The Gateway contains an internal backup battery, if this battery is not sufficiently charged; the
Gateway will not switch on. Once external power is connected the internal battery will begin
recharging. Whenever the charge state becomes sufficient the Gateway will automatically start as requested.
Whilst in this mode Status LEDs 1, 2, 3 and 4 will flash in sequence. See “Figure 8 – Left Hand Side View of
Gateway” {Page 26} for location of these LEDs.
It takes a few minutes for the Gateway to initialise; a sequence of 2 beeps followed by 4 beeps indicates
successful initialisation.
Gateway Switch OFF
To turn the Gateway OFF navigate to the hardware page of the Gateway Web-View and use the
Shutdown Gateway
button, this will initiate the Gateway shut-down procedure.
If for some reason it is not possible to use the Gateway Web-View, then using a paper clip or similar object, press in
and hold the ON / OFF switch on the side of the Gateway for 4 seconds. The Gateway will beep once and the ON
indicator will flash at a 3 second interval to indicate shut-down. Once the shut-down sequence begins, the Gateway
will beep 10 times in quick succession. The shut-down procedure could take up to 5 minutes to complete. After
shut-down is complete the ON indicator extinguishes.
Gateway Reset
There are several circumstances under which the Gateway will perform a software reset, (for example performing
Gateway Clock Setup). At start of the sequence the Gateway will beep 10 times in quick succession. The reset
could take up to 5 minutes to complete which is indicated by a sequence of 2 beeps followed by 4 beeps to indicate
successful initialisation. Unlike the shut-down described above, the ON indicator will remain steady during the reset
sequence.
