  • Name - It is recommended to assign a unique unit name for each unit in the design based on the unit's purpose or location. Composer will always append a unique numeric identifier to this name.

  • Enabled - When the enabled box is checked, the unit must be physically present on the network for a Push of the site file to the hardware.
