Device Types

Some Device Types have extra fields that are type specific.
For Push Buttons and Displays you have to select the Function Types you want, f.ex. long-press, scene and dimming. Only the ones you select will be available when you configurate that device.
[NOTE: The devices that you download from the Online Catalog typically already have function types selected.]
Push Buttons also have the Label Printing function (only for Business and Premium subscriptions).
Remember to select the label template for the device. You can learn how to easily create custom labels for devices here.
