Troubleshooting


Having issues pairing your device?

  • Move your Sensor within 4 - 10 ft of your Hubitat Z-Wave network.
  • Remove power from TriSensor 8 for 1 minute, then power it up again.
  • Try factory resetting or removing your TriSensor 8.
    • Remove / Factory Reset first in case the device is paired to Hubitat otherwise, it will leave a phantom device in your network that will be difficult to remove.
    • Perform a manual factory reset - only do this if you are not able to perform the removal steps above.
      1. Press and hold the Action Button for 12+ seconds, we recommend holding it longer than 12 seconds just in case. Once you release the button, the LED will flash red/green upon a successful manual factory reset.
