Behavior within the Z-Wave network
I On factory default the device does not belong to any Z-Wave network. The device needs to
join an existing wireless network to communicate with the devices of this network. This
process is called
Inclusion
. Devices can also leave a network. This process is called
Exclusion
. Both processes are initiated by the primary controller of the Z-Wave network.
This controller will be turned into exclusion respective inclusion mode. Please refer to your
primary controllers manual on how to turn your controller into inclusion or exclusion mode.
Only if the primary controller is in inclusion or exclusion mode, this device can join or leave
the network. Leaving the network - i.e. being excluded - sets the device back to factory
default.
If the device already belongs to a network, follow the exclusion process before including it in
your network. Otherwise inclusion of this device will fail. If the controller being included was
a primary controller, it has to be reset first.
