Configure the Digi Axess server for Connect Sensor

You can configure the Digi Axess and NTP servers, and specify a group ID in the Digi Axess Service Configuration page.

Digi Axess server

The URLs for the Digi Axess and the NTP servers are defined during the initial set up, and should not be changed. The server name depends on the release in which the device was configured.

WARNING! Any changes made to the Digi Axess Server URL configuration may cause the device to no longer connect with Digi Axess. Digi recommends making changes to this section only when you have physical access to the device.

NTP server

The Connect Sensor retrieves and synchronizes to the time provided by an NTP server.

Digi Axess Group ID

You can also define the Digi Axess group ID. The Cloud Group ID binds all endpoints having the same Cloud ID into a single cloud for management and display purposes. This field is required for all Digi Axess services.

To configure servers and the group ID:

  1. Log into the Connect Sensor web UI on Digi Axess.

  2. In the Services section, click Digi Axess Services. The Digi Axess Services page displays.

  3. Click Server Configuration. The Server Configuration page displays.

  4. Click Edit to allow changes to be made to the page.

  5. Update the Digi Axess and the NTP servers.

    • Digi Axess Server: In the Digi Axess Server field, enter the URL of the Digi Axess server that this device should connect to.

    • NTP Server: In the NTP Server field, enter the URL of the NTP server to which the Connect Sensor connects to synchronize time.

    • Reset both servers to factory defaults: If you want to reset both the Digi Axess and the NTP server to the factory default URLs, click Reset Server Config.

  6. In the Cloud Group ID field, enter the ID for the Digi Axess sub-group ID for the device.

  7. Click Update to save your changes. A confirmation dialog displays.

  8. Click OK to complete the change.
