Ready to pair your ZEN17 Universal Relay to Hubitat? Let's do it!
The Universal Relay is fully integrated with Hubitat as of platform version 2.2.6 so please make sure you update your hub if you're still running an earlier release. If you're using the Hubitat C-7 hub, for now you'll want to select Include without security and add the ZEN17 without security to successfully add the device. For previous versions of the Hubitat hub, you can simply follow the steps below to include your ZEN17 as S2 security is only supported on the C-7 hub.
You will have complete access to the Universal Relay's advanced settings right out of the box on Hubitat.
Use these steps to include your ZEN17 Universal Relay to Hubitat:
Smart Start Inclusion
On the Hubitat app:
- Open the Tools tab (wrench icon on the bottom)
- Scroll to the bottom, select Z-Wave
- This will take you to a screen where you can select either Smart Start or regular inclusion
- Select Smart Start
- This will take you to the smart start inclusion list. Devices will be displayed there that are in the process of inclusion through Smart Start.
- Select the QR symbol in the top right to open the camera for the DSK scan
- Power the device (important to do this AFTER QR scan)
- The device integration will begin. The window will appear asking you to name the device; click Save after naming
- Finishing inclusion may take a few minutes
If you have any issues with Smart Start Inclusion on Hubitat, please review this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sf-Fldjb0to. The steps should be the same whether you have a C-7 or C-8.
Manual Inclusion
- Open Hubitat in your Internet browser
- Go to Devices
- Click on Discover Devices in the top right corner
- Click on Z-Wave
- Click on Start Z-Wave Inclusion
- While the app says is in inclusion mode, click the Z-Wave button on the device 3 times as quickly as possible (LED indicator will start flashing to signal communication and remain on for 2 seconds to confirm inclusion)
- Rename and confirm the found device
NOTE: You’ll see 3 new on/off devices in your app:
- 1 master node to access and adjust advanced settings in
- 2 child devices for on/off control, one for each relay
If you're having inclusion issues with your ZEN17, you can try excluding the device using the steps shown here before pairing it again. The process will act as a soft reset and it can help with a variety of configuration issues.
