InTemp® CX5001 Gateway Quick Start Guide

I am setting up a CX5001 gateway to automatically download CX loggers to the InTempConnect® cloud.

1. Go to www.intempconnect.com to set up an account or log into your existing account (A).

2. In InTempConnect, select System Setup and then Roles. Click Add Role (A) to create a role for the person who is setting up the gateway or click an existing role to edit it.

3. Type the name of the role (A) for the Description. Select Login to InTempConnect and the gateway-related privileges (Manage Gateways, Manage Logger/Gateway Profiles, and Gateway Administrator) from the Available Privileges list on the left and click the right arrow button (B) to move them to the Assigned Privileges list on the right. Select a user from the Available Users list on the left and click the right arrow button (C) to move the user to the Assigned Users list on the right. Click Save (D). To add a user, select Users from the System Setup menu, then clilck Add User, complete the fields, and assign the user a role with gateway privileges.

4. Click Gateways and then Gateway Profi les. Click Add Gateway Profile and type a name (A) for the profile. Select the CX logger types you plan to use with the gateway. Select any of the following options that best meet your specific gateway application needs (B):

   • Immediately connect to any logger not seen by this gateway.
   • Immediately connect and download to a logger any logger with a new sensor alarm.
   • Immediately connect to any logger with a low battery alarm (CX400 and CX450 loggers only). Immediately connect to and download any loggers that have been stopped and are no longer recording data (CX500, CX600, and CX700 loggers only).
   • Select a time to Enable reverse logistics for shipment loggers after (Shipping applications only).
   • Click Save (C). Refer to the full product manual for details on other configuration settings. Go to www.onsetcomp.com/intemp/resources/documentation/21781-cx5000-gateway-manual.

5. Insert the correct plug for your region into the AC adapter. Connect the AC adapter to the gateway and plug it in. For Power over Ethernet, insert the Ethernet cable. Wait a couple of minutes for the gateway to completely power up. The LED on the Gateway is solid yellow while it powers up and then flashes yellow once it is ready to set up. This can take up to approximately 3 minutes. The light turns green when the gateway connects to the network.

6. Set up network settings. The three types are: Personal Wi-Fi, Enterprise Wi-Fi, or Ethernet. Make sure the device with the InTemp app can connect to the network. Open the app and log in as an InTempConnect user (A). If the gateway will be using Ethernet with DHCP, plug in the Ethernet cable. Network settings are configured automatically. To configure network settings for Ethernet with static IP addresses or for other Wi-Fi network configurations, refer to the product manual at: www.onsetcomp.com/intemp/resources/documentation/21781-cx5000-gateway-manual.
   Tap Devices (B). The gateway appears in the list. Tap the gateway in the list (C) to connect to it. Select Personal or Enterprise from the Type dropdown.

   • Personal: Enter the network name and password and tap Save.
   • Enterprise: Enter the network name, username, and password and tap save.

7. Connect to the gateway (see step 6) and tap Confi gure (A). Select the gateway profi le you created in InTempConnect in step 4 (swipe left and right if there are multiple profi les). Type a name for the gateway (B) and tap Start (C). Once a gateway has contacted InTempConnect for
   the fi rst time, a user is created for the gateway in your account. Click Settings and then Users to see the gateway user name.

8. Deploy the gateway. Some guidelines when selecting a location for the gateway:

   • The gateway can support loggers within transmission range, which optimally is 30.5 m (100 ft) with full line-of-sight.
   • Test the range by positioning your mobile device where you want to deploy the gateway. If the mobile device can connect to the logger with the InTemp app from that location, then the gateway should be able to connect to the logger as well.
   • If you plan to use the gateway for loggers in different rooms, test the connection first.

The gateway is ready for use with loggers. See www.intempconnect.com/help for details on configuring and downloading loggers with the gateway, setting up shipments, and more.
