Your ZSE44 Temperature | Humidity Sensor can be added to Home Assistant in just a few simple steps! We recommend using the new JS Z-Wave integration for best results.

Here are the instructions to join the ZSE44 to Home Assistant:

1. Power the sensor up
2. In Home Assistant: click on Add a Z-Wave Device
3. Home Assistant will display the following message: "Your Z-Wave controller is now in inclusion mode. Follow the directions that came with your device to trigger pairing on the device." Click the Z-Wave button 3 times as quickly as possible (the LED indicator will start flashing)
4. Enter the SmartStart security PIN. The PIN is located under the QR code, printed on the inside of the sensor's battery cover
5. Home Assistant will confirm that the sensor was added. It will be immediately visible in your device list. Shortly (seconds to minutes), the entities should also be created. If they don't, click the Z-Wave button 4 times quickly to wake the sensor up so it can fully configure

If Home Assistant is having trouble recognizing the device: Begin the exclusion process first. This process assists with configuration and inclusion issues. Exclusion can be done even if the ZSE44 hasn't been included before. To exclude your device:

1. In Home Assistant: open Configuration > Integrations > Z-Wave JS > Configure
2. Click on Remove Node
3. Click on Start Exclusion
4. Click the Z-Wave button 3 times as quickly as possible (the LED indicator will start flashing)
5. Home Assistant will confirm that the device was removed. You should now be able to add it to your system

We've included some screenshots below showing how the sensor should display for you in Home Assistant:
