Bunch of new switches, none found to add?

I installed a Zooz switch ages ago, then added it to hubitat fine. Recently, I did the same with another and all was well.

This morning an electrician added about 10 more for me. They’re all powered on and physically working, but when I go to Hubitat to add not a single one is found?

Did you put the switches in inclusion mode?

Might also suggest that if you have indeed put the switch into Inclusion mode and they still are not found, you first do a general exclusion on each switch, wait 30 seconds and then again put it into inclusion mode and attempt to join it to Hubitat.

I feel that Exclusion before Inclusion is a method that helps to prevent partially added devices (aka Ghosts) because the result of an Exclusion is a message that a device was Excluded. That tells you that the hub and that device CAN communicate and complete an operation. Said another way, if a device cannot Exclude, it can never Include successfully, and has a significant chance of creating a Ghost. You don't really want to learn the ghost busting method. :smiley: So always Exclude first is my advice.
