<%NUMBERING1%>.<%NUMBERING2%>.<%NUMBERING3%> PRTG Manual: Object Selector

Some features in PRTG need you to select an object. Therefore, PRTG may show you the object selector. It enables you to browse all objects in your configuration and select an object in two steps.

Step 1: Browse Device Tree

On the left-hand side, you see a device tree specific to your setup that you can browse by clicking the corresponding nodes. Click a device to view its sensors on the right-hand side.

You can directly search for objects in the device tree by entering a probe name, group name, or device name into the Search box above the device tree navigation. You can also use a substring only. The resulting objects are instantly displayed.

Step 2: Select or Find Object

If you select a device on the left-hand side, you see the sensors on this device on the right-hand side. The respective sensor is shown as well. Hover over a sensor on the right side to view its parent device and group.

You can also directly find sensors by entering the sensor name, group name, device name, or tag into the Find box above the sensor list.

Select an object and click the OK button.
