Problems solved by technology

[0003] In the current smart home control system using Z-Wave technology, a Z-Wave node can only control the switch of one lamp or the light intensity of one lamp. Each Z-Wave node controls the switch or light intensity of multiple lamps respectively, which wastes a lot of Z-Wave node resources
In addition, the existing dimmers for adjusting the light intensity of lamps all adopt the pulse width modulation method, which has high cost and low cost performance
