| − | Hubitat Elevation™ is a Z-Wave Plus central static controller which may be included in any Z-Wave network to operate Z-Wave certified devices from other manufacturers in your home. Regardless of vendor, all AC mains powered nodes within the network will act as repeaters to increase reliability of the network.

| − | **About Z-Wave technology**
| |
| − | | |
| − | The Z-Wave protocol is a low powered wireless interoperable RF communications technology designed specifically for control, monitoring and status of residential and light commercial Internet of Things devices. It supports full mesh networking and may be used with or without a coordinator node (Hub).
| |
| − | Z-Wave operates in the sub-1GHz band and is impervious to interference from Wi-Fi and other wireless technologies in the 2.4 GHz range such as Bluetooth® and ZigBee.

| − | **Remove a Z-Wave device from the network**
| |
| − | | |
| − | Prior to adding devices to the Z-Wave network of your hub, it is required that you first **Exclude** the device from any previous networks is has joined. This may be accomplished by performing a Z-Wave Exclude to remove the device from the Z-Wave network of the controller it formerly joined. However, it is not required that you perform this step using the previous controller. If the previous controller is unavailable or it is not convenient to perform Z-Wave Exclusion using the former controller, a **General Exclusion** may be performed from the Hubitat Elevation™ hub.
