Communication Setting

Amend Secret Key

• DHtps: Https transfer protocol
• D Timestamp authentication:
• The timestamp verification is enabled according to the factory setting and can communicate normally within about 10 minutes (600000ms). When the gateway time and the computer time are incorrectly deviant by 10 minutes, it will appear timestamp verification time-out.
• Callback Authorızation:
• Permission verification 1s are enabled according to the factory default, and the user does not need to modify this content.

Cloud Link

• Cloud state span: cloud connection state
• IP address and port of the cloud proxy server: mngm2.netvoxcloud.com:80 (for overseas)
• Modifying to another URL may cause the gateway to fail to connect to the cloud.
• If the network is normal and the cloud URL is entered correctly, but it still fails to connect to the cloud, please check whether the [Time Zone Setting] is consistent with the computer system time.

System Settings

• Enable https and timestamp, set cloud proxy server or MQTT
• A. https
• Enable/ Disable https
• B. Timestamp authentication
• The factory setting defaults that *Timestamp authentication” is selected. If the gateway time 1S incorrectly deviated by 10 minutes from the local time, the timestamp authentication will be timeout.
• The factory setting defaults that timestamp authentication is 10 minutes. Namely, only if the time lag between the gateway time and the local time is within plus and minus 10 minutes, the communication can be normal.
• C. Callback Authorization
• The factory setting defaults that “Callback Authorization is selected. Therefore, users do not need to modify it.
• D. Cloud Connection
• Default Cloud Address: mngm2.netvoxcloud.com:80
• Modifying to other URLs may cause the gateway to fail to connect to the cloud.
• E. MQTT Connection
• Please enter MQTT Host IP, Port, Username, and Password.
• Note: MQTT messages are encrypted. The user needs to be authorized the GW REST API before using. For the related matters, please contact the sales executive.

Important Maintenance Instructions
