Warning!
Resetting the Hubitat Elevation® hub to factory default values will delete all installed device connections, apps and user code from the hub. All devices connected to your hub will have to be reset or excluded before they can be re- connected. If this controller is the primary Z-Wave controller for your network, resetting it will result in the nodes in your network being orphaned and it will be necessary after the reset to exclude and re-include all of the nodes in the network. If this controller is being used as a secondary Z-Wave controller in the network, use this procedure to reset this controller only in the event that
the network primary controller is missing or otherwise inoperable.
1. Choose the Z-Wave Details button from your Hubitat Web Interface home page, or from the kabob menu at the top right.
2. If the device is marked FAILED in the Device ID column of the Radilo Details page, a Replace button will be available. Selecting this button will initiate Inclusion Mode so the user may add a new device or the previously joined device.

The device DSK is crossreferenced against the provisioning list and the device is included if authenticated. Within 10 minutes, the device will be automatically added to the hub.
6. Tap the trashcan icon to remove a device from the provisioning list. Removing an item from the SmartStart provisioning list does not remove it from the hub. You must also follow the manufacturer instructions to manually exclude the device or factory reset it, so it will no longer be part of the Z-Wave network.
Keeping devices in the provisioning list allows them to be factory reset or excluded, and they will automatically be included in the Z-Wave network again, as long as they have power.
NOTE: Any device that has been removed from the provisioning list, but has not been factory reset or excluded from the Z-Wave network, will be automatically included again if it has power, and it will repopulate the provisioning list showing the Included status.
