Select one device and apply a configuration

You can apply a device configuration to one selected Connect Sensor device in a device group from the Device Groups page. This feature is useful if you have a new device in a group or if the configuration for one device is different from the others in the device group.

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 Connect Sensor devices. 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.
