Ecolink Door/Window Contact Sensor

EcoLink Door/Window Z-Wave Contact Sensor SZ4F-6351E ZW_DOOR1_PIC

Currently migrating from an old C4 hub and in case anyone else has this same door/window sensor and can't figure out how to exclude/include it. I figured out it seems to actually be a Vision Security ZD2102. Here are links to the product page and manual. Plus a screenshot of the pertinent manual page.

@jrobertson50 @aaiyar

The manual you've attached is for the Z-Wave+ version of this contact sensor, while from the model numbers in your post, it appears that you have the original Z-Wave version.

The only way to exclude the Z-Wave version is what I described to @jrobertson50.

  1. Remove the battery from the Sensor.
  2. Leave the battery out for at least ten (10) seconds.
  3. Put the hub into exclusion mode.
  4. Reinstall the battery into the Sensor.

And it is best to do this as close to the hub as possible. It is really helpful if you use a secondary controller - like a Aeon Labs Minimote to do the exclusion.

I'm going to have to disagree with you. I don't know what to tell you other than my sensor has the same sticker markings as what @jrobertson50 reported was on his sensor and is why Google led me to his post. My sensor is nearly 10 years old (much older than the 800 series version), it is detected as ZD2102, it reports as basic Z-Wave, not Z-Wave Plus, and the process in that document is what worked with it. Not the one you've provided.

Unless you have first hand, conflicting experience with a sensor with the same markings, I think you are just mistaken.

Edit to add, it worked fine quite far away from the hub as well.

I do - my sensors were Ecolink ZWave sensors. I think the Ecolink part number was DMZWAVE1. And the instructions I used were from the insert that came with the sensor. I no longer have those sensors, but did find the same instructions online.

The PDF linked from that github shows a very different looking sensor.

Mine looks EXACTLY like this -

Including the little screw on the bottom of the sensor to hold the case together.
