See Navigating the Vocera Platform Adapters for instructions.
Select New Adapter in the Action menu, or select an adapter you wish to configure and then select Edit, to display the configuration fields. The configuration fields are the same for new and existing adapters.

Complete the general adapter configuration fields as described in the table.

These fields are used by most adapters in the Vocera Platform.

Configuration Field	Description
Component Name	Click the Component Name field to display a list of the systems and devices that the Vocera Platform currently supports. Select the name of the adapter to create.
Reference Name	Enter a short descriptive name in the Reference Name field to uniquely identify an adapter instance. It may demonstrate the adapter function or other information; for example, Production adapter may differentiate a live adapter from a development or "sandbox" adapter.
Enabled	Select the Enabled checkbox to allow the Vocera Platform to use the new adapter. The Vocera Platform ignores the adapter if this option is disabled.
Required Datasets	If more than one dataset exists that meets the adapter's requirements, select the appropriate datasets for the new adapter to function correctly. The system searches for the datasets that meet the adapters requirements. If the datasets already exist, the system will use them. If the datasets do not exist, the system will create them automatically. Select Create in the drop-down menu to create a new dataset to meet the organization's requirements.

Select one of the available options to exit the adapter configuration page. See Saving an Adapter for details.
