Viewing information in the devices table for selected nodes

For nodes representing known devices on the network map, you can view information in the devices table. The devices table automatically applies a filter based on the IDs of known devices.

The capability to load information is available if no more than 200 nodes representing known devices are selected. You can select the relevant nodes individually or as part of collapsed groups that include the relevant devices. When a collapsed group is selected, all devices in the child groups of any nesting level are also included in the device selection.

To view information about devices in the devices table:

1. On the network map, select one or multiple objects representing nodes of known devices and/or collapsed groups.

   To select multiple nodes and/or groups, perform one of the following actions:

   • Hold down the SHIFT key and use your mouse to select a rectangular area containing the relevant objects.
   • Hold down the CTRL key and use your mouse to select the relevant objects.

   The details area appears in the right part of the web interface window. The details area shows the total number of selected nodes and groups while also showing the quantitative distribution of selected objects by type.

2. If the selected objects belong to different types or categories of devices, you can exclude certain types of objects (for example, nodes of devices that are unknown to the application) or categories (for example, PLC). To do so, clear the check box next to the name of the category or type.
3. Depending on the number of selected objects, click the Show device or Show devices button (the Show devices button is not available if the total number of known devices in the selection exceeds 200).

The Assets section opens. The devices table on the Devices tab will apply a filter based on the IDs of devices corresponding to the selected nodes on the network map.
