Creating and Managing Templates
Step 1: Create a New Template
Click the "+" button on the Area Management section under Template Details.
Define the installation area (e.g., Single Family, Multi-Family).
Add basic information like Template Name and optional notes.
Step 2: Adding Devices to Templates
Once the area is created, click the "+" button under Devices to be installed.
The "Add Devices" popup will appear.
Select devices from the categories:
Gateway
Door Lock
Sensor
IP Camera
Thermostat
Energy
Other
Assign the appropriate quantity for each device type. Refer to the second screenshot for device selection.
Step 3: Save and Use the Template
Review the selected devices and confirm by clicking OK.
The template is now ready for use during installations. It will enforce installers to follow the predefined setup.
Best Practices
Avoid Over-restriction: Only use templates for projects requiring strict adherence to device configurations.
Custom Templates: Create templates specific to each property type (e.g., single-family rentals vs. vacation homes) to streamline device allocation.
Review Regularly: Update templates as new devices or configurations become available.
Key Notes
Templates are optional and designed for use cases where exact device specifications are crucial and only managed by EasyHub or trained professionals.
For general installations, allow flexibility for property managers to adapt setups as needed.
Templates can be particularly useful for compliance in projects with external auditing or strict regulatory requirements.
