Device Replacement

“Device Replacement” is a functionality that allows switching the faulty Wavelet device with another Wavelet device, without losing the continuous data flow.

That is, the data streams associated with the faulty device will start receiving data from the replacement (new) Wavelet device.

Note:  This process is specifically designed for instances where units need to be replaced with identical models, such as W4-V2 to W4-V2.
