Linking and Unlinking Channels
In order for a channel to be used as a data source for a
location, it needs to be linked to a zone. If you want to link a
channel to a location, or if you no longer want a channel
associated with a particular location, you can unlink it using
the Locations Manager. It is also possible to view the history
of all channels linked to a specific Location by clicking the
Options dropdown in the Devices tab of Location properties
and selecting “Include Link History.”
To link a channel:
Note:
Before you can link channels to a zone and cre-
ate a new Location, the channel must be set up
by your viewLinc administrator. Refer to the spe-
cific User Guide to learn more about enabling
and disabling device channels on your Vaisala
Veriteq device or 300 Series Transmitter.
Note:
Channels cannot be dropped on a location that is
already linked to another channel. It is only pos-
sible to have 1 channel per location.
