    Article summary

    Device updates leverage a cloud-to-device control plane with direct editing within Factory CONNECT.

    Factory CONNECT automatically saves configuration updates, thereby eliminating data loss concerns. If needed, you can revert to the original device configuration.

    Revision History

    Factory CONNECT includes the ability to maintain a detailed history of all revisions made to configuration for easy tracking of changes over time, including who made the changes and when. Compare the current version of their configuration with previous versions to identify differences and understand the evolution of their work. To access the revision history, navigate the configuration Options -> Revision History.

    You can also revert to a previous version by selecting the “Restore” action.

    Pre-Deployment Compare

    The configuration update workflow has configuration comparisons built in. Using the Compare feature, you can validate changes before deployment to ensure a clear understanding of modifications and enhance connection stability and reliability.

    Hash Collision Detection

    Factory CONNECT detects and prevents clashes when multiple users are working on configurations at the same time. If another user deploys changes while you are working on your draft, you are alerted during the deployment process. Choose to either update to the latest version or cancel to secure your changes before transitioning.

    Offline Device Configuration

    Experience seamless configuration control with Factory CONNECT. You have the ability to manage device configurations, whether they are online or offline. Access and update draft configurations effortlessly, ensuring that your changes are saved and ready to deploy after the device is back online.
