# Add Station

A [**station** ](/smart-infrastructure/main-tabs-in-smart-infrastructure-service/stations.md)is a particular area where some particular [**devices**](/smart-infrastructure/main-tabs-in-smart-infrastructure-service/device-manager.md) are run by a particular [**controller**](/smart-infrastructure/smart-infrastructure-service-quick-start/add-controller.md). 

To add a new station to your infrastructure go to the [**Stations**](/smart-infrastructure/main-tabs-in-smart-infrastructure-service/stations.md) menu and click on the **Add Station** button.
