The Kontakt.io Panel cloud platform is our legacy platform. Kio Cloud is our current, supported platform that delivers the latest Kontakt.io features and capabilities.
If you have questions or need assistance to migrate to Kio Cloud, submit a request to our support team and we'll get you in touch with the right person.
When your Kontakt.io order arrives at your facility, you'll need to:
-
Add the order's devices to your Kio Cloud account. You'll provide your Kontakt.io Order ID, which is a one-time use code.
If you don't have a Kio Cloud account, you'll need to create one first.
Set up your Kio Cloud Smart Location - required for location and occupancy based services.
Set up and install your Kontakt.io devices. This step does vary by each device model.
When all steps are complete, you'll be ready to start your Kontakt.io IoT journey!
