Templates
Definition, Types and Structure
Templates are xml files which contain all the sensor configuration for all the sensors. This includes sensors, actions, rules and everything the azeti SiteController is programmed to do. This file will later be deployed to each site.

All the changes done to a template are inherited to the templates below them. So if a sensor inside component instance is edited, all the site templates and locations templates that use it will be edited as well automatically. The exception being those changes that were done directly on the lower template. So if, for example, sensor X state threshold is changed on a site template, and then on a component instance, the change done directly on the site template will take precedence, and the change done on the component instance will not be applied.
