Managing Locations & Zones
In general, each Vaisala Device is set up to monitor a specific physical
location; however, depending on your Device configuration, you could use
one Device to monitor multiple physical locations.
For example if your Device has more than one Channel, (Devices have up
to five active data collection points), using Location and Zone folders, you
can control how this information displays on the viewLinc desktop.
Note: 300 Series Transmitters Output Quantities are displayed as Loca-
tions.
For example, if you have a Device with two temperature Channels, you
might view these data points in the Locations navigation tree as:
By identifying Locations in Zones you can also:
• Ensure that reporting is consistent for a specific Zone, regardless of
the Logger used to monitor that data location.
• Swap a Device easily from one Zone to another (perhaps when send-
ing a Logger out for calibration).
