1. Click on + Device
2. Select your device model from the list:
3. Enter the IMEI number or select it from the list.
Device not yet reporting
If you selected a device brand that is not yet reporting to the platform (for instance, if you didn't follow the step 1 above), in that case you have to enter the Device ID / IMEI number manually:
Device already reporting
If your device is connected to the platform, when selecting the right model, you will see the available device's connection/s.
