Reuse Feeder ID

I have a number of feeders. Unfortunately, one of the sites was sold and I had to take down the feeder earlier this year. The feeder ID disappeared from my status page several months later.

I have now found another site and was wondering if I could just put the same hardware/software up with no changes (ie. not change the feeder ID).

Just change the location on the stats page once it is active again.
Then restart the unit.

The 32-character feeder ID

xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx

is preserved and is reuseable even after long dis-use.

 

However the Site number

20220925_143913

is lost after 30 days of dis-use, and a new Site number is allocated for the old feeder ID.

Yes you can.
Do you have a record of the feeder ID?

Excellent!!! I was hoping I could do this without a lot of hassle.

Thank you for your responses.
