LZW200 in 4-way. Worked great for 4.5 years, my kid pressed SOMETHING and now the main switch doesn't work. Pressing buttons does nothing, including the Function button

The yellow light is on, bright when the light is off, dim when the light is on. The other slave switches still work fine, as does Z-Wave (thank god). But I need local control back at this switch.

The instructions say to hold down the Function button for 10-15 seconds. I’ve done that for 30 seconds, and nothing is happening. I can’t seem to get into programming mode.

Any advice? Thanks.

What switch do you have? Is it a second generation like the LZW30 or 31? I don’t think there is a LZW200.

It sounds like local control is disabled. For Gen 2 switches, try pressing config 8x. This will turn local control on and off. If the LED flashes green, then you have re-enabled local control. If the LED flashes red, then you just disabled local control in that wasn’t the problem.

If it’s not a Gen 2 then please post the proper model number. If you’ve had the switch 4 years then it probably is a Gen 2.

You should also be able to determine the local control status of that switch and change it from your hub.

Thanks. Looking more carefully, the switch says Red Series Z-Wave DSK, and the manual says it’s the LZW31-SN. (The LZW200 was a multipack set I bought originally way back when).

I just tried pressing the Config button 8 times and your intuition was correct, problem solved! Thanks so much. Lifesaver!
