Registration


Registration of a new NBnano is required when it is received. This process assigns the NBnano to you allowing IQnexus to provide support.

Adding Your NBnano to the Cloud Platform

Adding your NBnano to the cloud platform can be skipped, however this will limit some features of your NBnano. The Cloud platform also allows you to access and manage all of your NBnanos, while receiving status reports and being notified if any of your NBnanos go offline.

Before a you can add your NBnano to the cloud platform you must first have an account. If you already have an account, you can just enter the credentials into the form and click Authenticate. If you do not have an account already, create a new account by clicking the ‘Create Account’ button where you will be taken to https://id.nbnano.io/login/new-account to follow the prompts.

Once authenticated you can continue to the next step

Contact Details

The registration process requires users to add basic information. This information will be used when providing support.

NBnano Cloud Platform Continued


If you did not skip adding your NBnano to the Cloud Platform you will be asked to add this NBnano to a project. This project will give you a custom URL to access and manage all of your NBnanos

You may select an existing project from the drop down list. If you have not made a project yet with your NBnano account then a new one can be created.

If you choose to create a new project, you will be automatically added to this project and can add user’s to your project. Your current NBnano will also be added to this project. This way you can separate your NBnanos into multiple projects should you desire. Usually you would create 1 project and add all your NBnanos to this single project, so you can see all of them in the same place.
