Wiring the Power Inputs
The 6-contact terminal block connector on the top panel of Cellular Gateway is
used for two redundant power inputs. Please follow the steps below to insert
the power wire.
Caution
When performing any of the procedures like inserting the wires or tightening
the wire-clamp screws, make sure the power is OFF to prevent from getting an
electric shock.
-
Insert positive and negative DC power wires into contacts 1 and 2 for POWER 1, or 5 and 6 for POWER 2.
Note
Please make sure the input voltage is under the specifications of the Cellular Gateway.
-
Tighten the wire-clamp screws for preventing the wires from loosening.
Note
Please make sure the input voltage is under the specifications of the Cellular Gateway -
Tighten the wire-clamp screws for preventing the wires from loosening.
Note
The wire gauge for the terminal block should be in the range between 12 and 24 AWG.
Caution
PWR1 and PWR2 must provide the same DC voltage while operating with dual power input
Grounding the Device
User MUST complete grounding wired with the device; otherwise, a sudden
lightning could cause fatal damage to the device. EMD (Lightning) DAMAGE IS
NOT CONVERED UNDER WARRANTY
Wiring the Fault Alarm Contact
The fault alarm contacts are in the middle of the terminal block connector as
the picture shows below. Inserting the wires, the Cellular Gateway will detect
the fault status of the power failure or port failure, and then will form an
open circuit. The following illustration shows an application example for
wiring the fault alarm contacts
Note
- The wire gauge for the terminal block should be in the range between 12 and 24 AWG.
- Alarm relay circuit accepts up to 24V (max.) and 1A current.
Starting Web Management
The following shows how to start up the Web Management of the Cellular
Gateway. Note the Cellular Gateway is configured through an Ethernet
connection. Please make sure the manager PC must be set to the same IP subnet
address. For example, the default IP address of the Cellular Gateway is
192.168.1.1, then the manager PC should be set to 192.168.1.x (where x is a
number between 2 and 254), and the default subnet mask is 255.255.255.0
.
Note
The DHCP server of the Cellular Gateway is enabled. Therefore, the LAN PC
will get IP from the Cellular Gateway
Logging in to the Cellular Gateway
- Use Web browser and enter IP address http://192.168.1.1 (the factory default IP address or the one that you have just changed in console) to access the Web interface.
- When the following dialog box appears, please enter the default user name “admin” and password “admin” (or the password you have changed before) as shown in Figure 4-2.
- Default IP Address : 192.168.1.1
- Default User Name : admin
- Default Password : admin
- Default SSID (2.4G): PLANET_2.4G (for Wi-Fi model)
- Default SSID (5G): PLANET_5G (for Wi-Fi model)
- After entering the password, the main screen appears as shown in Figure 4-3.
Now, you can use the Web management interface to continue the Cellular Gateway management or manage the Cellular Gateway by console interface. Please refer to the user’s manual for more. Administrators are strongly suggested to change the default password and Wi-Fi SSID on the first login to safeguard system security.
Recovering Back to Default Configuration
IP address has been changed or admin password has been forgotten – To reset the IP address to the default IP address “192.168.1.1” or reset the login password to default value, press the hardware reset button on the front panel for about 15 seconds. After the device is rebooted, you can log in the management Web interface within the same subnet of 192.168.1.xx.
