hypothetical disaster- replacing main repeater
I'm curious as to what would happen if a main processor was fried. Is it as simple as getting a new one and activating it and uploading the programming or would all of the devices on the system have to be factory reset and reactivated? I guess I'm curious where all the frequency data is stored - is it in the processor? The dimmers and keypads? The file itself or once everything is activated and running? This has always been kind of a mystery to me with all of Lutron's wireless products from Homeworks wireless to radio ra classic. I've seen systems function partially when someone accidentally unplugged a main processor so it seems that at least some of that addressing and data is stored in the dimmers and keypads also. If it's not proprietary information, it would be helpful to troubleshoot systems if I know what was going on behind the scenes.
Fortunately, I have not had this ever happen yet except for an auxiliary repeater on an older Processor 8 system, but this is the sort of thing that keeps me up at night so I'd like to be mentally ready.
