General Information
The Honeywell LYNX Touch control is a security enabled Z-Wave® device that is designed to automate devices in a home control
network. The control allows you to easily add and control multiple devices with the press of a button and supports Z-Wave Network
Wide Inclusion (NWI) mode.
Management of Z-Wave devices, which are also known as nodes or modules, includes two main operations; inclusion/exclusion and
control. This section describes how to Include (add) devices into your home control network, edit devices and Exclude (delete)
devices. Automation and Z-Wave functions are accessed via the LYNX Touch Automation icon, Z-Wave Device Management and Z-
Wave Advanced Tools screens. The devices can be controlled from the LYNX Touch control or a Mobile Device. Once the Z-Wave
devices have been Included (added) to the network they can be controlled either manually or through “Scenes” that are programmed
using your LYNX Touch control’s Automation features.
Check with your Installer to see which features are available with your system.
