When an edge node in Maximo® Visual Inspection Edge is integrated with Maximo Monitor, a generic device type is created in Maximo Monitor.
Set up the device type so that you can view the device type metrics and dimensions that were created
in Maximo Monitor.
About this task
The device types that are used for the integration are created, modified, and managed in Maximo Visual Inspection Edge only. Any changes that are made in Maximo Visual Inspection Edge are automatically reflected in Maximo Monitor.
Procedure
-
In Maximo Monitor, from the side navigation menu, click
Setup and then click the Devices tab.
-
In the Device types list, enter the unique edge node prefix.
-
Select the generic device type and then click Set up device type.
The metrics and dimensions that were automatically created are displayed.
- Optional:
Archive the device type in Maximo Monitor and then delete it.
Maximo Visual Inspection Edge periodically reconciles
Maximo Monitor to detect deleted device types deletions and deletes the corresponding device type in
Maximo Visual Inspection Edge.
Note: You can delete a device type in Maximo Monitor only so that the data for the device in the Maximo Monitor data lake is not deleted.
