Application

FAQ

Q.How can I get started with EdgeBox?

Edgeboxes, pre- with Debian Buster, can be powered up with HDMI and ethernet for first boot. Also you can access it remotely with SSH for initial configuration without a monitor. Once set up, switch to VNC for a graphical interface.

Q.What kinds of 4G and LoRa® modules can I use?

You can input Quectel EC20/EC25 module for 4G LTE usage.

You can use Seeed WM1302 module for LoRaWAN® applications.

Q.Can I use 4G and LoRa® at the same time?

Sorry, this box does not support 4G and LoRa® use at the same time.

Q.How to reflash OS? 

Dual Gigabit Ethernet Carrier BoardThe Edge box is an open-source hardware solution for industries. It supports protocols such as RS485, RS282 Modbus, Ethernet/IP, TCP/IP, and wireless networks. Therefore, you can interact with the external world using third-party software such as Codesys, Node-RED, N3uron, and Ignition Edge, as well as cloud services like AWS and Azure.
