Info

For a list of the SmartServer widgets with links to the tasks you can perform using the widgets, see SmartServer CMS Widgets Index.

You can customize the information displayed by many of the CMS widgets. For widgets that display lists of resources such as device types, devices, datapoints, and datapoint properties, you can customize the list that is displayed with one or more search specifications that filter the contents of the lists to more rapidly find a particular entry in the list.

Widgets that include a search filter have a Set Filters button () at the top of the widget.

...

To set filters, perform the following steps:

  1. Open the SmartServer CMS.

  2. Open the Datapoints widget. Click the Expand button (Image Added).
