Plan a Route in Mestro Input

Learn how to sort both properties and meters and customize the order as you want them in Mestro Input.

What does your workday look like? We understand that it can be time-consuming to navigate to the right meter through the node tree every time. That's why we've made it possible for you to sort both properties and meters and customize the order according to how you go about your workday, directly in the app!

Log in to Mestro Input and choose Plan route. The app will guide you through the process. The steps will also be explained in this article.

A saved route is stored on the user's login. You can have several saved routes per user. The route can also be edited afterward, or you can create an entirely new route.

Select properties to include

The first step in planning your route is to select which properties you want to be  included. Check the properties by ticking them in the list.

Image 1. The first step in planning your route it selecting the properties that should be included. 

Then click Next.

Arrange objects

The next step is to arrange the objects in the order your route occurs. This means which property will be visited first and in what order the meters will be visited within that property.

Image 2. In this stage of planning your route you get to arrange the objects, properties and meters, by dragging them up or down in the list. 

Properties are arranged by holding the two dashes to the right and dragging the property upwards or downwards in the list. The one at the top of the list will be visited first in the route.

Meters are arranged by first clicking into the property. Then arrange the meters in the same way as properties, dragging them up or down in the list. The one at the top of the list will be visited first in the route.

Clicking the eye icon will hide the item. (Undo? Bring them back?)

Name and save

Name and then save your route. It will now be waiting for you the next time you log in to Mestro Input. You can access your route either by choosing Walk route when you first log in or by clicking My Routes at the bottom of the window.
