4. ller Wakeup Intervals how to communicate with the device Ww This device is battery operated and turned into deep sleep state most of the time to save battery life time Communication with the device is limited In order to communicate with the device a static controller C is needed in the network This controller will maintain a mailbox for the battery operated devices and store commands that can not be received during deep sleep state Without such a controller communication may become impossible and or the battery life time is significantly decreased This device will wakeup regularly and announce the wakeup state by sending out a so called Wakeup Notification The controller can then empty the mailbox Therefore the device needs to be configured with the desired wakeup interval and the node ID of the controller If the device was included by a static controller this controller will usually perform all necessary configurations The wakeup interval is a tradeoff between maximal battery life time and the desired responses of the device The device can be woken up manually by pressing the Learn button for 5 seconds It is possible to set the node ID to 255 to send wakeup notifications as broadcast In this mode device takes more time to go to sleep and drains battery faster but can notify all it s direct neighbors about a wakeup Node Information Frame NIF The Node Information Frame is the business card of a Z Wave device It contains inf
