Device ID

Each Silvanet Border Gateway has its own unique Device ID (also referred to as Serial ID). It is provided as a unique text string as well as a QR Code printed on a label attached to the Border Gateway.

Register Device ID

To register the Border Gateway's Device ID, scan the QR Code (for Gen 2) or use NFC (for Gen 3).

  1. In the Silvanet Deployment app, select a Site.

  1. In the list of devices that appears, select a Border Gateway. Alternately, select Show Devices on Map.

  1. On the map that appears, tap Register Device. The blue dot on the map shows your current location.

Finding the deployment location

In the figure above, the Border Gateway is 120 m away from the user. Use this map to move towards the deployment location.

  1. If you tapped Show Devices on Map, the maps shows on overview of your Site. Your location is indicated by a blue dot.

  1. Once the deployment location is found, register the Device ID.

  2. Use the Deployment app to scan the device's QR Code, which is attached to the back of the Border Gateway.

QR Code not scannable?

If the QR Code cannot be scanned, manually enter the Device ID which is found as a text string next to the QR Code.

  1. The Deployment app automatically fills in the Gateway's latitude and longitude using the Smartphone's GPS location.
