Commissioning Compass - Priva Compass Installation Manual

Commissioning Compass

Preparation
To be able to commission a new Compass, both the Gateway and the controller must be equipped
with the latest version of the software. This software is available at https://support.priva.com, under
Priva Compass, in the article Where can I find the latest Priva Compass software?. Save these files on
your laptop.
Setting up the Priva network
The Priva network is an industrial network separated from your office network, and is only used for
Priva products.
The Gateway creates a separation between the Priva network and the office network with the aid
of 2 network ports. The Priva network is connected to the second network port on the Gateway
(ETH2 or LAN2).
Each Compass controller has a built-in switch with 4 ports. The Priva network can be connected to
any of these ports. If you have several Compass controllers or other Priva products in the Priva
network, you can decide how the network infrastructure should be set up. A subsequent controller
can be connected directly to the built-in switch or via an external switch. The desired degree of
operational safety determines your choice of network infrastructure.
Before connecting the office network to the Gateway, you must first commission the Compass.
Gateway
From your laptop or another mobile device (tablet or mobile phone), you can start Gateway setup
via Wi-Fi or via a wired network connection.
