Connecting to a device using Secure ION
Use ION software to connect to a device using Secure ION.
If you are using ION Setup in Network mode or Power Monitoring Expert, configure the device to use the Secure ION programmed IP port.
Prerequisites:
Your IT infrastructure must be configured to allow the traffic on the Secure ION port to pass.
To connect to a device using Secure ION:
- In Device Properties, set the IP Port to the Secure ION port:
- Click OK.
NOTE: If you connect to a device in ION Setup using Single ION Device mode, ION Setup will try to connect to the Secure ION port automatically. If the defined port isn’t available on your network, the device will connect using ION over TCP. You can use ION software to configure devices to override the default connection process, see Setting the ION protocol connection and port number for details.
