Revision A
sensor firmware image, all sensors associated with the gateway will be updated to
that same firmware version.
Note that whilst sensor firmware can be deleted from @ptitude Observer, that
deletion doesn’t affect the copy stored at the gateway and if a distribution of that
firmware is underway (staged), it will continue.
4.1.2 Sensor replacement or removal
A wireless sensor may need to be replaced if a fault occurs or when the battery is
reaching the end of its life.
At the physical machine, remove the old sensor and if still operating, decommission it
using the app. Scan for and select the sensor, the sensor status should show as
commissioned with the Decommission option available:

App Decommission button
The app Decommission process clears the association the sensor has with the
database location, mesh parameters and puts the sensor into flight mode. If it is
being replaced, now install and commission the replacement sensor as described in
sensor commissioning.
Finally, in @ptitude Observer clear the Hardware ID of the previous sensor from the
database. Where a replacement sensor has been installed, this leaves the sensor
‘position’ free and available for accepting data from the new sensor.
