3.5. Excluding device from the network (EXCLUDE function)
Excluding the device from the “Z-Wave” network is possible only with the use of PRIMARY
controller (e.g. ZWP remote control). In each network there is always only one primary controller and every
other is categorized as SECONDARY. The procedure of device excluding from the network is presented in
Figure 6
.
*) Programming error may be caused by:
•
failure to press the programming button within 10 seconds from controller signaling its readiness for
excluding the device from the network;
•
long distance between the controller and device being excluded.
Note !!!
Each device physically deleted from the network (e.g. damaged) shall be deleted from the controller's
memory (PRIMARY, SECONDARY), that is, first deleted from a pair of buttons (section 3.4) and then deleted
from the network (3.5). Appropriate implementation of procedures aims to provide optimal communication
between devices. Disconnecting the device without deleting it from the controller's memory will result in longer
time of reaction of devices on commands and faster running out of batteries. In case of necessity of deleting
damaged device, which deleting from the controller's memory is not possible, it is recommended to re-
configurate the whole network (all devices). Configuration of the new network begins with restoring the
controller to factory settings (DEFAULT function), and then EXCLUDE function is used and next we go
further to the section 3 „Controller programming”.
Note !!!
When moving the device within the network, it is recommended to delete it from the controller's
memory (first deleting from a pair of buttons, section 3.4) an then deleting it from the network (section 3.5) and
re-adding after installation in new workplace.

Note!!!
In the new version of the controller, stopping of any procedure is possible by pressing of „IN/EX” buttons. In
older version, it is necessary to wait 10 sec. until the moment of signalling the error by the controller or resetting it by
removing the batteries.
