Inclusion, Exclusion, Factory Reset Written Instructions

Please locate your device below to find instructions for including (pairing), excluding (removing) and factory resetting your Inovelli smart home product.

Note: In earlier firmware versions, if you enabled local protection, it prevented you from being able to do a factory reset. If the factory reset process is not working for you, you may want to try to disable local protection first, and then try the reset again. Red Series Instructions | Blue Series Instructions

Please note that for Red Series (Z-Wave) products, when you exclude (remove) your products, it will factory reset them. This does not apply for Blue Series (Zigbee) products.
