I had a bunch of switchlinc dimmers die on me in a power outage. I've done the hard reset and they did not come back. I need to change them all out. What is the easiest way to swap out the device and reprogram all the links.

I used Insteon Explorer for the first one, however, when I change the address for the device all the links did not update.

There is a column in the Insteon Explorer where you can type the new address and have everything change over. As I'm not home now, I can't recall the exact column name.

I believe the column Tony is referring to is "Replace Address". Be sure the Clear Failed column is not shaded red if there was communication problems with the old address.

Thanks. I changed the column titled "Address" which is right next to it.... didn't even notice the other column. All the "Address" column did was change it for the device page and all the links had to be redone. I thought I had read about a way to change the address but couldn't find anything on it. I'll give the "Replace Address" a try.
