KASTA BLE Local Mesh to Cloud Installation guide

  • Hello! I have reviewed the document on how to upload a BLE local mesh network to the cloud using the KASTA application. This document explains the setup of local networks, which can be used without internet and then later on can be uploaded to the cloud. I am ready to assist you with any questions you may have about the network upload process described in the manual, including the features mentioned.
  • Can I add or modify KASTA devices without an internet connection?
    When do I need to upload the local network to the cloud?
    How many methods are described to upload network to cloud?

How to upload BLE local mesh to cloud: Features & Overview
In the KASTA app version 2.4.0 release, we added a new
function, enabling local network configuration.
Now when users create a new BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy)
local mesh network, it will firstly be locally stored on the
device which is being used for setup i.e. phone or tablet
device (to be uploaded to the cloud at a later time).
This function is designed to improve the user’s experience,
allowing access to most of the app functions even when
there is no internet, or the internet connection is unstable.

In the local network, users can add/modify KASTA devices
and perform other network setup functions without an
internet connection. However, if users want to do the
following operations, the local network needs to be
uploaded to the cloud first:
A. Using other phone or tablet devices to login to the
same KASTA account and control this local network.
B. Adding the gateway into this network.
C. Using ‘Members’ function to share the network to
another KASTA account.

WHEN AND WHERE TO UPLOAD TO THE CLOUD
When users want to upload the local network to the cloud,
it will include all of the existing network configuration and
saved data of this local network. Therefore, users need to
ensure the internet they are going to use for uploading is
stable.
You do not need to upload everything inside the project,
if the building has poor 4G signal. You can click ‘upload’
when you are offsite with stable internet connection.
