ingeborgdot Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 I have never had to replace a KPL before but have to now. What is the proper procedure so I can keep all of my settings from the old one? What are some things I will need to do if I have the old one in scenes? Where can I find a tutorial on this? Thanks.

Teken Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 Add the new KPL to the system than right mouse click and use the replace with. The new KPL should be listed as one of the available option keeping in mind it must be the same type: Dimmer vs Relay. Once the system has successfully replaced the KPL it will delete the *New* KPL and replace it with the existing KPL name. Link to comment
ingeborgdot Posted February 12, 2017 Author Share Posted February 12, 2017 What if I have the old one in scenes in the main listing? Do I have to name the new one first? Link to comment
stusviews Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 Do not rename the newly added device. Once the replacement is completed, the new device will have the name of the replaced device and will also be correctly added to scenes and programs. The ISY will shut down, you'll need to restart and wait until the ISY is not busy (look at the lower left corner). The only indication that the replacement occurred will be the new device's Insteon ID. The old device should be removed from any folder it's in before you can use the replace function.

ingeborgdot Posted February 12, 2017 Author Share Posted February 12, 2017 So when you say folder, do you mean scenes? Is that considered a folder? Link to comment
Teken Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 No, only if the main device is (IN) a folder. A device in a scene is not considered in a folder. ========================= The highest calling in life is to serve ones country faithfully - Teach others what can be.
