communication without rerouting attempts as shown as green and a rerouting attempt is
coded in black. The fact that a communication failed (red) may indicate that there is a severe
problem in the network or in the device. It is however also possible that a battery operated
device just went back to sleep too fast. Z-Wave pros can read a lot out of this timing information
particularly when combined with the routing table.
Controller Info
This dialog shows some internal technical data of the controller hardware used. The first box offers
some deep insight into the dynamics of the controller software. It visualizes the job queue of the
system. Every communication attempt of the controller is queues into a job queue and then handed
over to the Z-Wave chip for execution. The list shows the jobs pending and the jobs that are
completed or failed.
A legend informs about the meaning of the different flags n, U, D, E, S and W. The timeout
value counts back from 20 seconds once the job was sent. Even when it was completed the
job will stays in the queue marked as done (D) for some more time to allow inspection. The
target node ID, a description of the communication message, a information about the
process and the real Bytes of the message are shown as well.
