New Z‐Wave Installation Using A2Z‐Link
If a Z‐Wave network has not yet been established at the installation site, this may be done with A2Z‐Link. To add Z‐Wave devices, navigate to the
A2Z‐Link web interface, select the "PLUG‐INS" menu, then Z‐Wave, then Controller Management. Expand Z‐Wave Interfaces and select "Add/Include a
Node" from the Actions drop list. A log window will appear with a "Start" button just above it. Progress will be displayed on the screen as well as any
instructions. Click the Start button and then activate the inclusion process on the device you are adding. Typically, this is done by pressing a button
or switch paddle or by following a sequence of steps ﴾as with many door locks﴿. Consult with the manufacturer's documentation for specific steps, if
you encounter problems with this*. A message will display after the device adds successfully. Click the "Close" button to close the log window when
finished.

procedure above but select the "Remove/Exclude a Node" function instead of
