1 INTRODUCTION The Z-Wave PC based Controller application is based on the Z-Wave DLL. The applications have a thin GUI layer and all the Z-Wave specific code are placed in the DLL for easier application development. The Z-Wave PC based Controller application is implemented in C# using Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 SP1 and.net Framework 3.5. For details regarding the Z-Wave PC based Controller application, refer to [1]. Notice: Security S2 functionality is not tested/supported in conjunction with SDK 6.51.xx and 6.61.xx. silabs.com Building a more connected world. Page 1 of 5
2 RELEASES 2.1 Z-Wave PC based Controller v5.30 The Z-Wave PC based Controller code contains an example of how to include, exclude and control the devices included in the SDK. The PC based Controller now supports both non-secure and security S0/S2. In addition, the Z-Wave PC based Controller supports the Z/IP Gateway. System information can be replicated to and from the other controllers. The Z-Wave PC based Controller accepts both a Serial API based Static and Bridge Controller. For detailed information, refer to [1]. 2.1.1 New features 2.1.1.1 Smart Start Inclusion PC Controller provides Z-Wave Smart Start functionality which ensures that S2 network keys are not handled out to an attacker. In the Smart Start view possible to add new or view existing DSK to allow inclusion of devices with Security S2 without user s participation. Smart Start contains Device Specific Key (DSK) list the Provisioning List. During inclusion with Security S2 the PC Controller selects required key. silabs.com Building a more connected world.
