NOTES:
1. All the fields marked with an asterisk (*) are
mandatory. However, it is advised to provide all
the information in the fields, so that WebVision
can provide more manageable features.

NOTE: To support 3rd party devices other than the
controllers listed in the dialog box, you must have a
corresponding Niagara LNML file that contains
information about the device and its points. This file
has to be uploaded while adding a device to
WebVision. WebVision allows you to create alarms
and trends on the 3rd party devices. WebVision
cannot drive the device's scheduled occupancy
state, do energy management using DLC, or do VAV
balancing for 3rd party devices.
To discover devices:
You can discover the devices available on the network and
then add them to WebVision.
NOTE: Once a device is selected in the Discovered Device
table, only the matching device type in the Available
devices table is enabled for selection.
1. Click the Devices tab. The Device List page appears.
2. Click Discover. The Discover Device in the network
dialog box appears. The discovered devices are
displayed.
Fig. 26. Devices Tab - Device List - Discover button.
3. Select a channel on which you want to discover
devices.
4. Click Discover to start discovery. Once the discovery is
completed, WebVision lists the discovered new devices
on the left side list.
5. If you want to match a discovered device against an
existing device in WebVision, select the discovered
device on the left side list and select the existing device
on the right side list and click Match.
NOTE: Check the Select All check box to select all the
devices simultaneously.
6. Click Add to add discovered devices as new devices to
WebVision. The selected device gets added to the
Available Devices list.
7. Click OK to save the settings.
8. Click Log to view the discovery status.
NOTE: Click Cancel to abort the action.
NOTE: After discovering the devices you must upload the
device bindings to save the existing bindings onto
WebVision. This prevents you from losing the
existing binding, while downloading the new binding.
To upload, see “To upload device bindings:” on
page 19.
Deleting Devices
Deleting a device removes it from the device list as well as
from all other configurations such as trends, alarms, special
displays, DLC and schedules. Any alarms generated before
the device was deleted is still displayed on the Alarms page.
NOTE: You will not be able to see the deleted device in any
of the pages until it is discovered and added using
device add or discovery operation.
When you delete a device (that provides current power input),
the DLC service is disabled. All the alarms generated by a
device are available on the Alarms Summary screen.
However, the link present on the device fails, when the device
is deleted. Both trend configuration and trend data gets
deleted from the database.
To delete a device:
1. Click the Devices tab. The Device List page appears.
2. Select the devices that you want to delete by checking
the corresponding check box.
3. Click Delete to delete the devices.
