Z-Wave integration for Home Assistant allows you to observe and control connected Z-Wave devices. Z-Wave support requires a supported Z-Wave USB stick or module to be plugged into the host.

To add a Z-Wave device to your system, go to the Z-Wave panel in the Home Assistant frontend and click the Add Node button in the Z-Wave Network Management card. This will place the controller in inclusion mode, after which you should activate your device to be included by following the instructions provided with the device.
