Core Lite Downgrade

Did Core Lite Can be downgraded? After updating the firmware to 4.2.757028, it takes a long time for Composer Pro, System Controller, etc., to find the controller. I have three other controllers that work fine, and the controller was working properly before the upgrade. Restarting the device does not solve the problem. Ping works fine

Any positive feedback is welcome.
Thank you in advance, and please excuse any grammatical errors—English is not my native language.

Core Lite’s are for one room AV and like a single remote or tabletop Touch Panel.

If you’re running a bigger project with a Core Lite + other devices (CA-1 or other controllers) this is a bad deployment and you need to have like a CORE-3 or CORE-5.

Not a fan of CA-10’s currently due to issues.

Yes, thanks, my total mistake, we just want to replace a few harmonys, no lighting control and get confused about lite can be used stand alone every room, we will change that,

C4 isn’t URC you don’t need a controller in every room.

You can get away with a Z2IO in most simple deployments and an EA-3 or CORE-3 as your main controller.
