Matter capabilities
What a Matter device can do is described in three layers. This page explains them in plain words and lists the device types in the HausMesh catalogue with the clusters each one includes.
The three layers
- Device type
- What kind of thing it is: a plug, a door lock, a colour light. The Matter specification defines each device type and says which clusters it includes.
- Cluster
- One block of behaviour: on and off, level, colour, lock. A cluster is on the server side when a device offers it, and on the client side when a device uses it on another one. See every cluster.
- Feature
- An optional part of a cluster, such as dimming or a colour temperature range. Two devices of one type can differ in the features they have.
The CSA does not publish which clusters and features a particular product implements. What follows is the specification's definition of each device type, so it says what a device of that type includes, not what any one product implements.
