Device Model
The Device Model page is used to create and manage standard device model definitions within the IoT platform. Device Models act as templates that define the structure and configuration of devices before they are deployed.
Using Device Models helps maintain consistency across devices that share similar configurations and data requirements.
Device Model List
The Device Model page displays all configured device models in a tabular format.
| Column | Description |
|---|---|
| Model Icon | Visual icon representing the device model. |
| Name | Name of the device model. |
| Description | Additional information about the device model. |
| Status | Indicates whether the device model is Active or Inactive. |
| Actions | Provides options to configure, edit, or delete the device model. |
Add Device Model
Click Add New to create a new device model.
Users can define:
- Device Model Name
- Model Icon
- Description
- Status
After entering the required information, click Save to create the device model.
Configure Data Points
The Configuration action allows users to associate Data Point Templates with a Device Model.
By configuring data points, users can define the parameters that devices of this model will collect and transmit.
Examples of data points include:
- Temperature
- Pressure
- Humidity
- Speed
- Voltage
- Current
The configured data points become available for devices that use the selected device model.
Edit Device Model
The Edit action allows users to modify an existing device model.
Users can update:
- Model Icon
- Name
- Description
- Status
After making changes, click Save to update the device model.
Delete Device Model
The Delete action allows users to remove a device model from the system.
Before deletion, a confirmation dialog is displayed to prevent accidental removal.
Status
Device Models can have the following statuses:
- Active – Available for device configuration and use.
- Inactive – Not available for new configurations.
Search and Refresh
The Device Model page provides:
- Search functionality to quickly locate device models.
- Refresh option to reload the latest device model information.
Benefits
The Device Model module helps users:
- Standardize device configurations.
- Reuse common data point definitions.
- Simplify device deployment.
- Improve consistency across connected devices.
- Reduce configuration effort for similar devices.
