First, you must compile a list of devices. The list must be comprised of devices' <b>serial numbers</b> and <b>LAN MAC addresses</b> (<b>IMEIs</b> for TRB) and it must be stored in a <b>CSV</b> file. You can create CSV files with programs like <i>Microsoft Excel</i>, <i>OpenOffice Calc</i> or a simple text editor like <i>Notepad</i>, which we'll be using for this example.<br>Create a new text file and list your devices. An entry for a single device should be comprised of the device's serial number and LAN MAC address (or IMEI) separated by a <b>comma</b> (<b>,</b>) symbol. Different entries for different devices should be separated by <b>line breaks</b>:
+
'''<span style="color:#0455a4"><big>Important!</big></span>'''
 +
----
 +
*'''Enable auto crediting checkmark''' - if checked, a credit will automatically be assigned to the added device (if there are any available).
 +
*The devices should appear in the device table immediately, but at first they will be shown as offline (<span style="color:#e04549">'''red'''</span>).
 +
*When the status circle turns <span style="color:#368d3b">'''green'''</span>, the system will have finished adding the device to RMS.
 +
*The time it takes for the system to register all devices may vary depending on the number of devices.

===Preparing CSV file===
 +
----
 +
You can download an example file [https://rms.teltonika-networks.com/assets/demo_files/Demo_add_device_list.csv from here]. Or you can prepare the CSV file for your list of devices manually. The list must be comprised of devices <b>LAN MAC addresses,</b> <b>Serial numbers</b> (<b>IMEIs</b> for TRB), and '''Name''' columns. You must save it as a <b>CSV</b> file. You can create/edit CSV files with programs like <i>Microsoft Excel</i>, <i>OpenOffice Calc</i>, or a simple text editor like <i>Notepad</i>, which we'll use for this example.
 +
 +
Create a new text file and set the order of device parameters in the first line. For example:
 +
 +
mac,serial,name
 +
 +
Single entry for single device consists of the device's LAN MAC address (or IMEI) and serial number separated by <b>commas</b> (<b>,</b>). Each line should contain information about a single device (see example below).

* If you are editing the file with Notepad. Click the "Save As" option. Then next to "Save as type", choose "All Files" and add the '''.csv''' extension next to the file name.
