Before starting detailed troubleshooting, please make sure always to try these steps first:
Check for service disruptions or planned maintenance on Disruptive Technologies' (DT) status page
Restart the Cloud Connector (CCON) by removing it from the power outlet, re-insert after 30 seconds, and check if it comes online within 5 minutes
No lights on the front display
If there are no lights on the display, it indicates that the Cloud Connector (CCON) is not receiving power.
Possible cause | Corrective action |
Ethernet cable is not connected to a suitable power source |
|
A defective power outlet |
|
A defective Ethernet cable |
|
A defective PoE-injector |
|
No cellular connection
The Cloud Connector (CCON) automatically connects to the DT Cloud when connected to power, showing a stable white cloud on the front. If a red cloud or no cloud appears, it can be due to the following reasons:
Possible cause | Corrective action |
The Cloud Connector (CCON) is booting up |
|
Lack of cellular coverage at the location |
|
Cloud Connector (CCON) does not support cellular connections |
|
Cloud Connector (CCON) is mounted in an enclosed space |
|
A temporary disruption in local infrastructure, maintenance of cell towers, etc. |
|
A service disruption |
|
Weak cellular connection
If no signal indicator dots are shown when connected on cellular, the signal quality is below 20%, possibly leading to an unstable cellular connection and data loss.
Make sure to follow the guidelines for installing Cloud Connectors (CCON). If the low signal quality continues, we suggest connecting the Cloud Connector (CCON) through Ethernet.
The signal can increase by mounting the Cloud Connector (CCON) near the outer walls of the building, ideally near windows.
If you have a Cloud Connector (CCON) 2G/3G, replacing it with a 4G model can significantly improve signal quality.
No Ethernet connection
The Cloud Connector (CCON) automatically connects to the Cloud when connected to Ethernet, showing a stable white cloud on the front. If a red cloud or no cloud appears, it can be due to the following reasons:
Possible cause | Corrective action |
The Cloud Connector (CCON) is booting up |
|
Network rules block the Cloud Connector (CCON) from connecting to the internet |
|
No DHCP service |
|
The network is not connected to the Internet |
|
A defective Ethernet cable |
|
A service disruption |
