Title: Is it possible to enable/disable the radio wave Z-Wave and Zigbee ?
Post by: beller on August 25, 2014, 03:28:36 pm
it appear that it's enabled as default, i have only z-wave devices, no Zigbee devices so i can switch off zigbee, but, how ?

Unfortunately, I don't have an answer to your question, but I'm curious why you would find this necessary?

RF pollution.. troubleshooting a particular sensor type ..Its not a bad idea that if you dont need or already have something transmitting to turn it off..

This will help the wifi coverage too. ;)

I doubt it. It does not interfere with wifi frequencies.

WiFi, Zigbee and Bluetooth all operate in the 2.4Ghz range.  Each of them are designed to operate in areas with other types of signals.  But, these signals still decrease the signal to noise ratio and therefore the radio performance.

Zigbee does use part of the 2.4GHz area, but Z-Wave is in the 900MHz region in the US.

The Z-Wave Radio uses the 868.42 MHz SRD Band (Europe); the 900 MHz ISM band: 908.42 MHz (United States); 916 MHz (Israel); 919.82 MHz (Hong Kong); 921.42 MHz (Australian/New Zealand).
