• Updating the Data Interval of a device

  The Data Interval specifies how often a device is expected to send data. This is used to determine how to automatically aggregate the data on graphs. For example, if a device is expected to send 30-minute data, setting the Data Interval to 30 minutes will ensure data is aggregated 30-minutely on graphs wherever possible. If a device only sends data daily it would not make sense to aggregate the data 30-minutely; instead, showing data aggregated daily would make more sense.Few readers
