4.2.3.1 Changing a dLAN device ID
You can add description text in the ID for a dLAN device or edit existing text at
any time. If the device is in the opened network in the "dLAN network" window,
open the context menu for the device by right-clicking on the respective device.
In the context menu, open the menu item Edit properties and enter or edit the
description there.
If the respective device is in the list of "Unused devices", do this by opening the
context menu for the device by right-clicking on the respective device. In the
context menu, open the menu item Modify device data and enter or edit the de-
scription.
In the device ID, dLAN AVpro manager does not show the security ID from a
device's label in the Security ID field, instead it shows the device's Device Access
Keys (DAK).
4.2.3.2 Deleting a dLAN device from the list of "Unused devices"
You can delete a device from the list of "Unused devices" (thus deleting it from
the database) by selecting the device with a right-click and clicking on Delete.
The device ID for the respective device is removed from the list of "Unused de-
vices" after you confirm the subsequent security prompt.
In order to delete a dLAN device that is part of a network, you first have to drag
this device back to the list
of "Unused devices" where you can then delete it.
4.2.3.3 Exporting "free devices"
In the Database menu you can export the dLAN devices in the list of "Unused
devices" as a text file (see above) by clicking on
Export free devices. You have
to specify a storage location and a name for this file to save it. You can adapt
this file as needed later on using a text editor to be able to add it to the database
of another dLAN AVpro manager.
