Complete the following steps to configure and register your MK.IO Beam device.

Install the ISO

See Install the ISO.

Set control IP address

  1. Log in to the terminal with the default credentials.
  2. Type control-wizard and press Enter to configure the Control interface. You can also configure an HTTP proxy here if one is needed to reach MK.IO.

Connect to the web user interface

  1. In a web browser, go to http://<Control-IP-Address>, where <Control-IP-Address> is the control IP address set in the previous step.
  2. Enter the default username and password on the login page.

The Home page displays.

Configure the network

See Network Configuration.

Set at least one DNS server. DNS is required for connection to MK.IO unless you have configured an HTTP proxy.

For the MK.IO connection requirements and device-management guides, see Connect MK.IO Beam to MK.IO.

Configure and activate time synchronization

See How to configure the system clock.

Configure a time source and make it active.

Register the MK.IO Beam device with MK.IO

See device onboarding.

Registration status persists over an upgrade but does not persist if the device is re-imaged.

Upgrade to the latest software version

See updating device software.
