How it works

From power-on to full control

No VPNs, no port-forwarding, no IT headache. Here's exactly what happens from the moment a Neuronomous device is plugged in to the moment you're managing it from your dashboard.

The process

Four steps, zero friction

From a box of hardware to a fully managed fleet — here's the entire journey, in detail.

01

We ship & install the hardware

Turnkey provisioning — you don't touch a screwdriver.

  • Smart clocks and RFID attendance terminals, custom-built by us
  • Mounting, power, and physical installation all handled by our team
  • Each device is pre-provisioned with its credentials before it ships
  • Works on any standard WiFi — no ethernet runs required
02

Power on — it links itself

Auto-provisioning. The device registers itself the moment it boots.

  • Device boots, joins your WiFi, and publishes its first status message
  • The server auto-registers it via createOrUpdateDevice — no manual setup
  • No VPNs, no port-forwarding, no firewall changes needed
  • First online status lands in your dashboard within seconds
03

Secure MQTT keeps it connected

TLS-encrypted, QoS 1, self-healing — built for reliability.

  • Every message is TLS-encrypted with username/password broker auth
  • QoS 1 delivery guarantees attendance taps and notices are never lost
  • Auto-reconnect every 3s if the connection ever drops
  • Heartbeats report online/offline status, free memory, and latency
04

Manage everything from one dashboard

Live attendance, device health, notices, and OTA — in one place.

  • Real-time attendance records stream in as cards are tapped
  • Broadcast notices to one device, a group, or the whole site
  • Push firmware updates over the air — no site visits, ever
  • Role-based access: superadmin, admin, and user permissions

The data flow

Where every message goes

A live, bidirectional pipeline — devices report up, the dashboard pushes commands down, all in real time.

Onboarding

What happens after you say yes

A clear, staged rollout — we don't drop a box of hardware and disappear.

Day 0 — Kickoff

We scope your rooms, device count, and notice/attendance needs. You get a deployment plan and timeline.

Week 1 — Install

Our team mounts and provisions every device. Each one is powered on, linked to the cloud, and visible in your dashboard.

Week 2 — Onboard

We train your admins and staff: how to broadcast notices, read attendance, push updates, and manage roles.

Ongoing — Support

24/7 monitoring, proactive maintenance, OTA updates for life, and a dedicated account manager.
