2. Set the GadgetGateway to Normal mode. This can be done through either the 709.1/IP

Gateway Main Menu in the Serial Menu (Section 4.4), or through the Router Setup

page on the Web Interface (Section 5.4).

3. Set the Configuration Server address to the address of the Router-LL that is running the

Configuration Server. This can be done through either the Serial Interface or the Web

Interface (Section 4.4.12 or Section 5.4). Set the configuration server port to 2009.

4. Set the compatibility type to Coactive Router-LL. This can be done through either the

Serial Interface or the Web Interface (Section 4.4 or Section 5.4).

5. Register the device with the configuration server This can be done through by selecting

the [R] menu option in the SetUp menu of the Serial Interface or the Web Interface

(Section 4.4 or Section 5.4). The device should now show up in the device list on the

Coactive Configuration Server web page.

6. Verify that the GadgetGateway is configured correctly by checking the Channel List on

the Gateway. This can be done through either the Serial Interface or the Web Interface

(Section 4.6 or Section 5.6). If configured correctly, the Gateway will have two entries

in its Channel List: itself and the Router-LL.

7. The Gateway and the Router-LLs will now communicate with each other over IP and

will tunnel packets between ANSI/EIA 709.1 networks once they have been commis-

sioned using LonMaker or another ANSI/EIA 709.1 management tool.

Note: Save conﬁguration data after completing the conﬁguration steps. Manually entered

conﬁguration data will be lost on a reboot unless it is saved ﬁrst. To save conﬁguration

data to ﬂash Select [S] from the Main Menu and press ENTER. (See Section 4.3.4)

3.6 Using GadgetGateway with LonMaker over IP

Using a GadgetGateway with the LonMaker management software allows for manage-

ment of a LonWorks network without having a direct connection to that network. To create

a communication link between the LonMaker software and a GadgetGateway, you will

need a conﬁguration server such as the i.LON Conﬁguration Server.

3.6.3 Using the i.LON Conﬁguration Server

This section contains step-by-step instructions on how to set up the LonMaker tool to

communicate with a GadgetGateway using the i.LON Conﬁguration Server. The process

is similar to that of setting up a GadgetGateway to communicate with an i.LON using the
