Description

How to configure sensors for the input-workflow.


Basic

How the basic device config is structured.

Model

Device models are used to group devices of the same hardware-type.

model

Settings that are shared across all devices of this type are set for the model.

Those settings are inherited by the devices. A device can only be a member/child of one model!

Some settings can be defined on a model- and device-basis. If a setting is defined in both - the device config will be prioritized.

You always have to create the device-model first - before you can create devices of its type. This can be done on the site ‘Config - Input’ or whatever device-type you want to create (Input/Output/Connection). Just press the ‘Create’ button at the bottom of the site.

Device

After you created the device-model - you can create your devices.

Open the model-members section and press the ‘Create’ button shown in it:

device_create

Fill the form-data and press the ‘Save’ button.

After that you can add the device as a member of the model:

device_add

It should look like this when you’ve finished you configuration:

device_finished


Output

What are output devices

Output devices have some additional settings. Actors can be reversible - therefore you are able to set some ‘reverse-settings’.

Also you can see the status of your actors on the site ‘Config - Output’:
