Wake the Connect Sensor and connect to the device from the Digi Axess Mobile app

You can use the Digi Axess Mobile app to quickly connect to the Connect Sensor devices near you that are awake. Once a device is connected to the app, you can verify that the sensors connected to the device are working as expected.

Before you begin

• Make sure that the Digi Axess Mobile app is installed on your phone.

• The mobile app service must be enabled on the Connect Sensor.

• To be able to wake the Connect Sensor with a magnet you must physically be near enough to the device to touch it.

To wake the device and connect to the device from the Digi Axess Mobile app:

1. Wake the Connect Sensor XRT-M.

   1. If the Connect Sensor XRT-M is in a NEMA enclosure, open the enclosure.

   2. Locate the magnet sensor sticker on the side of the device.

      

   3. Swipe a magnet across the magnet sensor sticker to wake the device.

   4. The LED on the edge of the SIM card slot shows the status of the device. When it is awake, the LED next to the SIM card slot blinks blue.

2. Open the Digi Axess Mobile app on your phone. The Manage Devices screen displays.

3. Click Connect via Bluetooth. The Locating Nearby Devices graphic displays in the Find Device page while the app searches for Connect Sensor devices.

5. Click on a device in the list. The Device Information page displays a list of the sensors connected to the Connect Sensor.

6. Click on the name of a sensor in the Select a Sensor to Read Data section. The data from that sensor displays on the app screen. Repeat this step for any other sensor in the list.

7. When your review is complete, return to the Manage Devices page.
