User Guides

By default, all devices use the same provisioning/claiming instructions, but occasionally, the device may require a specific Installation Guide, Troubleshooting link or Device Preparation Instructions. You can set them up for each Template separately:

  1. Go to Template

  2. Open the User Guides tab

  3. Click on the item you’d like to modify

You can reset the Guides to default by clicking the Reset To Default button.
