Select a configuration and apply to a device group

You can apply a device configuration to the Connect Sensor devices in a selected device group. Some device groups may have devices of more than one device model. In this situation, the configuration is applied to only those devices of the same device model specified for the configuration.

The configuration is applied the next time that the Connect Sensor wakes up and connects to Digi Axess, either at the scheduled wake time or if it is done manually using a magnet.

Note You can apply a configuration file from the Digi Axess Admin menu only to the Connect Sensor devices in the group. Configurations can be applied to a Z45 Controller from the device's web UI.

The list of configurations available includes the device configurations that have been backed up and saved, for the devices that are in a device group to which you have access, plus all of the default configurations that are provided with your Digi Axess account.

Note You can apply a configuration to a Connect Sensor device using this method or other methods. See Apply a configuration to a device or a device group: Overview.

  1. Access the Digi Axess Admin page. You must have Admin or Device User privileges to access this page.

  2. From the Device Configuration Management section in the Admin dashboard, click Device Configurations or View next to that label.

    As an alternative, you can click Device Configurations from the dashboard pane to the left of the page. The Device Configurations page displays a list of configurations that can be applied.

    The selected group is moved to the right side of the page and displays in a green banner in the Selected Device Group window.
