Applies to app version 1.12.x or later on Android

IBSS Inspire can be configured in 2 ways:

  • Automatically via the Device Provisioning Service (DPS)
  • Manually by stepping through configuration pages

This article talks through the DPS method. 
Note: The Inspire app must first be installed onto the device from the App Store or Play Store.

Device Provisioning Service

Using the newly introduced device provisioning service, onboarding Inspire is very straight forward provided the following dependencies have been issued to ICONICS. 

  • The MAC address of each device and the space that the device serves.
  • The external IP address of the site/location.

When these have been provided, they will be added to the DPS service to which the Inspire app will connect. On start-up, the Inspire app will first attempt to connect to the DPS as shown below.

Once connected and a valid MAC address is found, Inspire will be given the specific customer deployment information.

On successful connection to the customer specific deployment, Inspire will then configure the app.

Once completed, Inspire will display a final congratulations page as shown below. Tapping run application will start the application running in the configured mode.
