On the General tab of the Unit Properties dialog the following parameters are set:

Name
Enter a name for the unit from 4 to 50 characters.

Device type
Select device type from the list of supported hardware. There can be an additional button near the selected device which can be used to configure some device parameters for the given unit (if this facility is provided in device configuration).

Unique ID
Enter a unique ID for the unit to be identified by the system. Usually it is IMEI or serial number.

Phone number
Here type phone number of the unit if it has embedded SIM card. Phone number should be in the international format, e.g. +15557654321.

Device access password
This password is required for some device types to execute commands or send data.

Creator
This combo box is available if you have several users under your control. Otherwise, the current user is assigned unit's creator.

Account
Here you can see to which account the unit belongs (if you have any access to this account). Account and creator cannot be changed.

If you access rights to the unit is view, some of the fields may be hidden. It can occur that only name and counters would be available.

Attention!
Units with the same IDs within certain device type as well as units or drivers with the same phone numbers cannot exist in the system. If you are attempting to create a unit with a repeated ID or phone number, a special alert will be displayed, and you will be offered to edit the unit so that you can alter these fields. However, if you do not edit these fields, the unit will be created anyway but with empty ID or phone number.
