1: Introduction

Note: This user guide is intended for the AirLink RV50 Series. If you have a different AirLink
gateway, refer to the ALEOS Software Configuration User Guide for the your gateway.

Overview

ACEmanager™ is the free, web-based utility used to manage and configure AirLink
gateways. It is a web application integrated in the ALEOS™ software that runs on the
AirLink gateway. AirLink Embedded Operating System (ALEOS) is purpose-built to
maintain a wireless connection and to configure the gateway to the needs of the
system. ACEmanager provides comprehensive configuration, monitoring, and control
functionality to all AirLink gateways and routers.
ACEmanager enables you to:
• Log in and configure parameters
• Adjust network settings
• Change security settings
• Update events reporting and control outputs
• Update ALEOS software and radio module firmware
• Copy configuration settings to other AirLink gateways
Since ACEmanager can be accessed remotely over-the-air as well as locally, the
many features of ALEOS can be managed from any location.
An ALEOS configuration template can be created using ACEmanager, after a single
device is configured and installed, to program other AirLink gateways with the same
configuration values. This enables quick, accurate deployment of large pools of
devices.
