Gateway Configuration > Gateways > Replace Gateway with New One
In the Gateway Configuration screen, click to highlight an "unreachable" (IP address highlighted red) Gateway in the list,
then click Gateways > Replace Gateway with New One. Upon selection, the Gateway discovery process is started,
and all newly discovered Gateways will be listed in the New Gateways screen. Select the desired Gateway from the list,
then click OK. All existing Gateway configuration data (radio channel, security data, etc.) and the replaced Gateway's Lock
Table (existing assigned locks) will be sent to (and used by) the new Gateway. Note: Functional Gateways (Status =
Ready; IP address highlighted blue) may also be replaced, if desired.
This option is typically used when a working Gateway
(discovered on the network, added to an Account and oper-
ational with physical locks assigned) becomes faulty and
needs to be physically replaced.
Before replacing the Gateway, be sure to check the net-
work and the Gateway connections outlined in the Gate-
ways, Relocate Gateways (Displayed in red) on page
26.
Physically replace the Gateway device:
power wires and the RJ-45 plug from the old device, then
reconnect all wires to the new device. Remember to press
the "RESET" button on the new Gateway PC board to clear
the Gateway memory (see the instructions in WI2085 for
resetting the Gateway).
In the Gateway Configuration screen, click to select the
Gateway you wish to replace. Then click Gateways > Re-
place Gateway with New One. The following screen
appears showing newly discovered Gateways:
Click the radio button to select the desired Gateway and click
OK. DL-Windows will automatically replace the old Gateway
with the new Gateway, copying the Gateway configuration
data (radio channel, security data, etc.) and existing assigned
locks into the new Gateway.

Version 2 Gateway Replacement
Considerations
The following should be considered when using version 2
Gateways:
● Older "version 1" Gateways can be replaced by version 2
Gateways (and vice versa)
Disconnect the
● When replacing a version 2 Gateway, it is vital to ensure
the "Expander Group" dials of the new Gateway are set
identically to the Gateway being replaced
● If the Gateway being replaced has Expanders, upon re-
placement the Expander Configuration Table (Routing
Table) will be transferred into the new Gateway (along
with other configuration data such as radio channel, secu-
rity data, etc.)
USB Gateway Replacement
Considerations
● Networx Gateways ("version 1" or "version 2") cannot be
replaced with a USB Gateway (model AL-IME-USB)
● A USB Gateway can be replaced by a Networx Gateway
● If you wish to replace a USB Gateway with a new USB
Gateway, do not use this "Gateways > Replace Gateway
with New One" feature. Instead, see OI386 for com-
plete step by step instructions.
● See page 33 for more information about Expander
