Our church shares space in a building that has the parking light (6 poles, 1xx watts per bulb) 30amp switch installed with
In order to remote schedule and turn on/off parking lights at night we are looking for a solution and this seems it would be a good replacement for it. Does anyone have any experience with this unit?
Also the hub and the switch will be separated by a wall in adjacent building, would that be a problem?
company A has the lighting switch, company B will host the hub hooked up to company B’s wifi.
Electrically, the CA3750 can replace your ET1125C.

Assuming that the “hub” is a Vera and the “switch” is a CA3750, then the question is; Will the Z-Wave signal reach? I can’t answer this decisively. If the wall is something like drywall, and the distance is not too great, then it will likely work fine. But, if the wall material is something more impervious to radio signals like concrete or stone, then we can’t be sure. If it is a steel wall, then the signal will NOT pass.
These are issues faced by any wireless technology. However, the CA3750 does suffer from a poor design issue where the Z-Wave radio is sandwiched between two circuit boards that block the Z-Wave signal. This results in zones around the CA3750 where signal is poor or non-existent. Treat the CA3750 as a device having short range, especially through concrete walls. If this is a problem for you, then the solution is to add other Z-Wave routing nodes to improve the signal quality for the CA3750.

I have no idea what this means.
