Failed Devices
(Failed Nodes)
When the system tries to operate a Z-Wave device that has no AC power or other problems,
it is identified as a Failed Device. The system may take up to a minute after the operation to
detect the failure.
To view Failed Devices:
1. On the Automation Management screen, select View Failed Devices.
The panel displays "Failed Nodes Found!"
2. Press OK.
3. The device's information is displayed. If multiple devices are listed, use the up and
down arrows at right to view the entire list.
NOTE: When troubleshooting, first make sure that power has been restored.
If a device is defective or otherwise unavailable, use the Fix All option.
1. Select Fix All on the right side of the screen. The system displays "This will delete all
failed nodes."
2. Press Yes to confirm.
Devices deleted with Fix All must be added to the system again. See
Devices (Include).
Failed Z-Wave devices are also indicated by a
screen or the symbol appearing in gray on the Home screen.
Important Notes About Z-Wave Devices
WARNING: NOT FOR USE WITH MEDICAL OR LIFE SUPPORT EQUIPMENT!
Z-Wave enabled devices should never be used to supply power to, or control the On/Off
status of medical and/or life support equipment.
Wireless Range
This device complies with the Z-Wave
distances of 100 feet. Actual performance in a home depends on the number of walls
between the controller
of Z-Wave enabled devices installed in the control network.
Note that Z-Wave home control networks are designed to work properly alongside wireless
security sensors, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and other wireless devices. Some 900MHz wireless devices
such as baby cams, wireless video devices and older cordless phones may cause interference
and limit Z-Wave functionality.
Things to consider regarding RF range:
• Each wall or obstacle (refrigerators, large TVs, etc.) between the remote and the destination
device can reduce the maximum range of 100 feet by approximately 25-30%.
• Brick, tile or concrete walls block more of the RF signal than walls made of wooden
studs and drywall.
•
Wall mounted Z-Wave devices installed in metal junction boxes will suffer a significant loss
of range (approximately 20%) since the metal box blocks a large part of the RF signal.
Additional Z-Wave Information

• The system supports a maximum of
time a device is Included, even if the device is being re-added to the system after
being Excluded. This can cause the number of nodes in the system to exceed the
number of actual devices.
• If the limit of 232 nodes is met and you need to add or re-Include more Z-Wave
devices, use the Reset

numbers can be viewed by selecting Automation > Tools > Advanced Tools > View
