automatically repeats or passes the signal from one device to the next utilizing them as
temporary hubs.
This way it effectively extends the range of the network by passing the request from one node
to another (can be done up to a maximum of 4 hops). Likewise, if two devices are not within
range of one another, a route can be manually assigned to the source module (the module
sending the information).
This essentially enables devices to communicate at long ranges since the signal is repeated or
“bounced” until it reaches the receiving module.
Link or ‘associate’ one or more modules, except that the controller stores not only the
association, but also the dim level for each Module.
Dim level is stored while a Module is added to a scene. Consequently, when a scene is
activa
ted, the Modules will all go to their previously defined dim levels regardless of what their
most recent dim level may have been. Some Modules may get brighter while others may be
pre-programmed by the user to become dimmer. Due to the fact that appliance and wall
switch modules are switching devices without dimming capability, they will either be defined
as default ON or OFF status when added to a scene.
In cryptography, SHA-1 is a cryptographic hash function designed by the US National Security
Agency and published by the US NIST as a U.S. Federal Information Processing Standard.
Subscriber Identification Module.
An integrated circuit that securely stores the International Mobile Subscriber Identity (IMSI)
and the related key used to identify and authenticate subscribers on mobile telephony
devices (such as mobile phones and computers).

Short Message Peer-to-Peer.
An open, industry standard protocol designed to provide a flexible data communication
interface for the transfer of short message data between External Short Messaging Entities
(ESME), Routing Entities (RE) and Message Centers.
A text messaging service component of phone, web, or mobile communication systems.
It uses standardized communications protocols that allow the exchange of short text
messages between fixed line or mobile phone devices.
Short Message Service Center.
A cellular operator’s infrastructure for sending/receiving SMS messages.
When sending SMS messages, the user may connect directly to a provider’s infrastructure for
