Data Groups

With few exceptions, data groups must be defined in a device template file (DTF) in order for them to be available for use on a remote device. Which data groups are defined by a device template file depends on protocol, device type, and unique configuration.

CygNet distributes sample device template files for its EIEs, each of which typically serves one or more hardware models along with applicable firmware. Therefore, the data groups described below are only those data groups defined by CygNet in sample device template file(s). Your template(s) might not include some of the data groups described below. Device template files exist to enable users to customize device configurations; however, CygNet is not responsible for changes made by users.

For information about data group definitions and device template files, see Device Template Files.

For more information about data group dependencies, see Data Group Dependencies.
