How do you guys go about adding a bunch of devices at once?
What I mean is, I have about 20 dimmer switches to add - if I add them all at once, I won’t know what is what when it comes time to name the switches. That is without testing each one. If I add them one at a time (add a switch then name it, rinse, repeat), that is a lot of back and forth.
Suggestions? If I keep track of the order I add the switches, will they display in the order they were added?
Thanks.[/quote]
Are you adding them from the VERA UI?
I have someone walk around and flip them on one by one and add a name while I install. I think to many people jump straight to talking around with their VERAlite rather then leaving i where it is, opening the UI and clicking on add a z-wave device.[/quote]
I do not actually have the unit yet, just trying to get process figured out in anticipation of getting things set up. I am not clear on what you mean in your last sentence. Are you saying to can add devices without bringing the unit to the device and including that way?[/quote]
Yes! but if you don’t even have the unit yet alot of things are gonna be confusing until you atleast put your hands on the unit. (Probley still be confused after your hands on it too, but atleast you have a better understanding)
Old info on it here.

EDIT: Since you also don’t even have a unit yet we don’t even know which one your getting. The New Vera Edge doesn’t even have batteries in it to carry around like the older Veralite did.[/quote]
Thanks for the info. I will be getting the Edge.
