MATRIX ZBA cannot be used in a classic multi-way switching setup. This is because MATRIX ZBA does not
receive Basic Reports. Hence, it does not receive the information needed to know whether the light is turned on or
off and at what level from other devices than itself. It is, however, possible to use two MATRIX ZBA devices to
control one dimmer, using the method in Example 2.
Example 2: Two MATRIX ZBA devices
controlling one dimmer.
To make the same setup as in Figure 5, use the
pairing functions for both devices #5 and #7 by
setting configuration parameters as such:
•
MATRIX ZBA device #5:
o
Parameter #10 = 2
o
Parameter #16 = 1
•
MATRIX ZBA device #7:
o
Parameter #7 = 2
o
Parameter #13 = 1
With the configuration parameters set to only
dim up / turn on or only dim down / turn off,
there is only one option per activation (key
pressed or key held) per pushbutton. This
makes Basic Reports unnecessary.
It does not matter which pushbuttons are used
for pairing functions
–
for the example only, four
different pushbuttons were used.
Now, associate the Associations groups (5 and
9 for device #5, 3 and 7 for device #7) with the
dimmer device #9.
