From Command line

From Squish’s bin directory execute the following for each device and app combination:
squishserver --config addAttachableAUT <DeviceAppName> <IPAddress>:<Port>

Modify script to get Mapped AUT from environment variable

var device = OS.getenv("TEST_DEVICE");
attachToApplication(device);
