Defining a Custom SNMP Device

Scenario

You want to configure Desigo CC to monitor an SNMP device that is not included among the predefined ones provided with the installation (UPS, Printer, Scalance Switch, Analog Value, Multi-State Value, Binary Value, String Value, Time Value). This requires creating an SNMP library for the custom device, into which you import and configure its SNMP data model. For background information, see SNMP Library.

Prerequisites
