Z-Wave troubleshooting
Your Z-Wave device operates within a wireless technology known as "mesh networking". This technology
allows other Z-Wave devices to transmit and send commands to one another through this mesh network.
With any technology, errors can occur within the network, such as power outages, or suddenly
disconnecting a device in the middle of a signal transmission. Z-Wave mesh networks have the ability to
repair themselves seamlessly to reduce additional troubleshooting by the end-user.
Notice
If required, run Z-Wave repairs overnight when use is at a minimal, to reduce down time. The duration of
a repair to be completed is dependent on the number of Z-Wave devices active on your network. Allow
your system up to 10 hours to perform any repairs needed before you resume use of your G100.
To repair your Z-Wave network, perform the following:
1.
Go to Settings.
2.
Go to Z-Wave settings.
3.
Select the Repair tab.
Click the "GO" button.
4.
After the repair finishes, you can view a repair report that can identify which nodes (devices) on your
network have weaker connections. This can help you identify locations where you might need to move or
add a repeater module to improve the Z-Wave network performance.
Notice
Most non-battery powered devices act as a repeater within the Z-Wave network.
