ISY instructions state: "Both devices have to be the same type of device in order for the new device to be displayed in the replace menu."

 

Are the subject devices "of the same type"?

A ToggleLinc can be Replaced with a SwitchLinc assuming both are Dimmer or both are Relay.  Add the SwitchLinc under a dummy device name.  Right click on ToggleLinc and select Replace ToggleLinc Dimmer/Relay with ....  A popup is displayed listing new devices that can replace ToggleLinc.   When complete the Admin Console will terminate as SwitchLinc device name will no longer exist.

Is there a reason as to why we cannot replace a SwitchLinc Dimmer with a SwitchLinc On/Off?

 

I had to replace a bad dimmer with a spare on/off and it will take hours re-doing all my scenes and programs for this particular switch.

The devices have to be the same 'type', dimmer for dimmer, relay for relay.  The Programs could be adjusting brightness levels, ramp rates, which are not possible replacing a dimmer with a relay.
