Remotely via Gateway (Parameter 120)
Set Parameter No. 120 to 1 to trigger remote factory reset.
Z-Wave® Security and Device Specific Key (DSK)
The device supports Security 2 (S2) using AES-128 encryption, making Z-Wave® one of the most secure IoT platforms.
- Authenticated Control supported: Out-of-band DSK for inclusion
- Supports S2 Authenticated, Unauthenticated, and Unsecure inclusion
🔑 When using S2-enabled gateway, the 5-digit PIN Code from the DSK label is required.
Do not remove the DSK label. Keep the backup copy in packaging.
The first five digits are highlighted/underlined. DSK also includes a QR code.
Obfuscation Rule
When joining S2 Access Control or Authenticated Class, the public key is obfuscated by setting bytes 1–2 to 0x00.
The DSK can be used for out-of-band (OOB) authentication:
- Gateway scans QR code to read full DSK
- Matches against obfuscated public key received via RF
