Switch Parameter Descriptions

Below we'll list out the parameter number, description, range, default value, size, firmware version it was implemented and an example of how to use it.


Dimming Speed & Minimum Dim Level Parameters

Dimming speed refers to how fast or slow the light turns on when you change the dim level either remotely or locally (at the switch) such as from 10-20%, 60-80%, etc.

Minimum Dim Level refers to the minimum level the light switch will dim to.

Parameter 1 - Dimming Speed - Local

To change the dimming speed at the switch (locally) on your Gen 1 Dimmer Switch (NZW31), you would select Parameter 1 within your hub and then input a range of 0-100, with each interval equating to 1 second with the default value of 3 meaning that the switch will dim on and off in 3 seconds.

Range, Default, Size & Firmware Version Implemented

  • Range: 0-100

    • 0 = Instant On (Mimics an On/Off Switch)

    • 1 = 1 second

    • 100 = 100 seconds

  • Default: 3

  • Size (Bytes): 1

  • Firmware Version Implemented:

Parameter 2 - Minimum Dim Level

To change the minimum dim level for how low your Gen 1 Dimmer Switch (NZW31) dims to, you would select Parameter 2 within your hub and then input a range of 1-45, where the lower the numeric value equals the lower the minimum dim level (1 = 1%) and the higher the numeric value equals the higher the minimum dim level (45 = 45%) with the default being that the switch will be at 1%.

This is typically used for fixing flickering bulbs or calibrating the bulb if it shuts off prior to 1%.

Range, Default, Size & Firmware Version Implemented

  • Range: 1-45

    • 1 = 1%

    • 45 = 45%

  • Default: 1

  • Size (Bytes): 1

  • Firmware Version Implemented:


LED Indicator, Invert Switch, & Auto Off Timer Parameters

LED Indicator refers to turning on and off the LED Indicator on the bottom of your switch.

Invert Switch refers to inverting the switch (where tapping up on the switch will turn the switch off and tapping down on the switch will turn the switch on)

Auto-Off Timer refers to the switch being turned off after a certain amount of time (in seconds).

Parameter 3 - LED Indicator

To modify the behavior of the LED Indicator on your Gen 1 Dimmer Switch (NZW31), please select Parameter 3 within your hub and then input a range of 0-2, where a value of 0 has the LED off when the switch is on, a value of 1 has the LED on when the switch is on, and a value of 3 has the LED disabled. The default value is 0 (switch on, LED off).

Range, Default, Size & Firmware Version Implemented

  • Range: 0-2

    • 0 = Switch On = LED Off

    • 1 = Switch On = LED On

    • 2 = Disabled

  • Default: 0

  • Size (Bytes): 1

  • Firmware Version Implemented:

Parameter 4 - Invert Switch

To invert your Gen 1 Dimmer Switch (NZW31) (ie: tapping on the up button turns your light off and tapping on the down button turns your light on), you would select Parameter 4 within your hub and then select either 0 to keep it non-inverted or 1 to invert it with the default being that the switch is not inverted (value of 0).

Range, Default, Size & Firmware Version Implemented

  • Range: 0-1

    • 0 = Disabled

    • 1 = Enabled

  • Default: 0

  • Size (Bytes): 1

  • Firmware Version Implemented:

Parameter 5 - Auto-Off Timer

To set an auto-off timer where you can have your Gen 1 Dimmer Switch (NZW31) turn off after a certain amount of seconds, you would select Parameter 3 within your hub and then input a range of 0-32768, where each interval is a second.

Range, Default, Size & Firmware Version Implemented

  • Range: 0-32768

    • 0 = Disabled

    • 1 = 1 second

    • 32767 = 32768 seconds

  • Default: 0

  • Size (Bytes): 2

  • Firmware Version Implemented:
