The ZEN51 Dry Contact Relay is officially integrated with Hubitat, which allows for easy pairing without extra setup!

Ensure the platform is utilizing Version 2.3 or higher.

 

The ZEN51 as a default shows as "device" in the Hubitat user interface.You will need to manually change the device type to "Generic Z-Wave Plus Switch" for the device to show up as an On/Off switch.

 

Here are the steps for including the ZEN51 Dry Contact Relay to Hubitat:

 

Smart Start Inclusion

On the Hubitat app:

  1. Open the Tools tab (wrench icon on the bottom)
  2. Scroll to the bottom, select Z-Wave
  3. This will take you to a screen where you can select either Smart Start or regular inclusion
  4. Select Smart Start
  5. 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.
  6. Select the QR symbol in the top right to open the camera for the DSK scan
  7. Power the device (important to do this AFTER QR scan)
  8. The device integration will begin. The window will appear asking you to name the device; click Save after naming
  9. 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

  1. Open Hubitat in your Internet browser

  2. Go to Devices

  3. Click on Discover Devices in the top right corner

  4. Click on Z-Wave

  5. Click on Start Z-Wave Inclusion

  6. While the app says it is in inclusion mode, click the Z-Wave button on the relay 3 times as quickly as possible (the LED indicator will start flashing). Alternatively, if the relay is already installed, you can simply toggle the external switch connected to ZEN51 very quickly from off to on, so: "up-down, up-down, up-down."

  7. If you're using a hub that supports S2 security, it may ask you to enter the PIN. The PIN is located on the back of the relay, next to the Z-Wave Plus logo.

  8. Rename and confirm the found device

If the relay is having problems connecting to Hubitat, try the exclusion process first. It will help the ZEN51 Relay configure properly, even if it never connected to the hub:

 

  1. Open Hubitat in your Internet browser

  2. Go to Devices

  3. Click on Discover Devices in the top right corner

  4. Click on Z-Wave

  5. Click on Start Z-Wave Exclusion

  6. While the device is searching for a device, click the Z-Wave button on the relay 3 times as quickly as possible. Alternatively, if the relay is already installed, you can simply toggle the external switch connected to ZEN51 very quickly from off to on, so: "up-down, up-down, up-down."

  7. The app will indicate when the device is successfully excluded.
