To ensure that a device is visible in the application, it must first be assigned to a room. This process involves creating the room within the website's interface and then associating the device with that specific room. By assigning devices to rooms, users can organize and categorize their devices effectively, making it easier to manage and control them through the application. Additionally, creating rooms allows users to customize their user experience by arranging devices according to their location or function within their home or building. Overall, assigning devices to rooms enhances the usability and accessibility of the application, providing users with a streamlined and organized interface for controlling their connected devices.
Wireless System
Rooms and devices added via the INELS mobile application on wireless Gateways are automatically integrated into the system.
This automated process simplifies setup and ensures that newly added rooms and devices are immediately accessible within the system.
BUS System
In contrast, for the BUS system, BUS units must be added manually.
This involves a manual configuration process where users input the necessary details and settings for each BUS unit.
Manual addition is necessary because of the different nature of the BUS system compared to the wireless system, requiring more detailed configuration and setup procedures.
