send different commands to different devices.

How do I use Z-Wave association?

An association is basically pairing two Z-Wave devices together so that they can work without any intervention from a Z-Wave Hub. For example if you wanted a Motion detector to turn on a light switch you would associate the two together. Now every time someone walks by the motion sensor the light will come one.

Can AZ wave device be controlled by more than one controller?

Z-Wave allows multiple controllers on the same network. There’s only one primary and can be multiple secondary controllers. Any controller, be it primary or secondary, communicates with devices directly. There’s a confusion between “controllers” and “remote controls” also known as “button controllers” in SmartThings.
