ZWManagerIsPrimaryController Method

public bool IsPrimaryController(
	uint homeId
)

Public Function IsPrimaryController ( 
	homeId As UInteger
) As Boolean

public:
virtual bool IsPrimaryController(
	[InAttribute] unsigned int homeId
) sealed

Parameters

homeId

Type: SystemUInt32
The Home ID of the Z-Wave controller.

Return Value

The primary controller is the main device used to configure and control a Z-Wave network. There can only be one primary controller - all other controllers are secondary controllers.

The only difference between a primary and secondary controller is that the primary is the only one that can be used to add or remove other devices. For this reason, it is usually better for the primary controller to be portable, since most devices must be added when installed in their final location.

Calls to BeginControllerCommand will fail if the controller is not the primary.
