I still have my old Smart Hub or Main Repeater

 
  1. Sign-in to your Lutron App
  2. Delete all the devices associated to the Smart Hub or Main Repeater by going to
    • Devices
    • Click on a Device name
    • Click Edit Device
    • Select Delete Device 
    • Repeat for each device on the system
  3. Once all devices are deleted, Go to Settings>Edit Home>Remove System from Account

  4. Disconnect the old Smart Hub or Main Repeater from the network
  5. Plug-in the new hub and in the Lutron App select "Homeowner" and then "Get Started"
  6. Select "Create new account" and then you should be able to enter you old email address since it has been removed from your old hub.
  7. The app should then start the normal setup procedure

If a device (dimmer, switch, etc.) will not pair with the new Hub or Main Repeater, you may need to default that device.
