### Mandatory fields:

1. &#x20;**Device name**: The name of the device. This name is used throughout SolidRed as a unique identifier to keep track of the device. **Note:** Once filled in, the name can not be changed. The "Label" field can be used to show the device under a different name.

4. **Device type:** The type of device to add. The device type can be found in the device's documentation. Clicking the field will open a drop-down list including all available devices. The device type defines how the device is handled in SolidRed.
5. **Key**: The device specific encryption key. The key is provided in a file when purchasing the device.
6. **Sensor orientation:** (only applicable to the NEON Vibration Sensor) the sensor orientation is based on the position it is installed, related to the asset.
