Using Predix Edge Technician Console to Enroll Devices with Predix Cloud

Before you begin

You must install Predix Edge Technician Console.

About this task

For devices running Edge, with connectivity to Predix cloud, you can use the Predix Edge Technician Console to configure the device with the Predix Edge Manager certificate enrollment URL, device ID, and shared secret, so it can communicate with the cloud environment at startup and obtain its own certificate and credentials.

Procedure

  1. Sign into Predix Edge Technician Console.
  2. In the Device Status page, click Enroll.
  3. In the Enroll Device dialog box, enter the following information:
    • Device ID – Identifies the device with Predix Edge OS. The device ID you enter must match the device ID assigned when the device was added to Edge Manager by the administrator.
    • Shared Secret – Enter the shared secret that was entered with the device was added to Edge Manager.
    • Certificate Enrollment URL – URL of the Predix Edge Manager tenant. You can find the correct certificate enrollment URL in the Edge Manager Settings page.
  4. Click Enroll.
    A green banner displays at the top of the Device Status screen confirming enrollment was successful and the device status displays "enrolled."

    In Edge Manager, the device status displays "online" (this may take a moment).
