ID	Description	Value
24	Controller Exclusion	1. Launch Composer. In Connections in the Z-Wave Network, click Remove in the Available Devices window. 2 Remove the Z-Wave device from the network according to the manufacturer’s instructions, usually by pressing a Z-Wave button on the device. See the documentation for the Z-Wave device for more information. 3 If the device was removed successfully, the timer will stop and the window will say the devices was removed from the network. 4 If the device is not removed from the network before the timer ends, close the window and click the Remove button to try again.
23	Controller Inclusion	Note: Z-Wave requires a Z-Wave module connected to an EA controller. See the Z-Wave Module Installation Guide for more help. 1. Launch Composer. In the Project Tree, select the Project Name (top line of the project tree) object for the project properties to appear. 2 Click on the Z-Wave Configuration tab. 3 Check the box under Z-Wave Enabled for the controller you want to be your Z-Wave controller. 4 In System Design, enter the name of driver for the device that you wish to enter into your Z-Wave network in the Search tab. 5 Double-click on the device to add it into the project. You can also right-click on the device and select Add to Project to add the device driver. 6 If you have more than a couple of Z-Wave devices, it is recommended that you rename this driver to help with troubleshooting multiple devices. Right-click on the driver and select Rename. Enter a descriptive name and press Enter. 7 In Connections in the Network tab, select Z-Wave Network. 8 Double-click on the Z-Wave device driver to open the identify window or highlight the device and click on the Identify button. 9 Identify (add) the Z-Wave device according to the manufacturer’s instructions, usually by pressing a Z-Wave button on the device. See the documentation for the Z-Wave device for more information. 10 If the device is added, configured, and identified successfully, the address will show in the address field and the timer instructions will change to say “Identification Successful”. Note: Only one Z-Wave controller can be configured in a Control4 project. The configuration should show a status of “Secure” when it is configured properly. If the Status field is empty, make sure the Z-Wave module is connected and installed properly, and that the EA controller is online and identified in the project.
3	Learn Mode (adding another controller)	1. Launch Composer. In the Project Tree, select the Project Name (top line of the project tree) object for the project properties to appear. 2 Click on the Z-Wave Configuration tab. 3 Press the Learn button. This option joins the selected controller to another open Z-Wave mesh. This action will change the Home ID of the controller, and any devices on the previous Home ID will no longer be available. If the controller is joined to a mesh that contains a Node ID controller (SUC/SIS), the controller will be an Inclusion controller with the Home ID of the mesh it joined.
5	Factory Reset	Use this procedure only in the event that the network primary controller is missing or otherwise inoperable. 1. Launch Composer. Click on the Z-Wave Configuration tab in the project properties window. 2. Click on ""Reset Defaults"". This clears the Home ID on the Z-Wave controller and abandons any nodes on the existing network. Any Z-Wave devices previously joined to the network must be removed before they can join the new network.
