Gateway Setup
Elemental Machines provides multiple styles of Gateways. If you have a Tablet Gateway (Model GW1), please follow the setup instructions below. For Gateway-2, please follow the setup instructions in 771-00021 Gateway (Model GW2) User Manual. For Gateway-3, please follow the setup instructions in 771-00034 Gateway (Model GW3) User Manual.
Tablet Gateway (Model GW1) Software Setup
To power on the Gateway, press and hold the upper right-hand button on the
device:
- Wait for the main screen to come up
- Press the ‘home’ button when you see the Elemental Machines Logo
- Click on the blue circle in the upper right corner (if the circle is not visible, press the hardware home button on the bottom of the tablet to make it appear, or swipe up if you do not have a hardware button):
- Click on the settings icon:
- Select WiFi from the list:
Positioning the Tablet Gateway
Tablet Gateways collect data from the Elements, collating it and transmitting
it across the internet to Elemental Machines’ Cloud. The tablet Gateways’
default is to transmit by Wi-Fi; for added reliability they fall back to
Cellular connection when Wi-Fi connection drops out. There is a danger of data
delay or even loss if all connection is lost, so tablet Gateways should be
positioned where they are getting good Wi-Fi and Cellular connection.
The strength of the Wi-Fi and Cellular connection are displayed by the Wi-Fi
icon using Cellular bar icons. These icons are displayed on the tablet Gateway
to the left of the battery percentage.
- 4 or more bars for both Wi-Fi and cell indicate good connectivity
- 2 bars for both Wi-Fi and cell runs an increased risk of some data delay or loss
- <2 bars for cell or Wi-Fi carry a danger of significant data delay or loss
