A sensor link directs measurements to the correct device's, or Spot's, attributes. Make sure the IoT connection is enabled and the Spot has the required attributes.

  1. Open the Spot's details and the action for linking a sensor.
  2. Select the sensor type and enter its DevEUI.
  3. Map the sensor's fields to the correct Spot attributes.
  4. Check field data types and any tag requirement.
  5. Save the link and open the linked sensor's details.
  6. Check the time of the received measurement and, if needed, network details.

A field producing numeric values needs a suitable numeric attribute. If the sensor configuration uses the Spot's tag, the Spot must have a tag before linking. Complete missing information in the Spot's details first.

A saved link does not by itself show that the sensor has sent a new measurement. Check the timestamp before treating a value as current.

When replacing a sensor or removing a link, check the correct Spot and identifier. An incorrect mapping may direct measurements to another device.
