Z-Wave Battery Tip
We recommend Lithium-based batteries (such as the Energizer Lithium Ultimate AAAs) for all Z-Wave devices. Although more expensive, the improved life/performance is well worth the money.
Z-Stick
Adding Z-Wave Devices with a Z-Stick
- Before you can add devices, you must install the Z-Stick
- Disconnect the Z-Stick from the system
- Press the blue-ringed button on the stick for several seconds to put it in Delete Mode – rapid blink
- At the first device, press the button on the device to delete it from the stick. (Do this even if you have not added the device to the stick yet.)
- Press the blue-ringed button to turn off delete mode, then press the button again to put the Z-Stick in Add Mode – slow blink
- At the same device, press the button on the device to add it to the stick – the blue ring will go solid
- Repeat steps 3 - 6 for each device
- Plug the Z-Stick back into the system
- On the touchscreen:
- Press the System (Gear) button
- Enter the 4-digit System PIN (which is set, and can be viewed, on the Advanced Settings screen in the Care Menu)
- Press "Devices"
- Press the "Scan Zwave Network" button - the scan will start automatically
- Some devices may show up as "Unknown Device" - these may have gone back to sleep. Press the program button on the device again, then click the Unknown Device on the Devices screen, and click the "Rescan" button.
Z-Troller
Adding Z-Wave Devices with a Z-Troller
- Before you can add devices, you must install the Z-Troller
- At the first device, press and hold Delete on the Z-Troller and press the program button on the device. The Z-Troller should flash "done."
- Press and hold Add/Scan on the Z-Troller and press the program button on the device. The Z-Troller should give you the node ID of the device.
- Repeat steps 2 and 3 for each device
- On the touchscreen:
- Press the System (Gear) button
- Enter the 4-digit System PIN (which is set, and can be viewed, on the Advanced Settings screen in the Care Menu)
- Press "Devices"
- Press the "Scan Z-Wave Network" button - the scan will start automatically
- Some devices may show up as "Unknown Device" - these may have gone back to sleep. Press the program button on the device again, then click the Unknown Device on the Devices screen, and click the "Rescan" button.
