7.6. Assigning Sensors to Groups
Figure 74: Group Sensors Screen
On the Group Sensors screen, Loggers are assigned to groups. The same sensor can be
assigned to multiple groups.
After the configuration of the sensors, the next step is to group them by pressing Group
Sensors. The Group Sensors screen displays a scrollable listing of existing groups, as well as
the New Group button.
As long there is no group defined, the Default Group button automatically generates groups
for sensors with the same measured variable, like temperature and pressure.
To assign sensors to groups:
Select individual sensors to select them for the group. These sensors now appear deep
blue with an orange checkbox.
Press the New Group button, and the Group Name textbox appears on the screen. The
Group Name textbox accepts characters that can be upper and lower case, numeric, special
characters like hyphen, underscore, slashes (forward and backward) and, blanks. Enter a
name and toggle the Save button to save the group.
This screen also offers the following options:
• Delete - permits deletion of a group of sensors
• Move Sensors - permits moving sensors to another sensor group (specified in drop-
down list)
• Customized Header for each group: The group specific header fields, Asset ID
prepopulates from the Asset, and the SOP number field prepopulates from the
Define setup screen. The header can be customized for each group. Any new
information needs to be saved using the Save button before switching to another
group.
• Add Sensors - add further sensors to a group
• A Wiring Overlay – accessible via the Book icon - enables wiring overlay
configuration.
