Delete or Remove a Sensor

When your Administrator removes or reallocates a sensor, they will have the choice to either permanently delete the sensor or unallocate the sensor, which will let them reallocate the sensor later.

For the sensor you want to delete, click the Delete icon. A confirmation message displays "Would you like to remove the sensor from this location but keep it available for future reallocation or would you like to delete the sensor permanently?"

You can either:

  • Remove from location - This lets your Administrator remove the sensor from its building, floor, and space assignment and is placed in the ‘unallocated’ sensor inventory in the default Unallocated building for future use. This is useful when a sensor is allocated to the wrong space and needs to be moved to the correct space.
  • Delete permanently - This makes the sensor inactive in the database and it can't be allocated again. This is useful when the sensor is lost, broken, or replaced.
