Frequently Asked Questions

What does Device Manager offer?

Device Manager is InHand Networks’ cloud platform for M2M / IoT device management — a visualization web portal for managing distributed routers and gateways without on-site visits. Highlights from the V5.1 spec:

Portal URLiot.inhandnetworks.com
ArchitectureMQTT-based, suitable for low-bandwidth and high-latency sites
Supported InHand productsIR200, IR300, IR600, IR900, CR202, IG500, IG900, VG710, VG814 series
SecurityCA authentication, data encryption, user verification, access limit

Function pillars: device management (information, configuration, firmware, remote web access, edge computing, logs); device monitoring (GIS map, dashboards, task tracking, event alerts, grouping); system management (users, authorization, system info, system settings, logs).

Per the Device Manager User Manual, enrollment is device-GUI-initiated: register an account → configure the router/gateway on its web GUI → enable management. The device pushes itself to the cloud automatically.

1. Register an account at https://iot.inhandnetworks.com/ (click Register Account, enter your email, submit, activate via the verification email).

2. Configure the device’s web GUI to connect it to Device Manager. The menu path varies by device family:

Device familyWeb GUI pathSettings
IR300 / IR600Services > Device ManagerService Type = Device Manager; Server = iot.inhandnetworks.com; Registered Account = your DM email
IR900 / VG710Administration > Device ManagerService Type = Device Manager; Server Address = iot.inhandnetworks.com; Registered Account = your DM email
IG500 / IG900System > InHand Cloud (InHand Device Manager tab)Server Address = iot.inhandnetworks.com; Registered Account = your DM email

Click Apply & Save. When the on-device status shows Connected / Online, the device has reached Device Manager and a gateway record is automatically added to the Gateways page.

Optional — manual add before the device comes online. Choose Gateways → + in the portal, enter a Gateway Name and the device’s Serial Number (visible under Administration > System > Status, or on the nameplate). The record starts as Offline and switches to Online once the device-side configuration above completes.

> Note: GUI paths are per the user manual; actual page layout may vary with firmware version.

Once a device is connected to Device Manager, you can manage it without an on-site visit:

FeatureDescription
Remote WEB AccessOpen the device’s local web GUI remotely through the portal — modify the on-device configuration as if you were on-site
Configuration UpdateBatch configuration dispatch with dispatch-task management
Firmware UpgradeBatch firmware upgrade with upgrade-task management
Remote Control CommandsRemote reboot, factory reset, and per-device control actions
Edge ComputingSDK and APP management in the cloud (for supported devices)
View LogsView device logs for troubleshooting

The Remote WEB Access feature is the key tool for ad-hoc on-device changes — instead of dispatching an engineer, you click into the portal and the device’s full web GUI opens through Device Manager.
