DC-IN Power Outlet The Serial to Ethernet+WiFi Converter is powered by a single 12V DC (Inner positive, outer negative) power supply and 1.0mA of current. Connect the power adaptor to the AC power socket and put the DC Jack plug into the outlet of device. The “SYS” green color LED will be ON when power is properly supplied.
Wiring Architecture 1. RS-232 2. RS-422/RS-485 When you finish the steps mentioned above and the LED indicators are as shown, the Gateway is installed correctly. You can check the Software Setup CD to find Utility to setup the IP Address. To proceed with the parameters setup, please use a web browser (IE or Chrome) to continue the settings.
Configuration When setting up your Gateway for the first time, the first thing you should do is to configure the IP address. The following topics are covered in this chapter: IP Search Utility Setup Configuration through Web browser...
IP Search Utility Setup Copy “CvIotFinder Setup.exe” from CD ROM to your host computer. “CvIotFinder” is a self-extract-install program. Double click it to install this Wi-Fi IP Searching tool into host computer. Upon running IP search tool (CvIotFinder), if a firewall warning pop up, please click to accept the program pass through firewall.
