## {% linkable_title Controller Notes }
### {% linkable_title Aoetec Stick }
By default this will turn on "disco lights", which you can turn off by following the instructions in the [device specific page](/docs/z-wave/device-specific/#aeon-z-stick)
### {% linkable_title Razberry Board }
You need to disable the on-board Bluetooth since the board requires the use of the hardware UART (and there's only one on the Pi3). You do this by following the instructions in the [device specific page](/docs/z-wave/device-specific/#razberry-board)
