Connecting to the device through the cloud:
• Select the “Cloud” option in the “Connection type” menu.
• If you have already registered the device in the "Device register" menu, select the device
you want to connect to from the "Device Name" drop-down menu. Otherwise, you can
either enter the data needed for connecting, in the corresponding fields, which will be
recorded automatically in the device register using the entered device ID as the device
name, when you start connecting to the device. For this, select the server from the “Cloud”
drop-down menu, enter the identifier of the device in the “Device ID” field, and the device
password in the “Device password” field.
Entering the device password.
o Super administrator permission: full access to all settings. (Default password: 1234).
o Administrator permission: can only access settings enabled by the superadmin.
You can configure the admin password separately (see chapter “Connection type”).
o Connecting remotely without a password is not possible.
• If cloud usage is enabled in the settings of the given device, the device keeps continuous
connection with the cloud server. In this case skip the SMS sending process mentioned
below. Cloud usage can be enabled in the “General” settings menu. If cloud usage is
disabled, the device will not keep continuous connection with the cloud, it will only connect
upon request. Therefore, if this is the case, before trying to connect remotely to the device,
the request for connecting to the server should be sent by SMS to the phone number of the
SIM card installed into the device. The device accepts the request for connecting to the
cloud server from any phone number if the valid device password is specified in the
message. For this, the device password should be added in the message using the “PWD”
parameter, as specified below. Commands sent with a missing device password or a wrong
password, will be ignored by the device and it will not send any reply to these numbers.
The request command for connecting to the server is: CONNECT,PWD=device password#
PWD: the device password can be specified using this parameter. The superadmin and admin
passwords are both accepted (default superadmin password: 1234).
Example on the usage of the command mentioned above: CONNECT,PWD=1234#
Send the mentioned request command for connecting to the cloud by SMS to the phone number
of the SIM card installed in the device and wait for the device’s reply. As soon as the device
successfully connects to the cloud, it will send the following reply:
Connected to (IP address:port number)
ID=(device identifier)
If cloud usage is disabled in the device settings, the device remains connected to the cloud
for 10 minutes only and thereafter in case of inactivity it disconnects automatically. Therefore, you
have 10 minutes to connect to the device after it sends the reply message.
If you receive no message from the device within 1 or 2 minutes, please make sure that the
settings are correct and that the circumstances of sending the request for connecting satisfy the
conditions mentioned above.
