    II. HOW YOUR GATEWAY WORKS Your ALTA Ethernet Gateway 4 manages communication between your sensors, iMonnit, and network peers through the SNMP v1 and Modbus TCP protocols. When running, the gateway will periodically transmit data on a heartbeat to the iMonnit servers. The gateway will store information received from sensors until its next heartbeat.

    ISP. Incorrect time can affect the delivery of sensor traffic. If the Monnit Server is active, it will be utilized for time synchronization in ordinary opera- tion. So SNTP will be used as a backup.

    V. USING THE ETHERNET GATEWAY 4 USING THE ETHERNET GATEWAY 4 The back of your gateway will look like the diagram below: From left to right, we see: Power: This is where your power cord will be plugged into. Network: This is the socket where your Ethernet cord will go. Utility Button: A short, five second, press of this button will enable the local interface.

    ETHERNET GATEWAY 4 SETTINGS ON IMONNIT The Ethernet Gateway 4 will receive data from all sensors assigned to the network and within range, then return this data to the iMonnit server in a series of heartbeats. You can access gateway settings by selecting “Gateways” in the main navigation panel. Choose the Ethernet Gateway 4 from the list of gateways registered to your account.
  • Page 9 Commands Choose the bullet for Commands located just under the Settings title to access the commands page. A. Selecting the Reform Network command will trigger the gateway to remove all sensors from the internal whitelist, and then request a new sensor list from the server. This command will force all sensors to reinitialize their connection with the gateway.
  • Page 10 Local Area Network Choose the Local Area Network bullet under the Settings title to open up the local area network configuration page. The Local Area Network includes the ability to switch your network IP address from DHCP to Static. DHCP will be the default network IP address. Multiple interfaces can be active, if using any of the polling interfaces we recommend using a static IP address on the Gateway.
  • Page 11 SNMP Interface – SNMP stands for Simple Network Management Protocol) is an Internet application protocol that manages and monitors network device functionality. Monnit uses SNMP version 1. These settings can both be configured both on iMonnit and the local interface.
  • Page 12 Modbus Interface – Modbus TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) is the Modbus RTU protocol with a TCP interface that runs on Ethernet. Monnit provides the Modbus TCP interface for you to pull gateway and sensor data. You can use Modbus without the server interface active.

  • Page 13: Using The Local Interface

    VI. USING THE LOCAL INTERFACE If using iMonnit is not an option, you can set up your gateway and sensors offline through the local interface. • Connect the gateway to a router or network swtich using an Ethernet cord. • Plug in the gateway to a power outlet.

    Epoch between Default Server and SNTP: This is the difference in seconds between the standard NTP Epoch (start date 01/01/1900) and Monnit’s Epoch (start date 01/01/2012). System Reset Period: The time in hours it takes for the system to reset.
  • Page 17 Modbus Transmission Control Protocol Configuration Modbus TCP interface runs on an Ethernet connection. TCP makes sure all data is received. Modbus TCP is a non-streaming data interface standard. This means data must be requested in order for it to be received. The Modbus TCP Interface will store all data values in 16-bit registers.

  • Page 19 SNMP Configuration SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) settings for a gateway can be adjusted on the offline local interface. You can continue to use SNMP without the server interface active. The data will not be sent to a server, but you can continue to poll for the data as it is received by the gateway.
