A Location for a stationary asset is comprised of a name and address and is associated with the asset in the Platform.
You can associate multiple locations with a region. Once a location is associated with a region, assets associated with that location are automatically associated with that region, enabling you to search the applications by region to find associated assets. For example, all locations associated with the Massachusetts region are also associated with the Northeast, USA, and North America regions.
You can create and configure locations within the Axeda® Configuration application. For assets that are running Axeda® Gateway or Axeda® Connector Agents, you can use the Axeda® Deployment Utility to provide location information to the Axeda® Platform.
For information about Locations for mobile assets, refer to Location definition (mobile asset).
For information about security for Locations, refer to Security for Objects in Axeda® Connected Product Management Applications and for information about security for these objects when Delegated Administration is enabled, refer to Security for Objects in Delegated Administration Units.
Also note that Delegated Admin visibility restrictions and privileges are NOT fully supported for Locations. See Supported Objects for Delegated Administration for more information.
