Configure extended properties for a specific device asset

While adding a device asset to the asset tree or editing an existing device asset's properties, configure its extended properties as needed.
You can add up to 20 extended properties. The property names cannot be duplicated, empty, or exceed 256 characters. The property value cannot exceed 256 characters.
To configure extended properties for a specific device asset
  1. If you are not in Design mode, click design_mode_button.
  2. In the device asset's properties dialog box, under the
    Extended Properties
    category, click the
    Properties Configuration
    box, and then click the browse button.
  3. Edit, add, or delete extended properties:
    • To edit existing extended properties, click the cell of the
      Property Name
       or
      Property Value
       column, and then edit the property name or value.
    • To add extended properties:
      • If this is the first time of configuration, click the empty cell of the
        Property Name
         and
        Property Value
         columns, and then enter the property name and value.
      • If one or multiple extended properties exist, click
        Add
        to generate an empty row, click the empty cell of the
        Property Name
         and
        Property Value
         column, and then enter the property name and value.
        TIP:
        The property name cannot be empty while the property value could be empty.
        As you enter a property name on the bottom row, an empty row is generated beneath it, making it easy for you to configure another extended property. Double-clicking the empty cell of the bottom row also generates an empty row beneath it.
        Only one empty row can be added each time. If an empty row already exists or is just generated, clicking
        Add
        opens a message window, indicating that the property name cannot be empty.
    • To delete extended properties, click Delete extended properties_single to select a single extended property, or click Delete extended properties_all to select all the extended properties, click
      Delete
      , and then click
      Yes
      when prompted to confirm.
  4. Click
    OK
