IMPORTANT: If the Gateway asset is muted, you will be able to view deployments but you will not be able to remove managed assets. The related links will be disabled if the Gateway asset is muted. Once that Gateway asset is unmuted, you can remove assets as needed.

1.       For the asset to remove, click Remove from the Actions column.

A message appears, prompting you to confirm that you want to remove this asset from the gateway.

2.       Click OK. The asset is removed from the gateway. It will continue to update the Platform with its data until it is again connected to another gateway for Platform communications.

Either continue with other changes or deploy your changes now.

Each time you make a change to an asset for its gateway connection, the Undo option in the Actions column is enabled and the Undo All button appears below the table

Changes for a selected asset.

If you want to cancel the change(s) made for a single asset, click Undo in the Actions column for that asset.

The Status column shows Removal Pending. When the asset next contacts the Platform and receives this change, the table updates and no longer shows the asset.

Changes for all assets.

1.       If you want to cancel all changes made to any assets for this gateway, click Undo All (below the table). A message appears prompting you to confirm that you want to remove all pending changes to the assets of this gateway.

When you are ready to send all queued (pending) changes to the gateway asset, click Deploy (below the table).

A message appears above the table, similar to the following:

"This configuration is currently in progress. The configuration will be uneditable until the gateway responds with its current configuration."

Note: In the period of time between deploying the configuration to the gateway and the asset receiving those configuration changes, the server prevents users from making any changes related to the gateway configuration.

To determine when the asset has received the received the configuration, click Refresh. When the asset has received the configuration, the message is no longer shown.

If the gateway asset has not yet contacted the Platform and received the configuration with your changes, you can cancel the deployment.

1.       Click Cancel Deployment.

2.       In the displayed confirmation message, click OK to continue the cancellation.

If the cancellation was effective, the table continues to show all changes queued and pending. You can remove these if appropriate.

If the cancellation was not effective, the configuration is deployed to the asset and the status column shows unchanged (because there are no further changes pending).
