I've read all the threads in here about how to add a Kiwkset lock and to get the security class loaded. Nada!
I installed the lock at the garage door (which is about 3' from two Linear z-wave switches) and brought the aeon lab z-stick and excluded the node, then included it. Hooked it up to the computer and tried to import the node info and all that comes up is a device "Black and Decker Entry Control Node XX". So I try to rescan it, nada.
I then tried using the android Z-Tool+ app, to include the node. Nada.
Then I removed the brains of the lock and brought it down to my HS3 PC and placed it 6" away from the z-stick and tried to add the node, same thing it would add the device "Black and Decker Entry Control Node XX". I then try to rescan and it still can't get the security class info.
I tried to do a factory reset on the lock and try to add the node via HS3 with it being 6" away...nothing.
The only thing I didn't try was to eliminate polling. I have about 25 Z-wave devices set to poll every 2 minutes and XX seconds. Now do I have to go through every single one and remove polling, then try to add the lock and if it does work then have to go back and set the polling time for all the nodes again? Is there an easier way to disable polling of all z-wave devices?
The crazy part is that I already have this exact same lock for our front door that I added (although I do remember it being a bit tricky) back in December of last year. But adding this new one just seems to be impossible.
I then put the lock back in the garage door at around midnight last night and went to bed. I just rescanned it now and this is what comes up in the log:
I have removed and added this node almost 10 times last night and it just doesn't want to pass the security info over to Homeseer. I am running the Aeon Labs Z-Stick Series 2 with latest firmware (as of last night), HS3 Pro Edition 3.0.0.205 and Z-Wave 3.0.1.30 plugin.
Any idea?

I then took the card out and put it into the garage door lock and could control it beside the computer! I then installed the garage door lock and tried to optimize it, it wouldn't take...it was around 1am at that point. Z-health runs at 2-5am and so I figured it'd be fine by morning. Sure enough I optimized the entire network and the lock was functional. What an absolute headache, not sure what I would have done if I didn't have that second kwikset lock. Just an update if anyone else has this problem, try and swap the z-wave card to a known working lock. Don't know why this fixed it, but it did. Oh and both had brand new batteries, so that wasn't a factor causing the problem.
