    Rename a Node?

    Hi Everyone,
    Been using X-10 for over 20 years and I finally took the steps towards using Z Wave.
    I just bought a Z Wave Smartstick+ and a new deadbolt last week while we were doing home improvements.

    I have everything working correctly (loving the battery monitor and the ability to lock my door remotely) and just had a minor semantics question:
    When I open HS Touch the door deadbolt's location is listed as Node 2. I understand how the concept of nodes but is there any way to re-name the node to be "Front Door" instead of Node 2 in HS Touch?
    I looked at the device properties and I don't see where I could edit that setting.

    Thanks for looking

    For anyone reading this I stumbled onto the solution by accident.

    In the Tools - Setup section of HS, under the Custom tab I had the "Use Location 2" unchecked. Once I checked it, I could then open up the individual devices and add/change the floor (which was Node 2) into something that made more sense like "Front Door"
    After the changes were made, I unchecked the "Use Location 2" box and all is good in HS Touch now.
