How Do I Exclude My Yale Z-Wave Lock From My Honeywell Lyric?

You can exclude your Yale Z-Wave Lock from your Honeywell Lyric by putting the Lyric into its exclusion mode and then activating the lock's exclusion function. The lock's exclusion function is only accessible if it is already paired with a controller. The lock's Master Pin will be needed.

Yale Z-Wave Locks can be paired with pretty much any Z-Wave controller, including the Honeywell Lyric Alarm System. These devices can only be paired with one Z-Wave hub at any given time. If you want to us your lock with a different Z-Wave controller, then you must clear it from the network. Yale Z-Wave Locks are very smart, and they know whether or not they are paired with a network. You can normally only exclude a Yale Lock if it is already paired with a network. If, after attempting to exclude the lock you are still experiencing issues, you might try performing a factory default for the lock.

You will be required to provide the Master Pin for the lock during the exclusion process. This Master Pin is set during the initial set up process. If you have lost the Master Pin, then you will need to factory default the lock. For this FAQ, we will assume that you already know the Master Pin. We will also assume that the Yale Lock has already been paired with the Lyric Alarm System. Remember that the lock must be in close proximity to the Lyric when performing the exclusion.

Complete the following steps to exclude a Yale Z-Wave Lock from a Honeywell Lyric Controller:

1. Access Lyric exclusion mode. Start from the main screen of the Lyric. Choose Automation, followed by the down arrow, then Tools, then Exclude Devices. This will put the Lyric into an exclusion mode where you can exclude devices from the network.

2. Exclude the lock. Turn your attention to the Yale Lock. Press the touchpad to get the numbers to appear. You may need to press it a few times before the numbers show up. Once the numbers appear, enter the Master Pin that you set when first setting up the lock. Then press the Gear Icon in the bottom right. Next, press the 7 key. The digit 3 should appear indicating that the lock is in its exclusion mode. If you see the 1 key instead, then the lock is in its pairing mode, as it has not yet been paired with a network. Assuming that you see a 3, press the Gear Icon again to confirm. The lock should then appear on the Lyric screen, indicating that it has been cleared from the network.

If either the Lyric or the Lock exit their respective exclusion modes prematurely, you can simply press Exclude on the Lyric and/or the Gear Icon on the lock. This will put them back into their exclusion modes so that the process can be completed.

3. Return to home screen. Once you have successfully cleared the Yale Lock from the Lyric System, you can repeatedly press the return arrow in the upper-right corner of the Lyric until you are taken back to the home screen.

Note: In this FAQ, we assume that the Yale Z-Wave lock has been included with the Lyric Controller. However, if the lock has been paired with ANY Z-Wave controller, this same process can be followed to remove the previous Z-Wave network information. Once the Lyric shows that the lock has been excluded, it is ready to be included into the Lyric or any other Z-Wave controller.

Note: For some Yale Lock models, the # key is used instead of the Gear Icon.
