edinn Platform: User Guide

In this section we explain how to easily set up your eHUB and get started with the installation of edinn.

1. Install the eHUB and the eBOXes:

The eHUB device can be safely installed:

• Either on the plant’s shop floor.
• Or in the plant’s servers’ room.

WARNINGS:

• Both of these options need to ensure a continuous power supply and internet connection.
• The eHUB must always be connected to the same ethernet network as the eBOXes.

2. Connect the eHUB device:

• To the power supply.
• To the production data network, where the eBOXes are connected, using an RJ45 cable.
• To the offices data network, where there is internet access, using an RJ45 cable.

NOTES:

• Either connector from the eHUB can be used for the production and the offices data networks.
• For more relevant information on connectivity, please read “Power supply”, “Ethernet Data Network” section here in the Checklist.

1. Connect one or more eBOXes: for information on this topic read the Monitoring, Using eBOX help documents.
2. Reserve fixed IPs and inform edinn:
1. Reserve fixed IPs for each eBOX (sold together with the eHUB or separately).
