Do the Zwave remotes control the devices like outlets or switches directly, or do you need a "master controller"?

You buy a module for each device you want to control and one remote controls all module. I think I have 12 modules and have them programmed on two buttons because they are on different schedules. The system works perfectly and I love it!

The GE 45601 remote can act as a primary or secondary controller. As a primary controller, you can create a network, add devices, and control devices without any other controllers.

It can work either way. If you have a Master controller, then you set these up as secondaries, and can clone all devices and control from either. Or, if you have no Master, then you just add the devices directly to THIS device's own network as Master.

This one came with the zwave rf module and integrated into my Homeseer automation system seemlesly. So yes it comes with the zwave rf module (they can come without one), you still need a controller of your choosing.

It will work as long as your dimmers or Z-Wave. I had no luck getting the controller to work with a Z-Wave on/off (non-dimmer) switch. (Just a heads up)

Currently I am using it with UStream and it only displays Master Control. Sorry I couldn't be more help! : )

Installs in place of a standard light switch, not 3 way where two switches control the same set of lights. It is wireless to turn on and off and dim if you have a Z-Wave controller. It replaces your existing switch and must be wired in to work.

No. You can buy a remote that will control several of these. Or you can buy a controller that will allow you to control the outlet or mutilple outlets or switches with your smart phone or to set up lights to come on and turn off at certain times. There are also light switches that will replace an existing switch that you could also use to control this outlet. If you are just wanting one remote device, depending on what your planning to plug in, there are several different types of controller out there. Lowes sells a lamp switch with a remote. For years I've used X10 switches and I'm in the process of switching to insteon. No. You can buy a remote that will control several of these.

Given that both devices communicate with the Z-Wave protocol yes. You will need a device to program the scene controller with (essentially to associate the GE device with a button on the controller). I know that leviton makes a hand held controller, or if you plan on whole house control you can look into something like the Vera.

Supposedly if you can learn it into your zwave network, it should be able to control a garage door by sending a quick on then off again signal. I am 0 for 2 getting mine to actually control the door. One blew out as soon as I applied 120v, the other one seems to work and I can hear the relay click, but nothing happens.

It depends on the construction of the house and if there are any other Z-wave devices between this one and the controll system. If there is another one near it that works this one should work as they all talk to one another when any of them is being functioned.

No, sorry it is not. Z Wave requires a different controller than does Insteon.

One plug is zwave and the other is a normal plug. So you only control one device.

No. It's a Z-Wave enabled device and you need a Z-Wave enabled controller. I use the one comes from Front-Point Security.

Dunno. This I do know...we've established a system using a mixture of GE and Leviton components and driven by a Leviton controller/timer without a hitch. Awkward to program, but it's been operating for more than 6 months w/o missing an event. Z-Wave is pricey; it's also reliable.

This remote will only turn on/off a single z-wave outlet if that outlet supports direct associations, which GE devices do not. You could use an evolve outlet or a leviton, but not a GE outlet without a controller like Micasaverde, Vera. The controller can do this NOT the 45601 directly, unless like I mentioned, you use a device that can do direct association such as evolve, leviton or aeon labs. Multiple remotes ARE possible but with the same limitations as above, it doesn't matter how many you have. As far as your last question, timer functions can be done with a controller, but the 45601 only does time of day events, not incremental events.

Yes, for zwave. You need to buy the expensive internet controller and the lock needs an internet adapter. However, I would not buy this lock as I feel it has issues.

This is only an "add on", meant to work in concert with a main controller switch. This switch doesn't receive any z-wave signals and only facilitates the extension of the circuit to a 3 or 4 way circuit.

I am currently controlling a VCR, a Blueray player, a TV, and a stereo system in my living room, from my master bedroom (using one transmitter) and from my dining room and kitchen (using a second transmitter). Note that I have to use the actual remotes for each device (or else program a new controller to mimic them).
