ZWD Groups



ZWD provides the ability to group drivers so they respond as one


Applications:
  • to insure all lights in a group change at the same time
  • to create a network where any switch in the same group controls all other switches - this is called a Virtual 3-Way Combo

Usage
  • The top section shows all the group assignments - for each group number ( 0-15) the devices in that group are shown
  • The bottom section is the Virtual Three way combo setup

Group Assignments
  • In these groups, click on the arrow to expand, and enter the name you wish Alexa / Google / Siri to use for that group - or hide it
  • you can also turn the group on off or dim from this section

Virtual 3-Way Combos
  • you can edit or manage existing Combos
  • you can create a new Combo

Creating a new V3W Combo
  • How V3W Works
  • Click to create a new combo
  • select the AL-WS-DR2 devices that go into the combo
  • click save.   The addresses of the AL-WS-DR2 will be changed to 0-15, and the devices will be added to a new group
  • wait about 30 seconds for the work to finish
  • you can open the new combo - and add or remove devices as needed
  • if you run out of addresses 0-15 for this feature - you will need to move the address assignment of a device that does not need V3W out of the range of 0-15.   You do that in Admin, change address.
