Devices

Menu path: UMS Web App > Devices

Device changes made in the UMS Console are immediately available in the UMS Web App, and vice versa.

In the Devices area, you can manage devices registered on the UMS Server. All devices registered on the UMS Server are shown.

You can structure the Devices area by creating directories and subdirectories. When doing so, you should bear in mind that each device can only be stored in a single directory.

Avoid placing too many devices in one folder, see Performance Optimizations.

Status Displays

The UMS monitors the status of the devices by regularly sending UDP packets. In accordance with the preset, this occurs every 3 seconds. For information on how to change the interval for the online check, see Devices.

When the device is connected via IGEL Cloud Gateway (ICG), a cloud symbol icon is added to the device.

The exclamation mark indicates that changes have not yet been transferred to the device:
