Connect to Mobile device

A Connect to Mobile Device block is used to connect to any one of the available configurations. The user can switch to a different configuration than the default one applied to all flows. When you click on Expand, the block lists the below properties.

The Block Header (“Connect to Mobile Device”)

The green input connector in the header is used to trigger the block to start executing.

The green output connector in the header triggers when the mobile device has been successfully connected.

The title of the block (“Connect to Mobile Device”) can be changed by double-clicking on it and typing in a new title.

Select device configuration

The list of available configurations set up by the admin that the user can select to run a flow.

Default value is the fixed value set by the user under 'Use Configuration'

Error occurred

This green output connector triggers if “Connect to Mobile Device” returns an error during execution and this output connector can be used to branch the flow.

Default timeout

If the 'Default Timeout' property checkbox is not selected, then the timeout value is 60 seconds. If the 'Default Timeout' property checkbox is selected, then the 'Default timeout' value selected in the flow settings will be applicable.

Timeout

The maximum time spent in connecting to a device before giving up and triggering “Not found” (see above).

Note: All cases have a “global timeout” that can be configured in the “Settings” panel. This is unrelated to the timeout of a single building block. However, a running case will automatically be cancelled if it runs for longer than the global timeout.
