Do you have to use something like z wave technology for this to work?

No the lock works by itself. You do need a smart hub to access the locks remotely, and use the connections d features.

You don't need it unless you want to use your phone or computer to control it

No the z wave technology is for paring with your phone so you could unlock the door remotely. When inside you use the the knob manually to lock & unlock & outside you use the key pad and code and the lock activates automatically. Hope that helps.

Yes that should work fine as long as you can enroll into the z-wave network.

I have no answer right now since our house construction is not yet done and our internet connection is not yet functional. I shall answer this question later when I will be able to set up our z-wave network using the micasa verde controller.

Not directly. You need to have a z-wave controller, like a Vera, act as the middleman.

You definitely need a z-wave capable controller like a MiCasaVerde controller.

I use it with the Micasa Vera system. Using the Vera as an intermediary (with extremely comprehensive support for all zwave devices), you can have it work in tandem with nearly any other device via triggers/scenes. I usually avoid any weird device-to-device programming, as it is complicated and I'd probably forget how I had things connected after a few years anyway!

No. This is not a Z-Wave device. This device communicates over 345MHz with the 2GIG control panel. The 2GIG panel supports 345MHz and Z-Wave (~900MHz).

Yes. Per the specs found on another site: "Repeats Z-Wave commands to other devices."

I have GE Z-wave units and it works with them. I think you will find that all Z-Wave units are made by one manufacturer (in China) and every body else slaps their name on them. Hope this helps!

while i cant technically fully answer your question but i have yet to run into a device that doesn't work. I found that the lowes system (cant remember the name) does nit work as I suspect it is more proprietary. Zwave itself is an open design so there are many devices that work. BTW the zwave locks are great because they can disarm the alarm and vice a versa.

Sort of... You use this by plugging into your PC and it is the hardware part of the hub you need to control Z-Wave devices. This acts as the hardware you need to communicate with the Z-Wave devices which are not on Wi-Fi or Bluetooth spectrum. Once you have this you still need software. I think that InControl Home Automation is tested with the Aeon stick. I didn't have any success getting consistent communication with InControl though. I ended up with a google TV and EnBlink stick instead of this and InControl. The Enblink setup has worked flawlessly.

It works with 2GIG Alarm panels, which at one time Vivant was using so shouldn't be an issue assuming you have the installer code to add zwave devices.

Yes, you have to a controlling hub. It might work with other Z-Wave hubs but it's intended to be used with the SmartThings hub

No, however I use a zwave outlet and just plug in a cd converter with an appropriate relay. Very simple

No problems. Been using mine for about a year, but I'm not using the zwave.

Yes, you can use it to add for example a doorbell to your Z-Wave network, but then you have to forgo the magnetic sensor part.

This and all Z-Wave devices are compatible with the SmartThings hubs. It appears Z-Wave is not compatible with Wink protocols.
