How to link a BLE device to a Unit
Updated over a month ago

You can link a BLE device to a unit (that was created in from Asset management) to be able to use it in some of our other solutions like the Online map, Reports, Alerts and more!

🔔 You can only link BLE devices to units that were created from Asset management, using the type "New unit".

📘 Data from the BLE device will be shown on the unit only after they are linked. Data from the BLE device before they were linked won't be shown.

🔔 If you choose a BLE device that is already linked to a different unit, this will cancel the link with the other unit and replace it with this unit.

📘 Only BLE devices that are in a Active status can be linked to a unit. You will only be able to select the BLE devices that you have access to and that have an "Active" status. If the BLE device's status is changed to Disabled it will automatically disconnect from the unit. When the status is changed back to Active, it will automatically reconnect to the previously linked unit.
