Before hitting next we will prepare the Leviton device to be paired with the Samsung hub.

  • While not always necessary you can ensure the Leviton device is fully defaulted
    • Hold the top of the paddle for a total of 14 seconds.
      • After the first 7 seconds the LED turns amber
      • The Locator LED will quickly flash red/amber after 14 seconds
      • Release the the top of the paddle and the device will reset

 

Before hitting Next place the Leviton device into include mode:

  • Start with the devices closest to the hub and work your way outward
    • Enroll only one device at a time
  • To enter programming mode, hold the top of the paddle (or button) for 7 seconds.
    • The status light will turn amber, release and the status light will blink.
  • Tap the top of the paddle (or button) 1 time. The status light will quickly flash green.
  • Your Leviton Z-Wave device is now ready to learn into the Z-Wave network.

Upon successful addition to network the status light will turn on and then flash green 4 times. If it was not successfully added to the network, the status light will flash red 4 times.  In most cases if the device does not learn it is too far from another Z-Wave powered (non-battery) device or the Samsung hub

Please note that Samsung began adding a message when learning any device that does not support S2 security.
