Activation

To activate Gateway A, follow the instructions in the wizard that appears after selecting Gateway A in the selection window. The wizard is divided into three steps:

1. Gateway

In this step, you provide basic information about the gateway you want to activate:

Name:

  • Enter a unique name to identify the gateway within the platform. This name will not be transferred to other systems and can be changed at any time after activation.

Gateway Type:

  • Select the model or article number of the gateway you want to activate. This information can be found on both the front and back of the device.

Country:

  • Specify the country where the gateway will be operated. This information does not affect functionality, even if the location is changed later.
Note: Ensure that the gateway has a valid radio approval for the selected country. This information can be found in the device’s datasheet.

IMEI:

  • Enter the 15-digit IMEI number of the gateway. This unique identification number is printed on the top and back of the device.
Important: Make sure to enter the IMEI number correctly, as it is mandatory for activation.

After filling in all the required fields, click “Next” to proceed to the next step, Cloud Instance.

2. Cloud Instance

Now, you will define where the gateway should send its data by selecting a Cloud Instance.

Overview of Cloud Instances:

  • All Cloud Instances assigned to your customer number will be displayed. Review the list and select the Cloud Instance you want to use.

No Cloud Instance visible?

  • If no instance is displayed, you may not have created one yet. You can easily create a new instance:
    • Click the “Add Instance” button and follow the instructions to create a new instance.
Note: A reference to a separate guide for creating a Cloud Instance will be provided here.

Confirm and Proceed:

After selecting the correct Cloud Instance, click “Next” to save the settings and proceed to the next step.

Expected Instance missing?
