Provisioning - Grillo One

Provisioning connects your Grillo One sensor to your Grillo Cloud account, enabling remote monitoring and configuration.

Prerequisites

Before provisioning, ensure you have:

  • A Grillo Cloud account at cloud.grillo.io
  • An organization created in the dashboard
  • A network created within your organization
  • Your sensor connected to the internet (WiFi or Ethernet)
  • Your sensor's Device ID (found on sticker on device or packaging)

Provisioning methods

The fastest way to provision your sensor:

  1. Open the Grillo Cloud dashboard

  2. Navigate to your network

    • Select your organization
    • Select the network where you want to add the sensor
  3. Click "Add Sensor"

    • Look for the add/plus button in the sensors section
  4. Scan QR code

    • Use your phone's camera or the dashboard's scanner
    • Scan the QR code on the bottom of your sensor
  5. Confirm registration

    • Verify the Device ID matches your sensor
    • Click "Register" or "Confirm"
  6. Wait for connection

    • The sensor will connect to your network within 1-2 minutes
    • Status will change from "Pending" to "Online"

Method 2: Manual entry

If QR scanning isn't available:

  1. Open the Grillo Cloud dashboard

  2. Navigate to your network

    • Select your organization and network
  3. Click "Add Sensor"

    • Choose "Manual entry" option
  4. Enter sensor details

    • Device ID (from sticker on device or packaging)
    • Device type: Grillo One
  5. Complete registration

    • Click "Register"
    • Wait for sensor to appear online

After provisioning

Once your sensor is provisioned and online:

1. Verify data streaming

  • Check the sensor's detail page in the dashboard
  • You should see real-time or recent data indicators
  • Waveform preview may be available

2. Configure sensor settings

Set important metadata:

  • Station name - FDSN-compatible station code
  • Location - Coordinates (latitude, longitude)
  • Elevation - Height above sea level
  • Site description - Notes about the installation

3. Verify on map

  • Navigate to the map view
  • Your sensor should appear at its configured location
  • Click to verify details

OnlineSensor connected and streaming data
OfflineSensor registered but not currently connected
ErrorConfiguration or connection issue

Troubleshooting

Sensor stays "Pending"

  1. Verify the sensor has power (LED is on)
  2. Check network connectivity
  3. Ensure firewall allows outbound connections
  4. Try restarting the sensor (unplug and replug power)

Wrong network

If you accidentally added the sensor to the wrong network:

  1. Remove the sensor from the current network
  2. Re-add it to the correct network using the same process

Device ID not recognized

  1. Verify you're entering the correct Device ID from the sticker
  2. Check for typos (0 vs O, 1 vs l)
  3. Contact support if the sensor isn't in the system

Deprovisioning

To remove a sensor from your network:

  1. Navigate to the sensor in the dashboard
  2. Open sensor settings
  3. Click "Remove" or "Delete"
  4. Confirm the action
warning

Deprovisioning removes the sensor from your network but does not factory reset the device. The sensor's network configuration (WiFi credentials) will remain intact.

Re-provisioning WiFi

If your WiFi credentials change or become invalid:

  • The sensor automatically detects invalid credentials
  • It clears the stored WiFi configuration
  • The device re-enters provisioning mode (Network LED pulses blue)
  • Follow the WiFi setup steps to reconfigure
Ethernet bypass

You can skip WiFi provisioning at any time by plugging in an Ethernet cable. The sensor will automatically use the wired connection instead.

Factory reset

To completely reset a sensor and clear all configuration:

  1. Disconnect the power adapter
  2. Connect a USB-C cable to the sensor
  3. Power cycle the device by disconnecting and reconnecting the USB-C cable
  4. The sensor will restart in setup mode

Next steps

With your sensor provisioned:

  1. Configure sensor settings
  2. Monitor sensor status
  3. Set up additional sensors
