Advice on Moving Z-Wave Devices from HomeSeer to HA

After hours of messing with the HomeSeer SmartStick I finally got most of my devices to show there values. Once everything showed, I was able to see a few issues, such as most devices being routed through a non-zwave+ power strip in my network closet. I ultimately decided I was going to just reassociate all my devices and order the new Zooz long range 800 controller stick.

When I add all exclude my devices from the older network and include them in the new network, is there a way I can prevent my devices from being routed through the non-zwave+ power strip?

My thoughts are to add all my zwave plus devices and then add the power strip. Would this accomplish what I’m wanting>
