In order to configure a NIU IoT device you will need to create an account on the NIU platform, so that ATOM can afterwards establish an integration for your service and you can add your yet unregistered IoT devices.

Once the new account is created, please ask NIU for an API key which ATOM requires in order to establish the connection.

ATOM will then share a webhook link that NIU requires in return.

Afterwards you will be able to add your IoT devices to the ATOM dashboard and pair them with your vehicles, detailed guidelines below:

NB! When adding your IoT devices we recommend editing each IMEI number and adding your vehicle ID in the end. For example, 0000000000002. The easiest way to do it quickly would be to click Edit and then copy your vehicle ID in the IMEI field and add as many 0 as possible in front of the vehicle ID. Amended IMEI numbers will help you locate the IoT device when connecting it to your vehicle.

Please note that IMEI may consist of numbers only!

NB! Custom ID is a unique ID that you need to maintain by saving the NIU SN number there, since NIU does not use IMEI numbers.

Once you have registered all vehicles in the ATOM dashboard, reach out to NIU with the vehicle custom IDs and ask NIU to activate the webhooks for all your vehicles.

If everything is configured and added correctly, you will see that the IoT device/lock is sending its signal through. Check column "Last update: x min.", e.g. (it should show exact time when last signal was received):
