Summary: |
This article describes how to create and configure data groups to group data from channels mapped to sensors that monitor the same piece of equipment into one data event. |
Create and configure data groups to group data from channels mapped to sensors that monitor the same piece of equipment into one data event.
For more information on data groups, refer to the Data Groups topic. If you are seeking to add endpoints on a wireless device, refer to the Adding Wireless Gateways and Endpoints topic.
Click the Configuration pull-down (
) and select Devices.Double-click a device to navigate to the device's configuration page.
In the Equipment Mapping tab, click the Add/Remove button and then click Add to display the Select Location dialog box.
Select the top-level asset for the data group. This will likely be an equipment asset.
Click Select, then OK.
Select a channel in the Channels section and click Select Data Group.
-
In the Select Data Group dialog box, select the data group you just created in the Data Group listbox.
Click OK to assign the channel to that data group.
To learn how to map channels on your device to sensor-level assets in your data group, refer to the Mapping Device Channels and Data Groups topic.
Learn what data groups are and when they may be useful.
When you configure a device in InsightCM, you assign the device channels to one or more data groups. A data group is a set of channels mapped to sensors that monitor the same piece of equipment. Data groups are useful in situations where a single device monitors more than one piece of equipment.
Assigning the channels monitoring each piece of equipment to different data groups allows you to configure unique behavior for each group of channels even if all of the channels belong to the same device.
