Editing Device Details

  1. Go to Networks Explorer .

  2. Select view network from the row of the network that the device belongs to.

  3. Select Edit Device (from the row of the device that you want to edit), which makes an Edit [Device Name] Details window appear.

  4. Edit the Device Name, Model Name, Vendor Name, and/or Description.

    Note: If the device is a Modbus device, you can also set a Read/Write Delay (ms).

    Note: Point Read Batch (Count) defines how many points to read at once during a single connection to a Modbus device. The default is 4. Increasing Point Read Batch (Count) decreases the amount of connections made to the Modbus device, which may prevent it from locking up. (If you set Point Read Batch (Count) to the amount of points needing read, the KMC Commander gateway will only make one connection to the device.) However, depending on the KMC Commander gateway's connection speed, increasing Point Read Batch (Count) may cause it to time out.

  5. Select Save.

    Note: Later selecting Refresh Device Details for the device could cause the changes to be overwritten.
