[[File:SeriesDeviceTypeAvailability.png|thumb|center|600px|Device Type Availability]]

The block has been totally refactored in MIB React, with the objective of simplifying the operation. Three different types of groupings were created.

[[File:deviceGroupingSelect.png|middle|200px]]

* '''By instances and groups'''

It has been divided in 3 different levels that can be expanded or collapsed:

# Instance level: The first level groups all the device availabilities for an instance. It can be used to enable/disable the availabilities and configure the quality for all the device types at the same time.

# Device Group level: The second level groups all the device types that belong to an specific group. Device Groups are managed globally in the [[Device_Type_Groups_Page_Manual_3.0|Device Type Groups page]]. You can enable/disable the availabilities and configure the quality for all the device types of an specific group.

# Device Type level: The third level contains the specific device types, in case you want to configure the availability and/or quality of an specific device type.

* '''By instances'''

It has been divided in 2 different levels that can be expanded or collapsed:

# Instance level: The first level groups all the device availabilities for an instance. It can be used to enable/disable the availabilities and configure the quality for all the device types at the same time.

# Device Type level: The second level contains the specific device types, in case you want to configure the availability and/or quality of an specific device type.

* '''Decives only'''

It contains only one level:

# Device Type level: Contains the specific device types, in case you want to configure the availability and/or quality of an specific device type.

'''Configuring quality'''

[[File:QualitySelector.png|thumb|Quality selector|left|200px]]

The quality selector allows you to configure the quality that will be available for an specific level. When no quality is selected (empty) for an specific level, it means that the sub-levels have different specific quality values configured.
