  1. Name: The default name of the unit (Z-NET PRO) is displayed. This is the name that displays in the system finder. If you’re installing more than 1 unit, we recommend changing this name to avoid confusion. To do so, enter a new name and click the Save button. Your new name will display in the system finder in a few minutes.

  2. Z-Wave Port: Use port 2001 when setting the network URL to connect to your smart home hub. Format: tcp://{IP Address}:{Port Number} | Example: tcp://192.168.1.25:2001

  3. Zigbee Port: Use port 2002 when setting the network URL to connect to your smart home hub. Format: tcp://{IP Address}:{Port Number} | Example: tcp://192.168.1.25:2002

Ethernet or WiFi?

We recommend using a wired Ethernet connection for your Z-NET PRO for the most reliable operation. If you can do this, skip down to the Ethernet Status section to obtain IP address and MAC address required to connect to your unit and to create an address reservation in your router.

If it’s not possible to use Ethernet, you may connect to your Z-NET PRO using WiFi. Follow the next steps to set up your WiFi connection.

Select WIFI Network

This section displays a list of available WiFi networks. If using WiFi, click the network you wish to use from this section and its attributes will be inserted in the Enter WIFI Configuration section below.

Setting an Address Reservation

An address reservation is a router setting that ensures a specific device always gets the same IP address on your network. It's assigned based on the device's MAC address. Use the instructions in your router’s manual to set an address reservation for your Z-NET PRO. This will ensure the unit maintains a reliable connection with your hub.
