Configuring a single device

There are three ways to configure a single device.

Using the Modify button

1. From SyncThru™ Admin 5, click Devices menu > Configuration > Configuration Settings.
2. Select the device you want to configure.
3. Click Modify button from the Devices List. A window pops up.

If you can’t see the Modify button, resize the panel or use the horizontal scroll bar to find it (See "Resizing
panels" on page 15).

4. Select the item you want and configure the setting.
5. Click OK/Apply.

Using Configuration Settings panel

1. From SyncThru™ Admin 5, click Devices menu > Configuration > Configuration Settings.
2. Select the device you want to configure. You can see Configuration Settings on the right side of the page.
3. Select the items you want to configure.
4. Click OK/Apply.

Action List works as a temporary storage for configuration items. If you add items you want to configure, you
can see them in the Action List section. This can prevent you from making a mistake by providing a change to
check again before applying the configurations. If you decide to not configure some items, you can easily
remove them from the Action List and apply.

Using the Configuration button from the Device Information panel

All the History panels and main Devices list (Devices menu > Group/List) have a Device Information panel on the
right side. The Device Information panel has a Configuration button that provides device configuration.

Configuring multiple devices

If you try to configure multiple devices including different models with different capabilities, some configurations
can fail because some of them cannot be supported by the specified devices or some of them cannot be
available options. After your configuration is done, you can see the results with details, in Configuration
History
. If configuration fails, you can see the reasons for the failures.

2. Select the devices you want to configure. You can see Configuration Settings on the right side of the page.
3. Select the items you want to configure.

Using CSV files

You can use this configuration method for any items, but it’s useful when you need to configure items that should be
unique. For example, an asset number cannot be repeated for managing devices. In this case, you may configure all
the devices one-by-one without this feature.
1. From SyncThru™ Admin 5, click Devices menu > Configuration > Configuration Settings.
2. You can see Export CSV and Import CSV buttons on the upper right side. Use these buttons to configure the

CSV files.
