      Check Report Data

      Data lenses are the best way for checking and organizing data reported by the device.

      When devices report data to the system, it may not send in a way that is necessarily easily read and understood by humans. A Data Lens can help you translate the potentially hard-to-read data into a more human-friendly format. 

      Data Lens

      A data lens is a filter that you place over your data to highlight the aspects of interest. It distills the raw information into its essential or relevant components.
