In this video, Michael from Alarm Grid shows you how to remove, or clear, a Z-Wave smart home automation device from a Honeywell Home PROA7PLUS Security System. The Honeywell Home PROA7PLUS and Resideo PROA7PLUSC both include a Honeywell Home PROWIFIZW Module inside, which provides Z-Wave Plus support and functionality. But the other ProSeries Panels, the Honeywell Home PROA7 and Resideo PROA7C, do not have the PROWIFIZW Module installed by default. For those systems, you must add a PROWIFI Module separately. But all four (4) systems follow the same process for the exclusion of Z-Wave devices once a PROWIFIZW is added.
When you remove a Z-Wave device from a Z-Wave controller, you are wiping out all residual Z-Wave network data for the device. This makes it possible to enroll the Z-Wave device with a new Z-Wave controller. Therefore, you will typically perform the exclusion process for any given Z-Wave device before you go and attempt to add it to the network. You can perform the exclusion process for any Z-Wave device at any time, even if it is not paired with a network at all. The Z-Wave controller should still give confirmation that a Z-Wave device was cleared.
Additionally, if the Z-Wave device you excluded from the network was paired with a Z-Wave controller at the time, then it will no longer work with that network. This is true whether the Z-Wave device was paired with the PROA7PLUS or another Z-Wave controller hub entirely. For the PROA7PLUS, the device will no longer show up in the enrolled devices list. For any other Z-Wave controller, the Z-Wave device will still be listed, but it will show trouble, as the controller won't be able to locate the device. If you want to continue using that device, you will need to re-add it to a Z-Wave network.
