Configure MQTT for a device

The MQTT (Message Queuing Telemetry Transport) messaging protocol can be configured for a Connect Sensor device. You can manually configure MQTT for a Connect Sensor device, or create an MQTT configuration for a device group that can be applied to any Connect Sensor device in the group.

The MQTT device group configurations are created in the Administration dashboard in Digi Axess. MQTT is configured for a Connect Sensor device from the device's web UI.

Before you begin

• To use the MQTT feature, you must have Connect Sensor XRT-M firmware version 4.2.1.26 or above installed on the Connect Sensor. You can review the current firmware version installed on the device and update the firmware if needed.
