Amsterdam, The Netherlands –– February 6-9, 2018 – ISE 2018 – Stand 9-F170 ––The Z-Wave Alliance, a global membership organization dedicated to advancing the popular Z-Wave wireless smart home protocol, is now shipping the award-winning Z-Wave Certified Installer Toolkit (CIT) and demoing it to installers at ISE 2018.

Z-Wave networks are generally easy to install but the Z-Wave Alliance has created a tool that helps integrators and smart home professionals ensure the quality and reliability of their work. The Z-Wave Certified Installer Toolkit is a maintenance and diagnostics device that provides information, both textually and graphically, on the health and stability of any Z-Wave network. The tool measures Z-Wave RF wireless signals, providing help with configuration or compatibility issues as they happen during setup or upgrading.

With the Alliance’s database of all Z-Wave certified products, detailed information is available instantly on any certified product being installed. The toolkit provides access to everything from technical Z-Wave protocol information to the original owner’s manual for each product that has gone through Z-Wave Plus certification. The toolkit is also field upgradable, making it future-proof for any new updates or advancements in products or the platform itself. The easy to navigate user interface is accessible through a web browser, making it available on a mobile phone, tablet or laptop computer on the road.
 
The Z-Wave Certified Installer Toolkit features include:

  • Comprehensive network diagnostics, device management and routing tables to ensure a solid mesh network is in place
  • A built-in web server that allows the toolkit to be placed in the customer’s Z-Wave network and connected using any web browser through Wi-Fi.
  • Z-Wave Network Sniffer (ZNiffer) functionality – will display information about the Z-Wave transmissions taking place around the area where the tool is placed.
  • Spectrum Analyzer – will show basic information on the Z-Wave frequency range.
