When you select a node in the Nodes View (or in the Peripherals View), the Node Inspector sidebar panel displays properties and information about the currently selected node. For example, the following image shows information for the itm node.
The Node Inspector groups the properties in a series of areas, described in the following table.
| Section | Description |
|---|---|
| Properties | Includes the list of properties for the selected node. Hovering with the mouse cursor over the property name will display a tooltip with information about the property. You can use the Add Property button at the heading level to add a property from a dedicated window. The list of options in the window entries is populated from the Zephyr and nRF Connect SDK devicetree type YAML files. |
| Pins | Includes the list of pins for the selected node. Use the buttons next to the pin drop-down menu to configure the behavior of the chosen pin. These buttons correspond to the ones displayed in the Pin Overview in the Pins View. |
| Advanced | Includes the list of advanced properties for the selected node. |
| Labels | Includes the list of labels. The labels are unique, human-readable identifiers of the node. You can add custom labels using the Add Label button, located at the heading level. |
| Description | Includes the help description for the selected node. The description is taken automatically from the devicetree source files. You can use the Visit Online Documentation button at the heading level to open and read the source documentation for the node, either in the Zephyr SDK documentation or in the Devicetree specification. |
