Once you have created a collection, you add sensors to it using the Manage units button at the top of the collection page. You can add or remove sensors at any time — the collection does not need to be empty to make changes.
How to add units
- Open the collection from the Collections tab.
- Click Manage units in the top right corner.
- The Manage units panel shows all your sites and their sensors. Sites that have no sensors assigned yet are listed separately under Sites without units.
- Expand a site by clicking its name to see the individual sensors inside it.
- Click + Add next to a sensor to include it, or + Add all to add every sensor in that site at once. Added sensors are highlighted and marked with a tick.
- Use the search bar at the top to find a specific sensor by name.
- Click Next when you are done, then confirm to save your changes.
💡 Sensors remain part of their original site when you add them to a collection. A collection is an additional grouping, not a reassignment.
How to remove a unit
From the Table view inside the collection, click the three-dot menu (...) on the right side of any sensor row. You will see two options:
- Edit unit — opens the unit settings
- Remove unit from this collection — removes the sensor from this collection only. It remains in its site and any other collections it belongs to.
Applying a climate profile to a collection
You can apply a climate profile directly to a collection from the collection overview page. Under Applied Climate Profiles, click the + button to attach a profile.
This allows the collection to be monitored by its own set of thresholds, independently of whatever profiles are applied at site level. This is particularly useful when a group of objects has different conservation requirements to the rest of the building.
See What is a climate profile for more on how profiles work.
