Apply a configuration file to a Connect Sensor from the Device Summary page

You can apply a selected device configuration to a Connect Sensor from the device's Device Summary page. The update happens during 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.

The device configurations are created from a saved back up of a configuration file from a device. See Back up a Connect Sensor configuration.
