The 6.51.03 release of the SDK fully enables the advanced functionality found in Sigma Designs 500 Series SoC platform and includes:
- Z-Wave Plus Application Framework : A robust library of field-proven source code that further improves the already industry-leading cost and time to market advantages of Z-Wave technology, allowing developers to focus on products and applications by dedicating less time to lower-level coding. Z-Wave Plus Application framework also provides fully-realized device sample code which is fully interoperable with existing and future Z-Wave based products.
- Installation and Maintenance Application ( IMA): A set of sample code and APIs that are optimized for querying and monitoring network performance and health. These new tools make it easy for developers to build sophisticated network health and robustness indicators as well as built-in self-test and remote maintenance capabilities, reducing the need for truck rolls and simplifying repairs.
- Over-the-Wire Firmware update via Serial API (OTW): This feature enhances the SerialAPI firmware update by adding UART firmware update through SerialAPI for devices that exclusively use the Z-Wave Serial API.
- Multi-Channel Beaming: Battery saving FLiRs (Frequently Listening Routing Slave) beaming capabilities on all three RF channels increases the communication efficiency of this battery saving technique in multi-channel environments.
- RF regulatory support for operation in Republic of Korea.
"The momentum for the Internet of Things has led to explosive growth of the home control market, and we are constantly looking for ways to create a faster and easier route for developers to get to market," said Raoul Wijgergangs, Vice President of Sigma Designs' Z-Wave Business Line. "This new SDK delivers a quantum leap for Z-Wave 500 series hardware developers, as the tools provided minimize the need for custom coding and reduce errors, even for first-time developers."
The 6.51.03 release is now available to all Z-Wave technology licensees. For more information Sigma Designs' industry-leading 500 Series RF transceiver platforms and development kits, please visit:
