# Connect Base Station

Aranet Pro base can be connected to Aranet Cloud by registering it to the Workspace. The Aranet Cloud Workspace creation process is described in this topic: [Create Workspace](/aranet-cloud-page/aranet-cloud-landing-page/workspace-management/create-workspace.md)

**If you just created a new Workspace,** go to Base stations and press **ADD BASE STATION** button:

There are two ways to connect a base station to Cloud.

1. The Cloud to Base way or remote registration (Only from Base station FW 4.5.0)
2. The Base to Cloud way

#### **The Cloud to Base way or remote registration.**

To register the base station remotely, you first have to go to the Cloud workspace you want to add the base station to and click on the Base stations tab.\
After, you can click on the **NEW BASE STATION BUTTON** and a new screen will pop out:

<div data-with-frame="true"><figure><img src="/files/1sYXs5TIJnvYKnja9iVi" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure></div>

From here, you have to enter the base's serial number and the default WiFi SSID. If you have the PRO+ line of base stations (white), it will have a sticker on the front, behind the glass of the info.

If you have the regular PRO model (black) base station, the sticker with the serial number is on the back. But the WiFi SSID is only visible if the base station is plugged in and you have a device that can see WiFi signals. You should use the default Wi-Fi SSID, if it is changed, it will not work.

**!NOTE! The base has to be at least FW 4.5.0**

Afterwards, the base station will show up as pending and can take up to 2 hours after it has an internet connection to connect to the Cloud.

If you are not able to register using this method, you can click on **REGISTER USING BASE STATION UI**.

#### **Base to Cloud registration**

**Aranet PRO base must be connected to Internet!**

Further, follow the instructions in new pop-up window:

When registration code is created on the Aranet Cloud system side, then the next user must log in to Aranet PRO base station WEB graphical user interface, go to the **Aranet Cloud** section, and here enter in the appropriate fields **the same e-mail and registration code** as prompted in Aranet Cloud message. Then the user must click the button **REGISTER TO THE CLOUD**:

Aranet PRO base will start its’ paired sensor measurement data upload to the Aranet Cloud platform. The sensor data upload process, depending on sensor data and data connection speeds between the Aranet PRO base station and Aranet Cloud system, can take up to 20 – 30 minutes. During this process, sensor data will gradually appear in the Aranet Cloud workspace.

After successful registration and sensor data upload to the Aranet Cloud workspace, the Aranet PRO base station itself will show the following information in **Aranet Cloud** section:

**Please NOTE, Aranet Pro base can be registered to the TRIAL workspace only once! You can not register the same Aranet Pro base to another Trial workspace.**\
