Device list view

“Guide.”

Main features:

  • Device filtering
  • Device switch on/off
  • Device further customization via the Menu

The Device list view dashboard speaks for its name. It brings you a quick overview of all devices listed in the table-view with further possibilities of modification. It is also important to say, that only devices allocated to the group you are working with will be shown. Therefore, keep this in mind in case you are being part of other groups as well.

Filtering

In the case of having hundreds of devices in a group, it might be harder to find a concrete device. Then you use the filtering options which are based on certain criteria like ID, Name, Tags, Manufacturer, and Device type. Simply fill any of these fields and hit the search button. The outcome will be either your concrete device or a filtered group of devices based on your input.

Device switch on/off

Via this dashboard, you can also quickly switch on/off your devices. By switching off we are talking about “Suspending the message processing of certain device”. The message processing can be reactivated anytime you like by one clicking the button “Active”.

Device Menu

Each device has its own further options in the menu that can be modified accordingly to your needs. It does not only offers customization but also shows useful historical data like Data details or Connectivity subscriptions. More details about each menu item down below in this section (Items like Remove device and Documentation are left out as they speak for themselves).
