Factory Resetting a Tuxedo Touch Keypad

In this video, Jorge shows users how to perform a factory reset on a Honeywell Tuxedo Touch Keypad. When you perform a factory reset on a Tuxedo, all device settings and configurations will be reset. Z-Wave devices will not be cleared, but their names will be reset. Rules and scenes will be cleared.

A factory reset is actually one of four types of resets that can be performed on a Tuxedo Touch Keypad. This type of reset is best performed if you are taking over the Tuxedo Touch Keypad from someone else and you want to start fresh with completely restored settings. A factory reset can also be performed as a last resort troubleshooting steps if there is something severely wrong with the system and nothing else seems to fix the problem.

Performing a factory reset is not something you should take lightly. The entire device will need to be reprogrammed, and you will basically be starting from scratch. If your Tuxedo Touch Keypad is configured exactly for your liking, then you will lose all your hard work in setting up the device. Any changes to the settings and configurations will be lost. You will need to reenter programming and configure the entire keypad from the beginning.

Keep in mind that resetting a Tuxedo Touch will not clear your Z-Wave devices. These peripherals will still remain enrolled with the keypad. But you will lose any device names, as well as any configured rules and scenes. If you want to reset the device's Z-Wave controller, then you should perform a Z-Wave factory reset instead. A Z-Wave factory reset follows a different process than a standard factory reset.

Before trying a total factory reset as a troubleshooting step, you might want to try performing a power cycle on the Tuxedo Touch Keypad. Many problems and issues can be fixed by simply powering down the keypad and then powering it back on.
