Use the Rename panel to change the name of a specific collector or to rename types of collectors to their respective ID with an optional prefix.

Note:A second version of the Rename panel exists in many modules, such as the Safety module or the Optimization module.  These alternate panels are analogous to the "main" Rename panel, except that the only allow you to rename entities appropriate to the module.  In contrast, the main Rename panel lets you rename any entity at all.
