Z-Wave Alliance Demos Z-Wave Certified Installer Toolkit for International Installers at ISE 2017

AMSTERDAM, THE NETHERLANDS--(Marketwired - February 07, 2017) - ISE 2017 - Stand 9-D160 -- The Z-Wave Alliance, a global membership organization dedicated to advancing the popular Z-Wave wireless smart home protocol, will host the Z-Wave Pavilion at ISE 2017. The Alliance is also demoing a brand new installation toolkit to make installation and testing of a Z-Wave smart home mesh network even easier for the pro installer community.

The Z-Wave Pavilion will feature smart home products & services for the integrator community at ISE 2017. Featured members in the Pavilion include:

• Aeon Labs
• CBCC Domotique SAS
• Goap (with brand Qubino)
• Leedarson Lighting Co., Ltd.
• Neeo
• Sprue Safety Products
• Vision-Elec. Technology Co., Ltd.
• Vitrum (ThinkSimple)

The Z-Wave Pavilion will also host the Z-Wave interop wall, a showcase of the latest Z-Wave smart home devices including lights, sensors, thermostats and hubs. The Pavilion will also include a demo of the new toolkit designed by the Alliance to help integrators, dealers and service providers with the installation of Z-Wave mesh networks in home control projects.

"ISE is a fantastic show to meet with our installer networks in Europe and show the latest products in the Z-Wave ecosystem. We're excited to demo the Certified Installer Toolkit as well; we want Z-Wave networks to not only be easy to install -- but easy to maintain and troubleshoot," said Mitchell Klein, Z-Wave Alliance Executive Director.

Z-Wave networks by their very nature are easy to get up and running, but occasionally require some trial and error to install with quality and reliability. Technology professionals need robust tools to remove the guesswork from their projects -- the Z-Wave Alliance has created exactly that for all Z-Wave smart home installations. The Z-Wave Certified Installer Toolkit, first demoed at CEDIA EXPO in 2016, is a maintenance and diagnostics device that provides information, both textually and graphically, on the health and stability of your 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.
