Renaming devices

On the My Devices page, you can name the devices that are connected to your HCP Anywhere account. For example, if you have HCP Anywhere installed on two different Windows computers, you can use names such as "Work Laptop" and "Home Office Desktop" to distinguish them.

By default, the name of a device in HCP Anywhere is the name of the device itself or the manufacturer and model number for the device.

Note: You cannot rename any third-party applications that are connected to your account as they are managed through a single third-party applications row instead of individually.

To rename a device in HCP Anywhere:

1.Click on the gear icon ( ) in the top right hand corner of the Portal page.

2.In the menu that appears, click on My Devices.

3.On the My Devices page, click on the rename icon ( ) for the computer or mobile device you want to rename.

The Rename window appears.

4.In the Rename to field, type a new name for the device. The name can include any combination of letters, numbers, special characters, and white spaces.

5.Click on the Rename button.
