Possible Causes
Device not in inclusion mode, Z-Wave network at capacity, Incorrect frequency region, Previous inclusion not properly cleared.
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: No mains wiring changes are needed.
Steps to resolve inclusion issues:
- 1. Exclude first:
- Use the Fibaro controller to perform an exclusion on the thermostat, even if it was never included.
- 2. Factory reset:
- Reset the thermostat to factory defaults following the manual.
- 3. Bring controller close:
- Perform inclusion with the controller or a portable inclusion device within a few meters of the thermostat.
- 4. Check region/frequency:
- Ensure the thermostat's Z-Wave frequency matches your controller's region (e.g., EU vs US).
- 5. Clear network capacity:
- If the controller is near its device limit, remove unused nodes.
When to call a professional: For large networks or persistent inclusion problems, a Fibaro integrator can analyze controller logs and RF conditions.
