Novice question - More than one Thing

I'm able to connect a single Thing(Edge) to Thingworx..which works ok.

It is a Thing which is based of a ThingTemplate, which is based of a RemoteThing.

What I'm trying to figure out is how my Edge gets associated with the Thing I created. I got another similar Edge online, with a different Application Key, and it started interfering with the first Edge on ThingWorx.

Any insight into this.Also .. do I need a different application key for each Edge I add?

Gerard, you can use the 'autobind' property in the config.json to automatically bind to a specific Thing. You can also modify the config.lua and set identifiers (you would need to run the luaScriptResource for this), so that they would be unique.

Aanjan.. I'm using the C-SDK. I believe you are talking about the EMS?

I think I figured it out. There are bind API's in the CSDK. Let me check and get back.
