= Pluto Source Code =
 +
The pluto project at one point in time included zwave control classes.  The source code for these classes was published for some time at svn.plutohome.com.  These classes are no longer published.  However, substantial details of framing formats were derivable from that source code. 
 +
 +
Some snippets that explain how to construct some interesting PDUs are the following (all snippets from code that was labelled GPLed at the top.  Full interpretation of this code requires access to the z-wave SDK headers, which are labelled proprietary and thus are not included here):

=Framing=
 +
Serial PDUs are framed with a simple framing protocol.  Byte value 0x01 is start of frame, or SOF.  The second octet is the length in bytes of the frame, excluding the SOF or the length octet.  Assume that value was n for this frame.  The next n - 1 octets are the framed payload.  The last octet is a checksum computed by xoring a 0xff seed with all octets of the payload.  The checksum includes the length field, but not the SOF byte or the checksum byte itself.  This information is derived from the pluto source code, along with observation of the serial protocol from existing commercial software.

These notes are for Microsoft Windows.  Linux should be easier.
 +
 +
Get a copy of Device Monitoring Studio.  These instructions were written with version 5.11.  Use an HA22 device or other serial or usb-to-serial Z-wave dongle.  Monitor the serial port for an event.  Add the "Request" view in DMS.  Do your operations in the software that will interact with the HA22.  No click on the "complete" tab in the request view.  Right click and choose "export".  Save the .htm file that results.
 +
 +
The resulting HTML is pretty verbose.  Some simple regexps can pull out interesting details.  That results in transcriptions like the ones you see below.

Introduction

The ZWave API is not available for free. You have to get the Zensys SDK for command specifications and device class definitions. This page tries to collect all the freely available information about ZWave. The final goal is to provide a header file with all necessary definitions for basic operation with open source software.

IMPORTANT: all information added to this page _must_ have a reference to the source where it came from.

API

Frame specification

Karl Denning implemented basic ZWave support in his software "HomeDaemon". He advised that basic frame specification can be derived from his source code (http://www.intouchcontrolsforum.com/forums/showpost.php?s=e11a812b08256225ebb66a73d8f6d193&p=173&postcount=13).

Basic Classes

From the Leviton Z-Wave RS232 ASCII Interface Programming Guide (RZC0P-1LW, 10/9/2007): 

Controller         1
Static controller  2
Slave              3
Routing Slave      4

that leads us to some definitions: 

#define OZA_BASIC_CLASS_CONTROLLER         0x01
#define OZA_BASIC_CLASS_STATIC_CONTROLLER  0x02
#define OZA_BASIC_CLASS_SLAVE              0x03
#define OZA_BASIC_CLASS_ROUTING_SLAVE      0x04

Device Types

From the Z-Wave Configuration Information-1.pdf: 

CONTROLLER       0x01 (like the ZTH200,    Classes: )
SWITCH/APPLIANCE 0x10 (ZRP200,             Classes: 25, 27, 75)
DIMMER           0x11 (ZDP200, ZDW230, .., Classes: 26, 27, 75, ...)
TRANSMITTER      0x12
THERMOSTAT       0x08
SHUTTER          0x09

Interesting string: 

 0x1 0x2 0x4 0x4 0x1d 0x3 0x0 0x0 0x0 ...
 0x1 means it is a response
 0x2 means it is initialization data
 0x4 is the version
 0x4 is the capabilities

LMCE will look for the next 4 bytes to get the list of devices. It seems to be a bit map. In this case, the first byte is 0x3 or in binary 00000011 so devices ID 1 and 2 are present. It is unclear to me why we only look at 4 bytes (32 zwave devices) while the protocol supports 252

Pluto Source Code

The pluto project at one point in time included zwave control classes. The source code for these classes was published for some time at svn.plutohome.com. These classes are no longer published. However, substantial details of framing formats were derivable from that source code.

