Managing Rated Capacity

Override a device's rated battery capacity value to get more accurate readings and measurements for analysis. SOTI XSight can provide estimated rated capacity values for devices that are generally more accurate than those provided by the manufacturer (see Battery Status Dashboard). After deploying a device and allowing its characteristics to stabilize, use the estimated rated capacity value provided by SOTI XSight to override a manufacturer’s rated capacity value.

Accessing the Manage Rated Capacity Panel

  1. Log into the SOTI XSight web console as administrator.

  2. From the main menu, select Operational Intelligence.
