Once you've registered your IXON edge gateway to the IXON Cloud, connected your Sigmatek PLC to one of the LAN ports, and connected your KEB inverter to the Sigmatek PLC through a VARAN cable, you're ready to remotely access it.

If you've already followed the steps in this article and are unable to connect, see instead Can't connect to your machine - Issues and solutions.

1. LAN Source NAT needs to be disabled. It's on by default in the edge gateway's settings, but needs to be disabled for you to connect to your KEB inverter.
   • Check your Sigmatek PLC's network settings first and make sure that the edge gateway's LAN IP address is entered as the PLC's default gateway.
   • Once that is done, turn off LAN Source NAT in the edge gateway's settings at Fleet Manager > Devices > Click on your device name > Network > LAN.
2. Set up a VPN connection to your edge gateway.

You can now use your KEB COMBIVIS software to connect to your KEB inverter.

3. Connect to your KEB inverter as you normally do.
