Swapping lighting devices

Two lighting devices can swap their geometric position and certain data. All accessories move with their associated device.

Most of the device data moves automatically with the lighting device to its new location. Exceptions are the Unit Number and Position values, which never move with the device. You have the option to move the Circuit Name, Circuit Number, Dimmer, and Universe/Address values or keep the devices' original data.

To swap two lighting devices:

Select the devices; nothing else can be selected.

Select the command; the Swap Lighting Devices dialog box opens.

Pressing the Shift key while selecting the command either suppresses or displays the dialog box, depending on the option selected for Shift+click behavior the last time you used the dialog box.
