3.5 Commissioning an Ethernet Gateway
Once the gateway is mounted in your facility, use the SKF Axios mobile app to
commission it. SKF Axios supports only smartphones using Android 8.0+ or iOS
14+ with near field communication (NFC) and Bluetooth. For additional help with
locating your gateway, see

Note
: If you are using an iOS mobile device and you have previously paired with
this particular gateway, then you may need to make your device "forget" the
gateway before re-pairing. For more information, see
1. If Bluetooth isn't already turned on for your smartphone, turn it on.
2. Plug the Ethernet cable into the gateway and make sure the network light
(orange) and the Bluetooth light (blue) on the front of your gateway are
blinking alternately.
3. Push the Config button on the gateway to put it into commissioning mode.
The Bluetooth and network LED lights will start flashing rapidly.
4. Stay within 5 meters (16 feet) of the Ethernet Gateway.