Some snippets that explain how to construct some interesting PDUs are the following (all snippets from code that was labelled GPLed at the top. Full interpretation of this code requires access to the z-wave SDK headers, which are labelled proprietary and thus are not included here):

  • JobSwitchChangeLevel
       setState(ZWaveJob::RUNNING);
 	size_t len = 9;
 	char data[9];
 	data[0] = REQUEST;
 	data[1] = FUNC_ID_ZW_SEND_DATA;
 	data[2] = (char)d->nodeID;
 	data[3] = DATA_LEN;  // 3
 	data[4] = COMMAND_CLASS_SWITCH_MULTILEVEL;
 	data[5] = SWITCH_MULTILEVEL_SET;
 	data[6] = d->level;
 	data[7] = TRANSMIT_OPTION_ACK | TRANSMIT_OPTION_AUTO_ROUTE;
 	data[8] = 1;
  • JobSwitchBinaryGet
   setState(ZWaveJob::RUNNING);
   size_t len = 8;
   char data[8];
   data[0] = REQUEST;
   data[1] = FUNC_ID_ZW_SEND_DATA;
   data[2] = (char)d->nodeID;
   data[3] = DATA_LEN;
   data[4] = COMMAND_CLASS_SWITCH_MULTILEVEL;
   data[5] = SWITCH_BINARY_GET;
   data[6] = TRANSMIT_OPTION_ACK | TRANSMIT_OPTION_AUTO_ROUTE;
   data[7] = 2;
   return handler()->sendData(data, len);
  • JobSetLearnNodeState
   char buffer[10];

   buffer[0] = REQUEST;
   buffer[1] = FUNC_ID_ZW_SET_LEARN_NODE_STATE;
   buffer[2] = mode();
   buffer[3] = 1; // Callback FunctionID
   buffer[4] = 0;

   setState(ZWaveJob::RUNNING);

   d->failed = false;

   return handler()->sendData(buffer, 3);

Z-Wave protocol Reset: 

 First command: /** */

 01 08 00 03 01 02 01 01 21 D6

 00 = request
 03 = FUNC_ID_SERIAL_API_APPL_NODE_INFORMATION
 01 = listening /** not moving */
 02 = node generic type, GENERIC_TYPE_STATIC_CONTROLLER
 01 = node specific type, SPECIFIC_TYPE_PORTABLE_REMOTE_CONTROLLER
 01 = param length
 21 = COMMAND_CLASS_CONTROLLER_REPLICATION

// wait for ACK 

 ________________________________________________________________

 Second command: /** Reset to factory default. */

 01 04 00 42 01 B8

 00 = request
 42 = FUNC_ID_ZW_SET_DEFAULT
 01 = Callback FunctionID

 Answer:

 06
 01 04 00 42 01 B8

 06 = ACK

 01 = SOF
 04 = Length
 00 = Request
 42 = FUNC_ID_ZW_SET_DEFAULT
 01 = Callback FunctionID
 B8 = checksum

Framing

Serial PDUs are framed with a simple framing protocol. Byte value 0x01 is start of frame, or SOF. The second octet is the length in bytes of the frame, excluding the SOF or the length octet. Assume that value was n for this frame. The next n - 1 octets are the framed payload. The last octet is a checksum computed by xoring a 0xff seed with all octets of the payload. The checksum includes the length field, but not the SOF byte or the checksum byte itself. This information is derived from the pluto source code, along with observation of the serial protocol from existing commercial software.

Capturing your own sample transactions

These notes are for Microsoft Windows. Linux should be easier.

Get a copy of Device Monitoring Studio. These instructions were written with version 5.11. Use an HA22 device or other serial or usb-to-serial Z-wave dongle. Monitor the serial port for an event. Add the "Request" view in DMS. Do your operations in the software that will interact with the HA22. No click on the "complete" tab in the request view. Right click and choose "export". Save the .htm file that results.

The resulting HTML is pretty verbose. Some simple regexps can pull out interesting details. That results in transcriptions like the ones you see below.
