Hi,

In the description of the z-wave module for pine64, it is described as a "z-wave" module, not a "z-wave plus". So this is an old implementation of the specs. Correct ??

Then, what API will be available ? z-wave is not an open sourced protocol, will we get an API licensed from the "z-wave owner" ?
The z-wave module has been discussed in this thread as well: Australia/New Zealand Z-Wave module

Yes, I've seen that thread but there is no clear answer regarding zwave or zwave+ and nobody raised the issue of API "official or reverse ingineering".

The Z-Wave module is Zwave Plus, The API is official one, NOT reverse engineering type.
