simple reference design featuring the latest generation Z-Wave

SoC, the EFR32ZG14 Zen Gecko, as a gateway and controller for

smart home applications.

The UZB-7 exposes the well-documented and proven Z-Wave Serial API via USB. It al-

lows the host processor to control up to 232 Z-Wave and Z-Wave Plus devices through

the Z-Wave protocol. With the developer PC application software, PC Controller, or any
