VibCloud setup and testing guide for Cassia X2000

iTnnovate DOOEL | Version 1.0 | July 2026

Overview

This guide walks you through setting up a Cassia X2000 Bluetooth gateway with the VibCloud application from scratch. By the end you will have a fully operational gateway collecting vibration data from BluVib sensors and sending it to the VibCloud cloud platform.

Estimated time: 20–30 minutes.

Who this guide is for: Technical staff at Sensor-Works or the client site performing the initial deployment and testing.

What you will need

Note on sensors: Please make sure the BluVib sensors are pre-registered to your account on the VibCloud platform. Contact iTnnovate if you need assiatnce, full guide on how to configure online BluVib sensors is available at Setup VibCloud online for BluVib

Section 1 - Connect the gateway

1. Connect the Cassia X2000 to your router or switch using the Ethernet cable or WiFi.

2. Connect the power adapter and switch the unit on.

3. Wait approximately 60 seconds for the gateway to boot fully. The status LED will settle to a steady colour when ready.

Section 2 - Access the gateway management UI

The gateway has a built-in web management interface accessible from any browser on the same network. Follow the quick start guide Cassia provides.

2.1 - Find the Gateway's IP Address

Log into your router's admin panel and look for a device named Cassia-X2000 (or similar) in the connected device list. Note its IP address - for example 192.168.1.100.

Alternatively, if your network supports mDNS, try http://cassia-X2000.local/ directly in your browser.

2.2 - Open the Management UI

Open a web browser and navigate to:

For example: http://192.168.1.100/

Log in with the gateway credentials:

Open

Section 4 - Install the VibCloud application

The VibCloud application runs inside the gateway's built-in Linux container. You install it by uploading the app package through the management UI.

1. In the management UI, navigate to the Container tab (sometimes under Advanced or Apps).

2. Find the Install App or Select File button.

3. Click it and browse to the vibcloud.0.8.tar.gz file you received from iTnnovate.

4. Click Install (or Upload and Install).

5. The gateway will upload and extract the package. This takes approximately 30–60 seconds.

6. When installation is complete, the app status will show as Running or Active.

Open

Open

Important: The app will not start collecting data yet - it waits until the credentials in Section 5 are entered and saved.

Section 5 - Configure VibCloud

Once the app is installed, you need to enter the VibCloud credentials so the gateway knows where to send data.

1. In the Container tab, locate the Config section for the installed app. It will list the fields below.

2. Enter the values provided by iTnnovate:

3. Click Apply or Save.

Open

After saving, the gateway will:

• Connect to the VibCloud platform to verify credentials

• Begin scanning for registered BluVib sensors

• Start collecting and uploading data automatically

This process takes approximately 1–2 minutes after saving.

Section 6 - Verify data collection

6.1 - Check the app is running

Return to the Container tab and confirm the VibCloud app status shows Running.

Open

6.2 - Confirm data appears in the VibCloud Dashboard

1. Open your VibCloud cloud dashboard in a browser (URL provided by iTnnovate).

2. Log in with your account credentials.

3. Navigate to the Dashboard section.

4. Your registered BluVib sensors should appear, and readings should begin arriving within 15-30 minutes of the first sensor waking up.

Open

Note on sensor timing: BluVib sensors in wakeup mode transmit on a schedule (typically every 10–60 minutes depending on configuration). If no readings appear immediately, this is expected - wait for the next sensor wakeup cycle.

Section 7 - Sensor placement and power

Before leaving the installation running:

• Place BluVib sensors on the machinery to be monitored, following the mounting guidance provided with the sensors.

• Ensure sensors are powered on (LED will flash briefly on first power-up).

• Sensors connect to the gateway automatically - no pairing or manual intervention is required.

Troubleshooting

App shows "Stopped" or does not appear in the Container tab

• Ensure the vibcloud.0.8.tar.gz file was not corrupted during transfer - request a fresh copy from iTnnovate if needed.

• Try re-installing: remove the existing app in the Container tab, then repeat Section 4.

Config fields keep resetting / not saving

• After entering all fields, wait for the confirmation message before navigating away.

• If the issue persists, try a different browser (Chrome or Firefox recommended).

No sensor readings in the VibCloud dashboard after 30 minutes

1. Confirm the sensors are powered on and within approximately 10 metres of the gateway.

2. Confirm the VibCloudApiUrl, VibCloudApiKey, and VibCloudClientId values match exactly what was provided - even a single character difference will prevent upload.

3. Contact iTnnovate with the gateway's serial number and the approximate time testing started.

Gateway not reachable at its IP address

• Confirm the ethernet cable is firmly connected at both ends.

• Try power-cycling the gateway (unplug power, wait 10 seconds, reconnect).

• Confirm your computer is on the same network segment as the gateway.

Appendix - Production Deployment Note

This guide covers the direct gateway setup, which is suitable for initial testing. In a production deployment across multiple sites, the gateway should be managed through the Cassia Access Controller (AC) - a cloud-hosted management layer that provides:

• Remote app installation and updates across all gateways

• Gateway health and connectivity monitoring from a single dashboard

• Remote terminal access for diagnostics (without physical access to the site)

The AC is lightweight Docker-based software that can run on any Linux server with a public IP address. There are two options for hosting it:

• Self-hosted: The client installs and runs the AC on their own server or cloud infrastructure. iTnnovate can provide the setup documentation and the software.

• Hosted by iTnnovate: iTnnovate can provision and manage an AC instance on behalf of the client. This is available as an optional managed service - please contact us to discuss requirements and pricing.

In either case, once the AC is running, the gateway registers with it automatically over the internet and no further on-site access is needed for ongoing management.
