You can attach operating instructions, maintenance documents or photographs to a device, or Spot. Files then appear alongside the device they concern.
These instructions cover adding files to an existing Spot in the browser. You need permission to edit it.
Add a file
- Open Assets, devices, tools and select Default table.
- Find the Spot by name and click it. Confirm the correct device.
- Go to Files in the basic details.
- Select Add files and open a file from your computer, or drop it into the form's file upload area.
- Wait for uploading to finish and check that it appears among the Spot's files.
Check allowed file types and maximum size beside the upload area before adding large files.
Files save separately: On an existing Spot, uploading starts as soon as you select a file. It does not wait for the form's Save button. Do not assume closing the form cancels an upload already completed.
If you also edit the Spot's name, description or other basic details, save those separately using Save.
Why can I not add a file?
Add files is missing. You may have viewing permission without editing permission. Ask your administrator to check.
The file cannot be selected or upload fails. Check its type, size, network connection and any error. Wait for the upload before closing the view.
I do not know whether it was added. Reopen the Spot and check its files before trying again to avoid duplicates.
