Reprogram or replace the device - WaveNet

If you have problems with a device, try the following before replacing it:

Reprogram the device

The flash symbol in the overview indicates a problem with your device. Try to reprogram the configuration on the same device. To do this, perform the replacement procedure as described (see RouterNodes and LockNodes) with the same IP address or chip ID of the device you want to reprogram. You transfer the configuration of the device you want to replace to the device that has that chip ID. If this is the same Chip ID, then the configuration is reprogrammed on the device.

Replace device

You can replace devices in WaveNet if a device is no longer to be used for the following reasons, for example:

  • Replacement
  • Vandalism
  • Theft
  • Defects
  1. Replacement RouterNode or replacement LockNode already installed at the final operating location.
  2. Replacement RouterNode can already be resolved via valid IP address/host names (determine/set IP address see Determining and setting the IP address)
  1. For reprogramming, use the IP address/chip ID of the replacement unit instead of the same IP address/chip ID.
  2. Proceed in the same way as when reprogramming a WaveNet configuration on a device (see RouterNodes und LockNodes).
  1. Device replaced.
