Just bought two Fibaro smoke detectors. Tried to connect the first one, didn’t work first time. Tried second time then it says “status, already added”. But I don’t see it in my devices. Tried the second detector, no problem. Restarted the Homey, reinstalled the Fibaro app, no result. I only see one smoke detector. Any way to make it forget the "already added " one, so I can try to reinstall it. This seems another issue then previous with Fibaro smoke det. Thanks, Pascal ---

Go to [developer.athom.com](http://developer.athom.com), there you can uninstall the z-wave device that was (probably) added incorrectly. ---

If you’re not on 2.0 yet, you can do the same from the desktop app. Go to settings / zwave and click on “remove a device”. Then activate the device and it will be removed. ---

I did it yesterday, you can remove the device in the settings, zwave, remove a zwave device. Then press the button on the smoke alarm 3 times and the device will be removed. Then add the device again. I found that adding the device close to the homey gave best results ![Screenshot_20190118-130311_Homey](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/2X/9/9781f2c9ffcc40704894e05927faeeadb5ed0711.jpeg) ---

The proposed solutions did not work, because Homey did not show the detector. So couldn’t remove it. But still when trying to couple, it said already added. So what I did, luckily I didn’t have much devices coupled yet. Reset my Homey to factory settings. Did the same for the Fibaro detectors. Then added them again one by one and it worked. ---

Too bad you did that, wasn’t necessary. When a device is added incompletely/incorrectly it isn’t visible but it’s still paired to your Homey. If this happens, you have to do the above procedure (see Herman\_Andersen’s screenshot). You select ‘Verwijderd een z-wave apparaat’ / ‘Remove any z-wave device’. It will then tell you to put your device in exclusion mode. You triple-click the button on the device and it will be removed from Homey. Good thing you didn’t have a lot of devices yet, but if this happens again in the future (big chance, if you are going to add more devices) you probably don’t want to do a full reset of Homey 😉 ---
