Honeywell Home PROA7PLUS: Add a Z Wave Device

In this video, Michael from Alarm Grid shows you how to add a new Z-Wave device to a Honeywell Home PROA7PLUS Alarm System. This process may also be referred to as pairing or enrolling a Z-Wave device. The Honeywell Home PROA7PLUS has a PROWIFIZW module installed inside so that it can readily support Z-Wave devices. The same is also true for the Resideo PROA7PLUSC. But the other ProSeries Panels, which are the PROA7 and PROA7C, do not have the PROWIFIZW installed by default, and you must add it to one of those system is you want to use it for Z-Wave automation and smart home control. All four (4) ProSeries Panels follow the same general process for adding and deleting Z-Wave devices.

After you pair a Z-Wave device with a PROA7PLUS, you will be able to control that device from the main panel, as well as from any PROWLTOUCH or PROWLTOUCHC Keypads that have been added. Additionally, if the system is monitored with a plan that includes automation, then you will also be able to operate paired Z-Wave devices remotely from Total Connect 2.0. This can be done using a compatible web browser or a mobile app on your phone. Total connect 2.0 also allows you to create smart scene automations so that your paired Z-Wave devices can activate automatically based on a set schedule and/or with predetermined system events.

All sorts of Z-Wave devices can be paired with a PROA7PLUS or othe ProSeries Panel with a PROWIFIZW installed. Examples of Z-Wave devices you might use with the PROA7PLUS include smart lights, door locks, smart thermostats, emergency water valves, and even smart garage door controllers. It is recommended that you first clear a new Z-Wave device from a Z-Wave network before adding it in. That way, you can be sure that no residual Z-Wave network data remains inside the sensor, which is very important for ensuring successful device enrollment.
