Linking and Unlinking Channels
In order for a channel to be used as a data source for a
location, it needs to be linked to a zone. If you want to link a
channel to a location, or if you no longer want a channel
associated with a particular location, you can unlink it using
the Locations Manager. It is also possible to view the history
of all channels linked to a specific Location by clicking the
Options dropdown in the Devices tab of Location properties
and selecting “Include Link History.”
To link a channel:
Note: Before you can link channels to a zone and cre-
ate a new Location, the channel must be set up
by your viewLinc administrator. Refer to the spe-
cific User Guide to learn more about enabling
and disabling device channels on your Vaisala
Veriteq device or 300 Series Transmitter.
Note: Channels cannot be dropped on a location that is
already linked to another channel. It is only pos-
sible to have 1 channel per location.

From
Options | System Configuration | Locations Manager
,
ensure you have created the zone for the location that
you want linked to a channel. You must have at least one
zone created (in addition to System which is created by
default) in order to link locations.

Navigate the Device Browser in Locations Manager and
expand the device with the channel you’d like to link. If
