You'll need to install the custom Edge driver to add the Universal Relay correctly and have full control of all the device's channels.
Before including your device, ensure the ZEN17 is properly powered. The power supply only provides power to the Z-Wave chip and electronics within the unit. Therefore, the power supply doesn't need to be rated for a lot of power,
- USB C with a 1 A Power Adapter plug (you just need a USB-C wall adapter, the USB-C cable is included with the device)
- The power adapter must be a basic 5V / 1A USB-C power supply. Do not use Apple chargers or any USB PD (Power Delivery) adapters, as they may output higher voltage and damage the device.
- 12-24 V AC/DC adapter (or any other 12-24 V AC/DC power supply)
- We highly suggest testing the output voltage of your power supply, especially when powering the ZEN17 from a 24V transformer. We're finding many newer transformers that are rated for 24V are actually outputting more than 28-29V, which will damage the ZEN17.
Please follow the instructions found here to install the Edge driver for the ZEN17 Universal Relay.
With the driver installed, here's how you can add the Universal Relay to your system:
- Tap the plus icon in the home screen
- Tap Device
- Tap "Scan nearby" (in the corner of the screen)
- While the app says "Scanning...", click the Z-Wave button on the device 3 times very quickly (LED indicator will start flashing)
- The app will indicate when the device connects
- Tap Edit to rename the device, and tap Done to save the name
- Tap Done to complete the setup
* If you’re using an S2 hub, it will ask you to enter the DSK PIN or scan the QR code printed on the device.
If you would like to have each relay display as a separate device in your SmartThings hub to rename them and control them from your smart speaker, please follow these steps:
- Click on the 3 dots in the top right corner of the device view in the SmartThings app.
- Click on Settings.
- Scroll down to enable Create Child Devices so that a separate device is created for each relay.
- The new devices will be automatically created under "No room assigned". There's currently no way to assign a room to child devices but you can rename them and control them from your smart speaker now.
To change any other settings in the app: once the driver is installed and the device is included to your SmartThings network, click on the relay in your app and tap the 3 dots in the top right corner of the app. Then tap Settings. There you'll be able to customize your device.
