Asset templates are a kind of “blueprint” for assets. They determine which Attributes an asset has, for example «temperature», «humidity», «illuminance» or the «number of people». These attributes define the values that can be monitored or controlled with an asset.
If you ↗ create a new asset, you will be prompted to select an asset template . The asset created in this way then contains all predefined attributes of the template.
Manually creating assets can take a lot of time – especially when each asset needs to be equipped with specific attributes.
With Asset modeling you can create templates for different asset types and reuse them as often as you like.
A building contains hundreds of smoke detectors.
Without asset modeling you would have to create each smoke detector individually and assign it the appropriate attributes.
With asset modeling you create the asset template once "smoke detector". This template already contains all relevant attributes. If you now create a new smoke detector, simply duplicate the template and only adjust the specific properties such as location or ID.
▷ This saves time and ensures consistent management of your assets. 🚀
