Overview

The Models page presents the list of device types (models) being developed by a manufacturer. The Models page allows the OEM to define unique capabilities for a family of devices. As such, each device belongs to a single model.

A model is a device type specification; it defines the supported features, configuration schemas, rules, digital products, and more.

Multiple models should be used when the connected devices have different capabilities, commands, etc. If multiple device types have the same capabilities a single Model can be shared.
