IoTWorX Configuration in Workbench

Once your IoT device has been provisioned in the IoT Hub in your selected cloud service (e.g. Azure portal), you can then manage that device in the Workbench.

 

To Configure Your IoT Device in the Workbench

  1. Open the Workbench then click on the New Project button in the Project Tools section of the Project ribbon, then on the IoT Project Wizard selection, as shown below.

Note that Azure Blob Storage is used to store the IoT Devices configuration file. IoT devices will download the file from this location when configuration updates are required.

 

Note: Once the form is submitted, the procedure will try to retrieve all the available IoT devices and the configuration for each one of them. This may take several seconds due to the publisher's settings.

 

Once you have completed your settings, click OK.

  1. Your added existing or new IoT subscriber connection(s) will make some changes to the Project Explorer in the Workbench. The new IoT Project(s) will appear. Double-click on an added IoT Project node in order to make any changes to its properties, shown below.
