2.2.7. Anti-theft Command Class, version 1 [OBSOLETED]

Warning

THIS COMMAND CLASS VERSION HAS BEEN OBSOLETED New implementations MUST use the Anti-theft Command Class, version 2 [DEPRECATED] or newer.

The Anti-theft Command Class is used to disable a subset of supported/controlled command classes in a device if the device is being excluded and re-included into a Z-Wave network again. This command class is typically used when installing a Z-Wave device in a public location such as a hotel room or conference center. The command class allows the user to lock the device to the actual Z-Wave network and to render it useless if it is removed from the local network without being unlocked. Another application would be to protect service provider owned products from leaving the service providers network before they are paid for.

Version 2 limits the Magic Code and Anti-theft Hint maximum bytes to 10. This makes it possible to embed Anti-theft Command Class Version 2 in one Security Command Class and thereby avoid splitting it.
