Use the following procedure to transfer
the Primary Controller role from
ThinkEssentials
®
to another controller.
Transferring the primary controller
role between controllers is sometimes
necessary or convenient when working
with your Z-Wave
®
network. For
example, to add a new Z-Wave
®
module
to a network where Thinkessentials®
is set-up as the primary controller and
is running on a desktop computer,
would be difficult since the desktop
computer is generally not very portable.
It would be much easier to temporarily
transfer the primary controller role from
Thinkessentials
®
on the desktop to a
portable controller, add the new Z-Wave
®
module with the portable controller and
then transfer the primary controller role
back to Thinkessentials
®
.
1. Switch to the SeTTINGS tab and click
on the TRANSFeR PRIMARY RoLe To
ANoTHeR CoNTRoLLeR link.
2. Put the target controller in JoIN
NeTWoRk, ReCeIVe CoNFIGURATIoN, or
RePLICATIoN ReCeIVe mode. (Please see
the User Manual or Instruction Manual
for the specific Z-Wave® controller being
programmed for detailed programming
information.)
NoTe: If the target controller is a
secondary remote in different network, it
will need to be reset before it will accept
the primary controller role transfer. See
the User Manual for the specific controller
being programmed for details.
NoTe: For your security, the USB
Z-Wave
®
Adapter must be within 3 feet of
the controller to be added.
NoTe: The process of transferring
the primary controller role to another
controller may delete all previous network
information on the target controller. See
the User Manual for the specific controller
being programmed for details.
