Detectors
The Detectors section is designed to add, edit, configure, and remove detectors from the System.
When you click on Menu item Detectors, you go to the detectors page which contains a filter and a list of all detectors existing in the System. The filter specifies parameters for sorting detectors by name, project, connection status, ID, state of the switch responsible for the primary data analysis, and application of the duplication algorithm.
Next to the list name of Detectors, information about the total number of detectors in the System is displayed.
