ONFIGURATION

Initial Connection

The setup will guide you through the necessary installation steps. The minimum system
requirements for installation are:

 An Ethernet adapter with TCP/IP support.

 A WEB browser installed. (Google Chrome or Firefox recommended)


An Ethernet TCP/IP connection to the VWG is required for commissioning. For this initial
Ethernet connection, you can use either:

A “crossover” cable connected directly between your PC and the VWG

A normal LAN connection, meaning that both your PC and the VWG are
physically connected to the same Ethernet hub or switch.


Initial IP address

When shipped, a new VWG is pre-configured with an IP address in the

range of: 192.168.1.12n (primary “LAN1” port, the “LAN2” port is disabled) where the last
numeral (n) in the IP address matches the last numeral in the VWG serial number. The
VWG serial number can be found directly on the label inside the VWG. In all cases, the
default subnet mask is: 255.255.255.0.

Two areas of preparation are required before proceeding with the configuration. Provide
power and connectivity. After you complete the commissioning process described in this
document, you can mount and wire the VWG controller at the job site, making permanent
mounting and wiring connections.

Configuration of the wireless gateway

The configuration of the wireless gateway is performed through a web browser. In order
to connect to the wireless gateway, start the web browser and enter

http://192.168.1.12x

in for the URL where x where the last digit (x) in the IP address matches the last digit in
the gateway’s serial number as visible under the gateway cover.
