Remote Edition: Categories & Subcategories

Remote Edition: Categories & Subcategories


This tutorial explains the concept of Categories & Subcategories in the application.  Each Profile in the application can have one or more Categories & Subcategories.  Overall the design is to allow for personalized setups of individual profiles.  The easiest way to explain this concept is with an example.

In this example we have 3 Profiles setup in the application.
  • Rob
  • Ana
  • Public
    •  
Each Profile will require at least 1 Category & 1 Subcategory created for it.  Let's take for instance Rob's Profile.  In Rob's Profile for Categories we have:
  • Home
  • Vacation Home
  • Business
For each Category in Rob's Profile he may have a different setup.  At the very least it will be a unique set of devices for that Category.  In addition he may have Subcategories if he has more than one setup of devices.  In this case let's drill down on Rob's 'Home' Category and see what kinds of Subcategories he may have.

Rob's Subcategories for 'Home' Category:
  • Living Room
  • Bedroom
  • Home Theater
    •  

So at this point we have a Profile 'Rob' with a Category 'Home' and he may have several 'Rooms' in his home with different products to control in each.  By setting up Subcategories under the main Category 'Home' Rob can now personalize his setups by Room.

Now the last point from here is to drill down into a Subcategory.  This will take you to the actual 'User Devices' list for that Subcategory.  This is the section where you will actually add the device(s) to be controlled for that Profile, Category, & Subcategory. 

For instructons on how to add devices into the application see the Remote Edition manual or their respective tutorials on the FAQ under Support of this website.

Finally here you see a screenshot of the device listing for Subcategory 'Living Room' under the 'Home' Category of Rob's 'Profile'.


That concludes the tutorial for Categories & Subcategories.  If you have any questions please contact support for more information.
