  • Patent number: 12001670
    Abstract: A device with a display and a touch-sensitive surface displays a user interface including an object. While displaying the user interface, the device detects a first and a second portion of an input, where the first portion includes contact(s) at a location corresponding to the object and the second portion includes movement of the contact(s). In response: upon determining that the second portion was detected shortly after detecting the contact(s): when the first input has a first predefined number of contacts, the device drags the user interface object or a representation; and when the first input has a second predefined number of contacts, the device forgoes the dragging. Further in response, upon determining that the second portion was detected after the contact(s) had been detected at the location for at least the first threshold amount of time, the device drags the user interface object or the representation thereof.

  • Publication number: 20240176631
    Abstract: An onboarding wizard that may automatically scan the network for devices, points, history, alarms, and schedules. Automatically, things will get added based on metadata information exposed over the network driver. Users may review the items discovered by an automated process and then remove them if any items are not needed. The wizard may register the cloud connector to cloud IoT for pushing the data. The wizard may also apply tagging for the points and equipment, automatically, based on the tag dictionary. The system may consist of a minimum tagging and asset model creation in the gateway as part of gateway onboarding. This model may be published to a cloud supervisor and get stored in a model store. Once the model is available in the cloud, an asset modelling feature allows a user, with privileges, to enhance the model by adding extra context about points and equipment.
