 ZWave does not support sending the ramp rate for individual commands as many other protocols do. However you can generally set the default ramp rate for the individual dimmers. Many models even support setting separate ramp rates for local control vs automatic control. With this command you could potentially change the ramp rate during the day or before specific commands while still maintaining a faster response for changes at the switch itself. You might wish to have a very slow fade in the morning to bring up your lights but to turn them on quickly later in response to motion which you could do via this command if the device supports that. ZWave does not support sending the ramp rate for individual commands as many other protocols do.
