SCS System Administration

Name Mapping

When a new sensor is created inside CFE it is automatically assigned a system generated name.  This helps with cross-referencing and data discovery once the data makes it to the archives and is [potentially] combined with data from other ships.  The system name is not very user friendly however which is why SCS provides the ability for the ship to create Display Names as an alternate name to be used in various widgets, visualizations and systems inside SCS.

 

The Name Mapping page provides users a way to quickly see a list of all sensor configuration items and how their system generated name maps to the user defined display name.  This makes it easier to determine what exactly you are looking at if you're only given one or the other naming convention.  The data can be exported to excel via the button at the top of the grid for use outside of SCS.
