Connect to the host system
1. Wire the Gateway's Ethernet 1 (Primary) or Serial Output connection to the
Host System Network or Serial I/O (see
drawings).
2. For serial connections, make sure all terminations are clean and secure to
avoid wiring connection problems.
4.5
Best practice
Twisted shielded pair cable is generally used to wire the serial connection, and it
is standard practice to ground the shield on the serial host side leaving the shield
floating on the Gateway side. Insulate the shield to avoid grounding issues.
In accordance with Emerson WirelessHART
Wireless Security Whitepaper), the Gateway should be connected to the Host
System via a LAN (Local Area Network) and not a WAN (Wide Area Network).
