Figure 21: Devices view

2.4.4 Devices window

All devices of your project are displayed in the Devices window, including those that have
not yet been assigned to a room, function or line. As a result, you can often gain a good
overview of your project, for example whether there are devices without an assigned
individual address.

This list can be very large. It can therefore be very useful to set a filter. Further information
on filters is explained in the section on complex project design.

With the devices displayed in this window, you can carry out all the tasks that can also be
performed in the Buildings window or Topology window: editing devices, editing objects
etc.

2.4.5 Project Root window and Catalogs window
The Project Root window combines together the Buildings, Group Addresses, Topology
and All Devices windows in one window.
One often opens the Catalogs window indirectly when inserting devices in the Buildings
window or in the Topology window.

2.4.6 Side Bar
The Side Bar bundles functions and information one frequently requires during project
design and commissioning.
The side bar is always displayed, except in conjunction with the dashboard. It is located
on the right-hand or left-hand side of the screen and can be selected via the menu
function Workplace / Side Bar /... . On the dashboard under Settings / View, you can
select whether only one container is open in the side bar or several simultaneously.
