The move to a new hub has not started as smoothly as I would have liked. I'd thought (mistakingly) that a big company like GE would have its stuff together and the process of unregistering and reregistering their device would be easy and straightforward. If you're scouring the web looking for a reset procedure for the GE 127221 or 12724, here's what I did, though you may want to omit several of these steps:
1. Unregister the "light" from Wink by clicking "Remove this Light" from the edit menu in the Lights panel.
2 Use the "factory reset" procedure I found while also scouring the web. Pull the air-gap tab, replace the air-gap tab, and press up ten times on the toggle. Try the other reset procedure I found (toggle up three times followed by down three times) just for good measure.
3. Attempt to discover the "new" switch on Hubitat using Z-Wave Inclusion Mode and toggling the light on.
4. Congratulate yourself after the Hubitat shows the following and assuming the switch will soon be usable on the new platform.
5. Wait an excruciatingly long time for it to initialize.
5. Try exclusion / inclusion several more times only to reenter the "Initializing" loop.
6. Switch browsers. Rediscover. Keep waiting.
7. Read forum posts and keep waiting.
8. Contact Jasco customer service and discover that community support is only available for Hubitat.
9. Learn there is no way to factory reset the Jasco 127221 and 127224 switches and that general exclusion is the only way to have it forget its previous associations. Really? So you can safely skip step 2 if you're still following my procedure... sorry.
10. Upgrade Hubitat from 2.6.112 to 2.6.113
11. Repeat Step 3
I don't know if it was the software update, several reboots, repairing Z-Wave on the hub or Saturn's alignment with Ceres, but after that steps 1 and 3 seem to be working for all of my switches.
