Vivint smart home control panel8/11/2023 ![]() ![]() I did each device one at a time, not sure it matters, I deactivated my Vivint Sky Control Panel and uninstalled it and I’m still under their service for a few months too. Once that was completed they all connected to ST hub as they should have. I factory reset my locks and thermostats, added each one back to the Vivint panel and made sure the anti theft option was turned off, the panel automatically offers this option when I paired my devices, then removed from Vivint panel. You have to unpair from the Vivint panel first. Even with factory resets on the locks and thermostats. Here’s what not many know I guess, the Vivint panel has a antitheft setting and when it is activated on the door locks and thermostats it prevents them from completing the pairing process. I went through trial and error for two weeks before my Vivint Kwikset Locks and Element thermostats connected. ![]() ![]() See the Installation Guide Setup section. You will need to connect the device to your Z-Wave Network and specify your system’s equipment and settings. ![]() To confirm that you want to reset the device to factory defaults, press DOWN to highlight Reset, then press the SIDE button.Press DOWN to highlight Reset, then press the SIDE button.Press DOWN to highlight Installer, then press the SIDE button.From the Home screen, press and hold the SIDE button for three (3) seconds.Use this procedure only in the event that the network primaryĬontroller is missing or otherwise inoperable. Hope this helps I would like to hear your experience with the setup and behavior after inclusion into ST.įactory Reset Instructions for Element Thermostat: So I feel, instructions for adding ST to Vivint, should state that all devices that you absolutely want to remain on Vivint (such as security related, locks, motion sensors etc) should be added to vivint panel before adding the ST hub to as the last node added to Vivint, and the rest of the z-wave devices to should be added to ST. So I removed all nodes 4 onward from Vivint and added them to ST and could see all of them appear on Vivint except my mini plugs (Darn it!). I have done this process two times now and find that when adding devices back to the Vivint panel, only Node 3 device is copied by ST and node 4 onward are not. Since then I have reset the ST hub, excluded all devices from the Vivint panel and added the ST hub as the first Zwave device to the Vivint panel i.e Node 2. The elements thermostats copied over again as CT100 Thermostats which I could rename. All except for one mini plug (which now I think is malfunctioning anyway). Interestingly enough, when I first joined the ST hub to the Vivint Panel, I added as a node (not as a controller, because it would not find it).Ĭontrary to instructions I have seen on this forum, and the ST hub quickly started showing all devices already on the vivint panel with existing nodes and devices were readily accepting commands from the ST app. The Vivint panel copies the node added to the ST hub and shows also as CT100, however changes from the panel are readily accepted. It seems to work but commands from the ST app take a long time to relay. The thermostat is detected as a CT100 Thermostat and not CT200 as it should be. Next, to add the thermostat to ST, start the add things routine on the ST classic app and now on the element panel you can select connect in the network sub menu. Now if you don’t have the panel you may need to reset the thermostat, instructions at the end of this post. Select network on the menu and select disconnect. This is done by going to the installer menu 2203 pin after pressing the software version on the Vivint panel, and menu on the element thermostat can be accessed by pressing the button on side for a few seconds (I felt more than 3 but instructions state 3), keep it pressed and the menu will pop up. To remove the thermostats from the Vivint panel, I ran the remove node on the Vivint panel and removed my thermostats. I have been trying the for the last day, cant seem to get ST to copy the ZWave nodes from Vivint, after following instructions found on this site. ![]()
