This page shows you how to make Z-Stick Gen5 a secondary controller to another gateway using Zensys Tool and a Vera Edge gateway and form part of the larger Z-Stick Gen5 user manual.


First, you will need to download the Zensys tool which can be found here: https://aeotec.freshdesk.com/helpdesk/attachments/6091420613, in other cases you can use your current software to put the Z-Stick Gen5/S2/Lite into Learn mode. But for this case, we will be using the Zensys tool to do this:


1) Make sure that your Z-Stick has been factory reset. In the Zensys Tool

  • Highlight NodeID 1 which should be the Z-Stick
  • Click on the X under the "Controllers" tab


2) Now put the Z-Stick into Learn Mode, and your Z-Stick should now be waiting to be included into a network
  • Highlight NodeID 1 (Static controller)
  • Click on the Thunderbolt

3) Now go to your gateway and put it into inclusion mode. As an example, the Vera gateway was used to pair the Z-Stick Gen5.


Your Z-Stick should now be included into your network as a secondary controller, and will populate all of the devices in your network.
