    duplicate address of additional device created during swap

    I followed the procedures in thread #1318123 to swap out a defective wall switch with a new one. Everything has been working fine; however a new device called "Tap-Added ToggleLinc V2 Relay 0" was created with the same address as the actual switch (see picture below) . I get an error during the startup of the plugin in HS3 shown below

    Starting up....

    12/9/2017 8:14:47 AM ~!~Insteon~!~Error loading Device 7 from insteon.ini file. It has a duplicate Insteon Address 45.8A.06 which is already registered to Device 6 Startup Complete, 1 errors detected, check the log for more information.

    Should I just delete this "Tap-Added ToggleLinc V2 Relay 0" device? Is it doing anything?

    please shutdown the plugin, backup your insteon.ini and homeseer.hsd files.

    then remove the second [device x] section with the duplicate insteon id from insteon.ini

    reduce the [config] numdevices= value by one

    save and restart plugin
