Question
knuth 28
I have experienced this with several third-party devices, but I will use a HeatIt 32A relay as my example. I needed to soft reconfigure this device today, expecting device numbers etc. to remain unchanged. The result, however, was puzzling: The general structure of master + slave devices changed! This device has no template implemented, but I expected the end-points to remain where they were. The reconfiguration was reported as successful by the HC2, but the results were suprising.
Here is a summary of what I experienced:
Tree before re-configuration (685 is the master device number):
685 -----------
685.0 On/off Device ID 686
685.0.1 Amperes Device ID 687
685.1 On/off 688
685.1.1 Amperes 689
685.2 multichannel 690
685.2.1 Temperature 1 691
685.3 multichannel 692
685.3.1 Temperature 2 693
685.4 Flooding 694
... and here is the same device after a "successful" soft reconfiguration (scroll to see the whole list):

This is not what is supposed to happen with a SOFT reconfigure. Both structure and id numbers should remain unchanged.
I have experienced the same thing with HeatIt thermostats. A soft reconfigure changes the structure, naming and some device id's, making a soft reconfigure a risky operation. What else can I do? A hard reconfigure, losing all device ID's? Keep trying a soft reconfig?
