Installation

Step 1 : Fix the device bracket on the bottom of the enclosure with four M6*12 screws following the direction shown in the figure below.

Step 2: Tighten the pole clamp bar with bolts, washer, and nuts.
Notes: The diameter of a pole that brackets support is 50-100mm. If the pole diameter is more than this value, the steel strips can be used. Standard delivery without steel strip and the user should purchase separately.

Step 3: Hang up the device and fasten it with two M6*12 Screws.

Connecting Power over Ethernet

Step 1: Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable from the enclosure to the Ethernet port labeled POE on the adapter.
Step 2: Connect an Ethernet cable from your LAN to the Ethernet port labeled LAN on the adapter.
Step 3: Connect the Power Cord to the power port on the adapter. Connect the other end of the Power Cord to a power outlet.

Weather protection

Tape sealed antenna and cable connections:
Step 1: to better protect the Ethernet cable gland and the antenna connector from the weather, you need to cover them with PVC tape.
Clean the surface area of the connector that will be wrapped. Wrap a layer of PVC tape with a 50% overlap according to the rotation direction of the connector.  Continue wrapping the PVC tape to about 10 mm below the end of the connector.

Step 2 Cut off about 50 cm waterproof tape. Stretch it to double the length. Wrap three layers around the connector with a 50% overlap. Hold the tape in place with your hand for a few seconds.

Step 3 : Wrap three additional layers with PVC tape with natural uncoiling force and a 50% overlap. Make sure to cover the head and the tail of the connector.

Accessing the gateway

WI-FI AP MODE
By default, the Gateway will work in Wi-Fi AP Mode which means that you can find an SSID named “ HAC-GWW1-XM” on your PC’s Wi-Fi Network List.  “XXXX” is the last two bytes of the Gateway MAC address. To access the Web Management Platform, input the IP Address: 192.168.230.1 in your Web browser.
NOTE
No password is required to connect via Wi-Fi
Using your preferred Web browser, input the aforementioned IP Address and you should see the same Log-in Page shown in the following image. Login with the credentials provided below:

• Username: root
• Password: root
  For Westgate Edge Pro models V2 and H you need to set the login password at the first login.

WAN PORT (ETHERNET)
Connect the Ethernet cable to the port marked “ETH” on the Gateway and the other end to the Poe port of the Poe injector. Connect the LAN port of the Poe injector to your PC.
The default IP is 169.254.X.X. The last two segments(X.X) are mapped from the last four bits of the MAC address of your gateway. For example, the last four bits  of the MAC address are 0F:01, and the IP address is 169.254.15.1. Make sure to manually set the address of your PC to one in the same network (for example  169.254.15.100). Use the same credentials for the Web UI as for AP mode.
