Chapter 5 Networking with a Gateway
In the screen shot above the RUI/GTW is shown
highlighted to bring greater clarity to the subject in
focus. Any EZ-ZONE device on the network will ap-
pear in this window and would be available for the
purpose of configuration and monitoring. After click-
ing on the RUI/GTW simply click the next button
once again where the screen below will appear.
Notice in the screen shot above that the device part
number is clearly displayed at the top of the page
(yellow highlight added for emphasis). When multiple
EZ-ZONE devices are on the network it is important
that the part number be noted prior to configuring so
as to avoid making unwanted configuration changes
to another controller.
Looking closely at the left hand column (Param-
eter Menus) notice that it displays all of the available
menus and associated parameters within the gateway
The menu structure as laid out within this software
follows:
- Communications
- Global
- Local Remote Gateway
- Lock
- Diagnostics
Navigating through this software and acquiring a
better understanding of the available options is easy.
Simply slide the scroll bar up or down to display the
menu and parameter of choice. As an alternative,
menus can be collapsed for greater focus on the menu
of choice and or expanded for a broader view of all
menus by clicking on the plus or negative symbol
next to menu name. Once the focus is brought to an
individual parameter of choice (single click of mouse)
as shown below for Local Remote Gateway 1, all that
can be setup related to that parameter will appear in
the center column along with context sensitive help in
the right hand column. If a parameter is grayed out
(not selectable) as shown in the center column below,
that function is either not enabled or it does not ap-
ply.
To speed up the process of configuration notice
that at the bottom of the center column there is an
option to copy settings. If gateway settings are the
same for all instances click on "Copy Settings" where
a copy from to copy to dialog box will appear allowing
for quick duplication of all settings.
Once the configuration is complete click the "Fin-
ish" button at the bottom right of the screen above.
The screen that follows this action can be seen below.
