• Access control: Allows you to set access levels for various users and governs how credentials like fingerprints can operate different components.
• Automation: This new class communicates with other Z-Wave standards, allowing your devices to operate harmoniously in a fully automated home.
• Compatibility between brands: Adopting one wireless standard between different brands enables components to operate together, making the collaboration between Yale and ADT possible.
• Credential management and security: You can create, update, or revoke credentials for Z-wave components and maintain their security with encrypted data transfers.
