How Do I Exclude a Kwikset Z-Wave Lock from the Honeywell Lyric?

You can exclude a Kwikset Z-Wave Lock from the Honeywell Lyric by putting the Lyric into its Z-Wave exclusion mode and then pressing the inclusion/exclusion button on the lock. By clearing the Kwikset Lock from the network, you will then be able to pair it with a new Z-Wave network.

A great aspect about Kwikset Z-Wave Locks is that they usually have a simple inclusion/exclusion button that makes them easy to pair with a Z-Wave controller. To exclude, you simply put the Z-Wave hub into its exclusion mode and press the button on the lock. This button is often found underneath the lock's front cover, so you will likely need to remove the cover to access the button.

Remember, you do not necessarily need to have the Kwikset Z-Wave Lock paired with a Z-Wave network to perform the exclusion process. It is actually recommended to perform the exclusion process prior to pairing with a network. This will wipe any residual network information for the lock and make it easier to pair later on. The process for exclusion is exactly the same, regardless of whether the lock is currently paired with a Z-Wave network or not.

When excluding the lock, you should have it in close proximity to the Lyric System. Complete the following steps to exclude your Kwikset Z-Wave Lock from a Lyric Alarm System:

1. Find the enrollment button. The enrollment button on a Kwikset Z-Wave Lock is used for both inclusion and exclusion. It is usually found underneath the main cover, so you will need to remove that cover to access the button. The button is typically labeled A. Do not confuse the A button with the B button, as the B button is used for other tasks.

2. Access Lyric exclusion mode. On your Lyric System, choose Automation, then the down arrow, then Tools, then Exclude Devices. The Lyric will then enter into its exclusion mode.

3. Clear the lock. Press the A button on the Kwikset Lock, as mentioned in Step 1. The Lyric should recognize the lock and clear it from the network. You will get a notification on the Lyric System if the exclusion was successful.
