In this article, you will learn how to rename your Mvix device in the Mvix CMS device library. Renaming your devices is helpful for enterprise deployments when distinguishing between numerous digital signage solutions. Follow the steps outlined below and learn how you can rename your devices.
What’s the Purpose of Renaming Mvix Devices?
When you have numerous Mvix devices that you have to manage, it is helpful to rename each device to help you manage and supervise devices more effectively. Choose different aliases for each device based on location, office, or purpose. Rename your Mvix devices for a better user experience.
Renaming your devices can help you to identify and distinguish between your devices. For example, it may be hard to remember which device number was installed in which location in your building. We suggest naming the device its location. In other words, if you have a device in a breakroom, name the device Breakroom. Another example would be to name your devices Lobby 1, Lobby 2, and Lobby 3 if you have 3 screens in your lobby.
Inside the CMS, there are other locations to change device names for enterprise companies, such as the Device Location View. Enterprise companies are able to further organize and identify devices based on building location, city locations, and more, which additionally allows you to perform bulk tasks. Learn more about the Device Location view.
