Duplicating a Device Type

Duplicating a device type allows the rapid creation of device types with similar attributes which can then be edited at a later time.

To duplicate a Device Type:
  1. Open Device Manager.
  2. From the toolbar ribbon, click Manage Device Types to open the Defined Device Types dialog.
  3. From the device types listed in the Defined Device Types dialog, single-click on the one to be duplicated. The device type is now highlighted.
  4. Click Duplicate. The selected device type is instantly duplicated and displayed in the list of device types, identifiable by Copy after the device type name.

The device type can now be edited as required.
