Device Metadata

Every device provides some or all of the following data objects:

• Device settings that are available in the form of Device context variables.

• Device operations available as functions of a Device context. Iotellect Server also creates one action per every device operation for convenient interactive or non-interactive execution of those functions.

• Device events, i.e. events of a Device context.

• Device assets for logically grouping settings, operations and events into a hierarchical group tree.

The metadata is retrieved from a device during full synchronization.

For each of the data objects (assets, variables, functions, or and events) associated with the device, the following properties are shown:
