Editing Interfaces

An enabled Z-Wave interface has a red power icon and the buttons to edit or delete it are grayed out. To edit or delete an interface, click the red power icon and it will turn green.

  • image2021-7-6_16-6-21.png The edit icon will allow you to rename or change the communication port where HS4 will look for your interface. When moving a Z-Net to a new room permanently, it would be a good idea to rename it. It is not recommended to change the port of a working interface.

Changing Z-Wave Frequency

The HT-PI-G3, Z-NET-G3 and SmartStick+ G3 all allow for changing the frequency of the Z-Wave chip. 

  1. Click the Set Interface Region icon.
