How to upload blueprints and attach sensors

Uploading Blueprints

The blueprint must be a single image file in one of the following formats: JPG, PNG, BMP, or HEIC. If uploading a PDF, ensure the blueprint is on the first page.

Steps to upload the blueprint

1. Navigate to Blueprints
   • Go to Blueprints in the sidebar.
2. Upload the blueprint
   • Press Upload blueprint.
   • Fill out the details and description.
   • Press Upload blueprint.

Attaching sensors to blueprints

You have two options for attaching sensors to blueprints:

1. Attach the blueprint to a group and add sensors
2. Add sensors directly to the blueprint

We recommend option 1 for better organization and management.

Option 1: Attach blueprint to a group

• Go to Groups in the sidebar.
• Click the desired group.

• Go to the Placement tab.
• Find the uploaded blueprint and press Attach to blueprint.
• Multiple blueprints can be attached to the same group.

3. Enable sensor management

• Unlock the “sensors attached” field by pressing the lock icon above the field. This allows you to add or remove sensors.
• Unlock the blueprint by pressing the lock icon in the blueprint field. This allows you to: add sensors to the blueprint, move sensors around, and remove sensors.

• Drag and drop the sensor icons from the list below the blueprint to the desired location on the blueprint.

Important tips

• Ensure the blueprint file is in the correct format (JPG, PNG, BMP, HEIC, or the first page of a PDF).
• Organizing blueprints and sensors by group improves management and clarity.
• Use the lock/unlock feature to manage sensor placement efficiently.

By following these steps, you can ensure a smooth process for uploading blueprints and accurately attaching sensors, enhancing your project's monitoring and management.
