Model Type

Every model is given a model type that specifies what sort of devices it will be used for and applies certain restrictions to various features in the platform based on those devices' usage and capabilities.

There are three model types:

Every device also has a type. Assigning a device to a certain model will implicitly assign the model's type to the device too.

A device with a model of type Telematics will automatically also have type Telematics.

Restrictions

Each model type is associated with certain restrictions, applied to every model of that type, that prevent users from entering settings that will not work on that type of device.

See the pages on alerts, CAN databases, and modules for more info.
