How to Find and Delete Orphan Nodes

Sometimes in the processes of adding or removing devices or points and creating cards, you end up with:

  • devices you are no longer using that have lost a network reference

  • points you are no longer using that have lost a device reference

Collectively these devices and points are called orphan nodes.

To find and delete orphan nodes:

  1. Go to Networks , then Orphan Nodes.

  2. From the option buttons, choose either Devices or Points.

  3. Select all orphaned nodes using the select all checkbox, or select specific points that you want to delete.

  4. Select Delete Nodes.

    Note: The nodes will delete immediately. No confirmation is required.
