Detach A Fill Level Sensor from an Asset

A Fill Level Sensor can be removed from an Asset if it needs to be replaced or allocated to a different Asset. This article shows how to detach a Fill Level Sensor from an Asset.

 

If you detach a Fill Level Sensor from an Asset, we advise against deleting the Asset from the Map View. Deleting the Asset will result in the permanent deletion of all related historical data, including any images associated with that Asset. This action is irreversible.

If there is no current Fill Level Sensor allocated to the Asset, the Settings option will not be visible in this section.

If a Fill Level Sensor was previously assigned to the Asset, you can view the Allocation Date and End Date, indicating when the Fill Level Sensor was detached from the asset.

  • On the Detach Sensor from Bin pop-up screen, click on Yes, Detach It! 

  • On the Set Status Sensor Availablity pop-up screen, please choose Available if you plan on re-allocating the Fill Level Sensor to any Asset

Choosing Not Available will render the Fill Level Sensor unavailable for allocation to any Asset. This status typically indicates that the Fill Level Sensor is no longer fit for purpose.
