Folders
Folders are used to organize tree items. They are typically used to contain a single type of item, such as
all points on a device, all schedules, or all devices in a specific area.
Any type of item may be placed inside a folder, including other folders. On a system with many items it is
important to keep them organized for ease of use. One organizational system might be something like:

But there are no built-in limitations on how items are organized.
Settings Tab
Label
Label is the name of the item as displayed in the
Device Tree .
All items in the Device Tree are sorted alphabetically by label.
Group Settings Tab
These determine which user groups can see this item in the tree. Unchecking the default “Allow Everyone”
enables selecting individual groups. If a group cannot see an item, items under it are also unseen.
There are “Check All” and “Uncheck All” buttons in the upper-right corner to make major changes easier.
Advanced Tab
Name
Name is used for advanced features. If left blank, it will be assigned automatically. It is recommended
that the default value not be changed. It can be up to 48 characters. Only A
–Z, a–z, 0–9, period (.) and
underscore (_) are allowed. Names are case sensitive.
