### ZigBee
-The ZigBee section allows to manage ZigBee networks within nymea. A ZigBee network requires dedicated hardware in order to form a network and add native ZigBee devices into the system. Once a network has been created, the network can be opened in order to allow new ZigBee nodes to join the network. If the ZigBee device is supported, a new thing will appear once the node has been recognized and initialized from an installed ZigBee plugin.

+### Z-Wave
+
+The Z-Wave section allows to manage Z-Wave networks within nymea. In order to use Z-Wave with nymea, a Z-Wave adapter is required.
+
+#### Supported Z-Wave adapters
+
+Pretty much all Z-Wave adapters should work with nymea, given Z-Wave uses a standardized protocol. However here's a list of well tested and known to work adapters. Please report any known to work adapters to nymea so this list can be updated.
+
+* [Aotec](https://aeotec.com/)
+ * [Aeotec Z-Stick Gen5](https://aeotec.com/products/aeotec-z-stick-gen5/): This adapter is also sold as other brands such as the Zooz S2 USB controller.

+#### Setting up a Z-Wave network

+With the Z-Wave adapter connected to the nymea system, a new Z-Wave network can be created from System Settings -> Z-Wave. Multiple Z-Wave adapters may be used to create multiple separated Z-Wave networks.
+
+#### Adding new Z-Wave devices
+
+In order to add a Z-Wave device into a nymea managed network, enter the network settings and press the "Add device" button. Once the network is waiting for the new device to join, the pairing prodecure of the Z-Wave device can be started and the node will join the network. Initiating the pairing procedure on the device may vary between different devices and manufacturers. Please refer to the manual of the device to learn how to start the pairing procedure.

+#### Removing a Z-Wave device
+
+In order to remove a Z-Wave node from the network, enter the Z-Wave settings and press the "Remove device" button. Once the network is waiting for the device to leave, initiate the pairing procedure on the device.
+
+#### Removing / Resetting a Z-Wave network
+
+Z-Wave networks can be removed from nymea. This, however, will not reset the configuration of the Z-Wave controller. A network can be removed from one nymea instance and tranferred to another simply by removing it and creating it again on a different instance.
+
+In order to permanently remove the Z-Wave network from the controller, the "Factory reset controller" button may be used from the Z-Wave network settings. Please note that all devices connected to the Z-Wave network need to be factory reset in order to connect to another Z-Wave network again.

### Web server
Nymea features an integrated web server. The web server is used to host the [nymea debug interface](#debug-interface) but can also be used to host any website.
