This feature allows you to restore the whole system to factory settings. It means the factory software version will be restored and all data from the system A and B will be deleted (users, devices, scenes etc.). If the gateway is set as Z-Wave secondary controller use this procedure only when the primary controller is missing or otherwise inoperable. 1. Open the Configuration Interface. 2. In the top right corner click user name 3. Choose Recovery Mode from the menu. 4. Confirm. 5. Wait for the system to reboot, the LED indicator will be pulsing red. 6. When the LED indicator turns solid red, refresh the browser tab. 7. Click Factory Reset under Network Status section. 8. Check “Yes, I’m sure and I know what I’m doing” checkbox. 9. Confirm. 10.2: RESETTING Z-WAVE TO FACTORY DEFAULTS Resetting the Z-Wave network removes all the Z-Wave devices from the gateway’s memory, but the other data remains unchanged. Scenes that used Z-Wave devices will not work anymore. 1. Open the Configuration Interface. 2. Go to [gearwheel image] > Z-Wave. 3. Under Reset Z-Wave click Reset. 4. Confirm.
9	Capability Rediscovery	8: REDISCOVERING Z-WAVE DEVICES Rediscovery – the process of reading the device’s capabilities after altering them. 1. Open the Configuration Interface. 2.
