Add device at connection creates a clone?

I just want to clarify…I created a template called SWIRLTec_V2 on the console and phone app. When you co to connect to the internet via the app it recreates a clone of the dive with a slightly different name SWIRLTec_V2 C2E95, and it is this device which is effectively online. Is this normal?

I think you’re getting confused between templates and devices.
The C2E95 is generated from the chip ID of the device, so that each device created from the template is uniquely identified.

Oh ok, so I could have 2 devices using the 1 template?
