Activate an Appliance

The device configuration for an appliance must be deployed before the appliance can be activated. You can deploy a site using Titan Portal. You must use the activation method chosen at deployment to activate the device. To change an appliance's activation method, see Change Activation Method. For more information on create a site and deploy the configuration, see Create a Site and Deploy a Device Configuration.

Note: You must activate both devices in an HA pair. Activate each one separately.

The following video describes how to activate a device using mobile application.

 

Change Activation Method

Activation methods are associated with device configurations and you choose a method at the time you deploy the configuration. After deployment, you can still change the activation method from Versable to WiFi or WiFi to Versable. To change the method between GZTP and another method, you need to undeploy and then redeploy the configuration. You can undeploy using Titan Portal, see Undeploy a Device Configuration in the Titan Portal documentation.

To change the activation method for an appliance:

  1. Make sure the device you wish to activate is the current device. See Change Current Site and Device.
  2. Tap the Mobile_Hamburger_icon_small.png Hamburger icon.
  3. Tap Activation Method.

    Mobil_Hamburger_Menu.png
     
  4. Tap the new activation method, then tap continue.

    Mobile_select_activation_method.png

Enter Serial Number

The serial number is printed on the appliance. When you replace an appliance, you should update the site information with the serial number from the new appliance. 

  1. Make sure the device with the serial number is the current device. See Change Current Site and Device.
  2. Tap the Mobile_Hamburger_icon_small.png Hamburger icon to display the current site. Information for the site appliance will display. For HA sites, two appliances will display.

    enter-serial-number.png

    Note: If you mistype the serial number or make any mistakes, you must undeploy the device configuration and redeploy it. You cannot undeploy a configuration using Titan Mobile, use Titan Portal instead. See Manage Device License Inventory in the Titan Portal documentation.

Activate Using Versable

Titan Mobile uses the Versable capabilities of your phone during the Versable activation process. Make sure that Versable is enabled on your phone. The appliance must also establish an internet connection during activation, so either connect WAN port0 to the internet or ensure that the SIM is inserted for LTE internet connectivity.

To activate an appliance using Versable:

  1.  Put your phone into Versable discovery mode so it can form a pair with the Versa appliance you are activating. Ensure that the appliance is powered on.
  2. Wait while your phone discovers your Versa appliances.


    Mobile_bluetooth_establish_connection_02.png

    Mobile_bluetooth_device_is_ready_10.png

Activate Using WiFi

Titan Mobile uses a local SSID advertised by your Versa appliance for WiFi activation. Only device models with WiFi capabilities support WiFi activation. Your phone must be physically close enough to the appliance to connect to this SSID. The appliance must also establish an internet connection during activation, so either connect WAN port 0 to the internet or ensure that the SIM is inserted for LTE internet connectivity. The device configuration must be deployed from Titan Portal before you can activate an appliance. 

To activate an appliance using WiFi:

  1. Make sure the device you wish to activate is the current device. See Change Current Site and Device. When you select a deployed device as the current device, Titan Mobile automatically displays the Activate Device screen.

    Mobile_WiFi_Activation_Tap_Activate_03.png
     
  2. Tap Activate Device to begin activation.

    Mobile_WiFi_Activation_Automatic_04.png

Activate Using GZTP

You can remotely activate an appliance using GZTP from Titan Mobile. The appliance serial number must be configured and the configuration deployed from Titan Portal before activation. See Enter Serial Number. The appliance must also establish an internet connection during activation, so either WAN port0 must be connected to the internet or the SIM card must be inserted for LTE internet connectivity.

To activate an appliance using GZTP:

  1. Make sure the device you wish to activate is the current device. See Change Current Site and Device. When you select a deployed device as the current device, Titan Mobile automatically displays the Activate Device screen.

    Mobile_WiFi_Activation_Tap_Activate_03.png
