Assigning sensors to equipment

Hello team!

I have a brain teaser and cant find the answer no where

So I just installed DCE server and client, added a rPDU device with the correct ddf
integrated DCE in DCO and found that device in discoveries with some of its sensor data
and now i am trying to associate it with the device in DCO

I cant find a way of dragging it to the rack/rPDU, tried looking around the different menus and found nothing relevant over there, browsed this forum and no luck here too

Could you please help me understand what is the correct way of doing this association?

and one more thing for some reason the data it shows in DCO is only the sensors connected to the rPDU data, and no actual data of the rPDU as kW, Amps and so - what could be the reason for that?

Thank you very much!

Okay so i have managed to find the answer on my own
there is an option in DCO which located under the drop menu of "Operation" and called "Device Association" - it will open a tab from which you can drag the sensor to its device and see your information

in my case i found that the kW data was transferring and after associating it with the pdu i saw the current kW and all the temperature data that my sensors provide

hope it helps anyone else who struggled

have a nice day
