Remove a Satellite from QUE

By removing a Satellite you effectively delete it from QUE and prevent its associated machine from accessing any of your QUE data. While you can remove a Satellite using the QUE Dash it is best practice to remove it by using Templater's QUE Configuration dialog.

WARNING  When you remove a Satellite, all Jobs assigned to that Satellite will not be processed until they are reassigned to a different, authorized Satellite.

Use Templater to remove a Satellite

Follow these steps to remove a Satellite using Templater:

  1. In Templater's main panel, click Preferences.

  2. In the Templater Preferences dialog, in the Data Source group, click QUE Configuration.

    NOTE  Templater must have authorization to access your QUE account before you can open the QUE Configuration dialog.

  3. In the Machine Profile pane, click Load Profile. Wait for Templater to inspect the machine to generate a current profile. During this process, Templater attempts to retrieve any Satellite data associated with the machine's profile from QUE. Successfully retrieved Satellite data is displayed in the QUE Satellite Information pane.
  4. In the Machine Profile pane, click Remove from QUE. Confirm you want to remove the Satellite from QUE.
    Upon confirming, the Satellite is deleted from QUE and the machine can no longer access any of its data until it is added as a Satellite again.

Use QUE Dash to remove a Satellite

You can remove a Satellite using the QUE Dash if you can't access the machine associated with the Satellite.

WARNING   When you remove the Satellite using the QUE Dash, you will need to clear the associated machine's profile using Templater before you can re-add the machine as a Satellite. See Managing and Troubleshooting QUE Satellites for more information.

Follow these steps to remove a Satellite using the QUE Dash

  1. Select the Satellites view from the main navigation.
  2. Expand the Satellite you want to remove.
  3. Click the Delete icon.
  4. Confirm the Satellite removal.
    Upon confirming, the Satellite is deleted from QUE and its associated machine can no longer access its data.
