## Factory Kit Quickstart Guide

*Here's everything you need to know about setting up your Factory Kit.*

#### The Tulip Factory Kit was the first-touch kit of accessories and hardware for new Tulip users to get started with edge connectivity.

#### **Factory Kit is discontinued as of June 23, 2022.**

Hooray! You’ve just received your Factory Kit. Now, let’s get it up and running.

Your factory kit is just a small example of the different ways Tulip Edge hardware can enable your factory. If you have a use-case in mind and you just wanna hit the ground running, check out this [Edge IO Overview,](https://support.tulip.co/docs/edge-io-overview) it walks through all the great resources for Tulip Edge Devices.
