An existing device on the floor map can be replaced, when it is outdated or needs to be replaced by a high capacity device. To know more, see Single Device Replacement.
For more information on applying outcomes on multiple devices, see Multiple device replacement.

labelReplaceOneToOne

 

Reset can be done only on the replacing device. When a Reset is done on the new replacing device, the device will be removed and it reverts all the page volume that was transferred to it.
Reposition To  repositionTo1

 

This feature enables the repositioning of a device from one floor to another. When the Fleet Designer clicks the icon to reposition it on a different floor, the device gets stored in a bull pen (Temporary location as shown below).

The user can then navigate to a different floor (using navigational tiers) and view the bull pen. The device can now be dragged from there, to the floor.

Page volume transferred to the asset that’s being repositioned, will also get reset.

labelRepositionTo

Label on the device in the source location.

labelRepositionFrom

Label on the repositioned device in the destination location.

 

The device cannot be reset from the source floor.
If the device is reset from the destination floor, it is restored back to its original source floor.
Retire eliminate

 

If a particular device from the floor needs to be removed, the Fleet Designer can select the Retire outcome.

Note: Page volume of the device can be transferred before or after retiring the device.
labelRetire

 

The retired device will be restored on the floor.

Reposition reposition1

 

This outcome allows the repositioning of devices on the same floor.

When a device is repositioned, the previous position of the device is grayed out. The new position is seen in its original color to distinguish between the old and the new device locations.

A green dotted line from the old device to the new device indicates the new change in position of the device. This new position can be dragged anywhere on the floor map.

Page volume transferred to the device that’s being repositioned, will also get reset.

Note: In Transition state, dragging of devices is not possible if the page volume button is enabled.
labelRepositionToTheSameFloor

 

Reset can be performed only on the new position of the device.

The repositioned device will be moved to the original location from where it was repositioned.

Once an outcome has been set for a device, that information will be captured in the labels as well. Also notice that the label colors differ according to the outcome set on the devices. Refer to the Device Outcome table above to know more about the various label colors. Click the Show/hide label from the Utility Toolbar to see the device details. This is also applicable for a new device added in virtual state.

Labels on Real and Virtual Assets

labelForVirtualAsset

When the outcome of a device is set, it is indicated by the corresponding symbol on the device. When the user tries to add a new outcome on the same device , the device outcome options in the outcome wheel are grayed out. However, a new outcome can be set after performing a reset.
