Understanding the K2 Box LED Indicators: A Comprehensive Guide for Effective Monitoring

Discover the meaning of the LEDs on the K2 enclosure for effective monitoring. Learn how to interpret the colors and optimize your industrial equipment.

Introduction

The K2 IoT is an essential device for collecting and transmitting your machines' data to the K2 App. The RGB (red, green, blue) LED on the IoT indicates the connection status of the IoT to the K2 App, allowing you to quickly and easily verify if your data is being transmitted correctly. For factories without a reliable wireless network, the IoT can be provided in a wired version via an Ethernet connectivity module.

This comprehensive guide will help you understand the meaning of the different colors displayed by the LED, ensuring effective monitoring of your system.

Interpreting the Colors of the K2 IoT LED

The LED on the K2 IoT can display three main colors: red, green, and purple. Each of these colors indicates a specific state of the IoT's connection.

Red

Meaning: The K2 IoT is powered but cannot connect to the internet network.

Actions:

  • Check that your Wi-Fi network is functioning properly.
  • Ensure that the IoT is within Wi-Fi signal range.
  • Restart your Wi-Fi router or access point.

Note: In case of a persistent red LED, it is recommended to check your internet network's firewall settings to ensure they are not blocking the IoT's connection.

Green

Meaning: The internet network connection is operational, but the connection to the K2 App is not stable.

Actions:

  • Verify that your K2 App login credentials are correct.
  • Ensure that your subscription to the K2 App is still valid.
  • Restart the K2 IoT to attempt reconnection.

Purple

Meaning: The connection to both the internet network and the K2 App is operational.

Actions:

  • No action necessary. The IoT is functioning normally, and data is being transmitted correctly.

Actions to Take if You Experience Issues with the RGB LED

If you encounter issues indicated by the K2 IoT's LED, here are the recommended steps to follow:

  1. Check the Internet Connection: Ensure that your internet connection is working properly.
  2. Restart the K2 IoT: Unplug the IoT, wait a few seconds, then plug it back in.
  3. Verify Connection Settings: Confirm that the Wi-Fi network and K2 App connection information are correct.
  4. Consult Online Resources: Check the documentation or FAQ on the K2 App website for additional solutions.
  5. Contact Intelligence Industrielle Customer Service: If the problem persists, please to contact customer service for further assistance or open a ticket directly into K2 App.

Important Additional Information about the K2 IoT

The Importance of Proactive Monitoring

It is essential to regularly monitor the status of the K2 IoT's LED to ensure the system is functioning correctly.

Best Practice: Check the LED status when the machine appears to have a different status than what is displayed in the K2 App. This allows you to quickly detect any malfunction and take the necessary measures to address it.

Conclusion

By following these guidelines, you can ensure optimal use of your K2 IoT and guarantee effective monitoring of your machines with the K2 App. Feel free to consult Intelligence Industrielle support for any further questions or assistance.
