As soon as your connexion is done, you can visualize your network. As we can see on the “devices” space, the gateway (object 260000) owns several sensors (260001 to 2600xx).

On the ”address space”, we can visualize the different entries of a sensor.

TIPS: To see all the properties of an object you have to right click and select “Get Properties name”

 

By clicking on an element of the “Address Space”, we can visualize the properties of the element.
In this example, we are looking at the temperature of the device which is each 0 degrees Degrees Celsius (unit 62).

 

You can retrieve your gateway information by clicking on the gateway device:

The same way, you can visualize your sensor (DevEUI is available in the device description field):
