Replace Broken Device

[flemingmike]

hi, i think i saw instructions once on how to replace a defective device inside isy. i have an inline module and a kpl that i need to replace. they are apart of alot of scenes and programs. is there a way to do this without readding one by one?

 

thanks!

Add the new devices under device names that do not conflict with existing device names. The new device entry will be deleted by the Replace process.

 

Right click on the defective device node and select Replace xxxx with .....

Select the replacement device. The old device Insteon address will not be communicated with so the old device can be removed, physically replaced with the new device. The Replace xxxx with will update all Scene links along with Program references. When complete the old device name will still be there and contain the Insteon address of the new device. The new device name will be deleted.

If they are used in any RF devices like a RemoteLinc it will have to be woken up.

I believe the replace feature reminds you to wake them up.
