After clearing the memory, you will need to re-enroll the Qolsys IQ Hardwire 16-F with the panel.

This will confirm that the memory has been cleared. You can also reconnect the backup battery at this time.

3. Re-enroll the module. Prior to reaching this step, any zones that were learned into the panel from the Qolsys Hardwire 16-F should have been deleted from panel programming.
