Folders

Folders are used to organize tree items. They are typically used to contain a single type of item, such as all points on a device, all schedules, or all devices in a specific area.

Any type of item may be placed inside a folder, including other folders. On a system with many items it is important to keep them organized for ease of use. One organizational system might be something like:

But there are no built-in limitations on how items are organized.

Settings Tab

Label

Label is the name of the item as displayed in the Device Tree.

All items in the Device Tree are sorted alphabetically by label.

Group Settings Tab

The group settings are used to determine which user groups can see this item in the tree. The default setting is "Everyone". Unchecking "Allow Everyone" enables selecting individual groups.

If a user group is not allowed to see an item, that group will also not be able to see any items under it in the tree.

There are "Check All" and "Uncheck All" buttons in the upper-right corner to make major changes easier.

Group access permissions are for the tree only. If an item is placed on a graphic that a group can view, that group would still be able to access it.

Advanced Tab

Name

Name is used for advanced features. If left blank, it will be assigned automatically. It is recommended that the default value not be changed.

It can be up to 48 characters. Only A-Z, a-z, 0-9, period (.) and underscore (_) are allowed. Names are case sensitive.
