Defaulting A Yale Z-Wave Lock
In this video, Joe walks users through the process of performing a factory default on a Yale Z-Wave Lock. A few things will occur when you factory reset a Yale Z-Wave Lock. The Master PIN Code will be reset back to its default. Any added codes will be deleted. All lock Z-Wave settings will be reset.
A factory reset is typically performed when a user takes over the lock from someone else and they want to start fresh with default settings. By factory defaulting a Yale Z-Wave Lock, it will be as though the lock is fresh out of the factory. This way, the user can properly set up the lock to their liking. They will need to go through and adjust the Master PIN Code to a unique code that they can remember. They will also need to add the device to their Z-Wave network.
When a factory reset is performed, the lock's Master PIN Code is restored to its default of 12345678. This code is fairly easy for a potential intruder to guess. The user should change the code to something that is easy for them to remember, but also difficult for others to guess. Please note that any additional added codes will be deleted when a factory reset is performed. The user will need to go and add any additional codes back if necessary.
Factory resetting a Yale Lock will also remove it from the Z-Wave network. The user will need to go and add it back into their Z-Wave network. They may need to clear the lock from the network before they can pair it successfully. This can be done from the Z-Wave controller or hub. Put the controller or hub into its exclusion mode and activate the enrollment function on the lock to exclude. Then put the controller or hub into its inclusion mode and activate the lock's enrollment function to include. You may need to adjust the settings and configurations for the lock after doing this.
A user might also perform a factory reset as a way of troubleshooting the lock. This is typically only done if the lock is not working correctly. Most users will only perform a factory default for their Yale Z-Wave Lock as a last resort. This is because the lock will need to be reprogrammed from scratch, which is quite inconvenient. However, performing a factory default can be very effective in fixing various problems, and it may be the only way to restore the lock.
