Parameter Management - 2. Parameters for Single Device

Parameters for Single Device

You can configure parameters for single device from its Device Profile.To configure application parameters: Go to Device Search and search for the device.Click on serial number in Serial# column to view the Device Profile information.On the Device Profile, click Device Details > Parameter.The screen shows all the applications ­assigned to the selected device. You can configure Parameters of the Application by editing the Parameter values and assigning the Parameter Templates.Based on the information in form view file the Basic Parameter and Advance Parameter editing with the access control options such as Advanced, Basic, View, and None are provided for the user.The access control operates both at the Container level and the parameter level. However, the access control of the Container level always takes precedence.The sample form view XML file with the access control is displayed below:The roles are assigned to the level of access. The below table lists the access, rights and the privileges provided to the user.

VHQ provides the user with separate rights and privileges to edit parameters rather than editing them with the Device rights.
EXAMPLE: Currently, the user, with the Basic Parameter right and Advanced Parameter rights can edit the parameters of a single device from the Device profile.
With Basic and Advanced Parameter rights, Import Parameter and Activation Parameter rights are added in VHQ.Import Parameter Right: User with the assigned Import right can import devices and hierarchy in VHQ. VHQ checks for the Device right during import process. Based on the operations specified in import XML, VHQ checks for the rights of the user before performing the operations.Activation Parameter Right: User with the assigned Activation right can activate parameters in VHQ. The user must have Device modify right with the Activation right. With the Device right the user is only able to update or edit the parameters in UI but will not be able to send the parameters to device. In order to send the parameters to the device or activate the parameters, the user must have the Activation Parameter rights.VHQ provides right and privilege to perform global operations from VHQ GUI that involves more than one device. All the global operations in Device Search screen should be restricted based on this right.Following is the list of Global operations in Device Search screen where more than one device is involved. Global Right works on top of existing rights for specific operations.
