Setting up Analogue Node (BEAM-AN-S1)
This page provides information on setting up a Analogue Node to work with the offline
Ackcio Beam gateway.
Installation
The Nodes can be directly affixed to a flat surface using M4 screws. However, for more
sophisticated mounting scenarios, we recommend using the node bracket. The node bracket
can be used to easily mount the node on flat surfaces, on pipes using U-bolts or cable-ties, or
in other complicated settings.
If you are using the bracket, first fix the node device to the bracket using M4 screws and nuts
as shown below.
