Category Description

Category

This page manages categories. A category refers to the group that entities belong to. You can add new information to existing categories, delete existing information, change icons, and create new categories. Categories consist of Name, Parent Category, Static Field, Dynamic Field, and SVG. Static and Dynamic Fields are displayed in ADT attributes.

Name

Defines what to call the category.

Example: TruckChute, RSU, Crusher

Parent Category

Defines which category this category belongs to. A category must have a Parent Category. Categories without a Parent Category are Root Categories, which include Tag, Asset, Vehicle, People, Sensor, and Annotation. Root Categories cannot be changed in SNT and can be modified by OT and Andorean together. Static Fields, Dynamic Fields, and SVG of Root Categories are not inherited by children.

Example: Asset, People, Vehicle

Static Field

This is information that entities belonging to this category can have as fixed data.

Example: Mine_area, Phone, Type

Dynamic Field

This is information that entities belonging to this category can have as variable data.

Example: status, level

SVG

The icon belonging to this category is displayed in ADT with this SVG. Size: 20px by 20px.

Caution

When a category is deleted, their entities are also deleted.
