Installing CygNet Mobile

CygNet Mobile accesses CygNet services via an instance of CygNet Bridge, in order to access data values over the internet. The secure CygNet Bridge connection allows CygNet Mobile to gather information and production data values from your CygNet installation.

Install CygNet Mobile to view and manage a variety of data. CygNet Mobile installations access CygNet data from outside of a CygNet installation by connecting to CygNet Bridge, which in turn provides a secure connection to the services hosting your CygNet data.

CygNet Mobile requires the installation of CygNet Bridge software, and must be selected as an option during the CygNet Bridge installation process.

See CygNet Bridge for general information about that component.
