Now that you have your personal account, you are ready to Cloud enable your machine. There are 2 methods to do so:

• Use our hardware solution, one of our edge gateways, to separate the machine from the company network and expand the entire machine with IXON's features.
• Use our software-only solution, the IXagent, to integrate directly into your machine's hardware and expand that specific component with IXON's features.

Edge gateway

As mentioned, an edge gateway separates the machine from the company network and enables you to remotely access every machine component that you connect to it. More information about our edge gateways can be found here.

To configure your edge gateway:

• Connect your edge gateway to the IXON Cloud

Note that you can later change the primary connection type (wired, wireless, cellular) and even add the unused connection types as a backup connection, using failover.

The IXagent

As mentioned, the IXagent is integrated directly into your machine's hardware and enables you to remotely access only that specific machine component. More information about the IXagent can be found here.
