Follow these steps to download a site collector image and activate your Epiphany Site Collector once you have created a site collector in Epiphany and downloaded a site collector image.
On the Site Collectors panel, in the card for the site collector, from the Actions drop-down, select Get Activation Key.
The activation key is generated and displayed for your site collector. Copy the key for your records. Do not close the pop-up.
An activation key is one-time use. Closing the Activation Key window will result in needing to generate a new key.
If you did close the window, repeat step 1 to generate a new activation key. Once you create a new activation key the previous one is void.
For security purposes, an activation key is only valid for 24 minutes and must be used within that timeframe.
Upon booting the site collector Image for the first time an interactive login prompt displays. The default login credentials for an un-configured image are:
LOGIN: config
PASSWORD: epiphany
After entering the above credentials, you will be prompted to change the Config Password to a password of your choosing.
The next step is to activate the site collector using the activation key obtained from Epiphany. Enter the Configure Collector Menu. It will prompt you to enter the activation key. This is the key that was generated in Step 1 above. Enter the key exactly as shown in Epiphany and press Enter.
After you enter the activation key, Epiphany attempts to associate the site collector image to the Epiphany processing pipeline. If the site collector associates to the Epiphany pipeline successfully you should see Ready on the main status window for both the Network and Collector. You may now exit the Collector Setup Menu and return to your Epiphany console.
You have now completed the steps for downloading and setting up the Epiphany Site Collector. In your Epiphany console you should see ACTIVE in green in the lower-right corner of the site collector, the Status should be ENABLED, and the LAST CHECKIN time should be recent.
