Gateway Configuration

Protocol configuration is completed at the factory, prior to final testing. If configuration
information was supplied at the time of order, the units will be configured for plug-and-play
installation with no further configuration required. If this information was unavailable, it will be
necessary to configure the addressing parameters.

BACnet IP systems will require a static IP address to communicate on the network, and may

require a device instance and MAC address

BACnet MS/TP and Johnson N2 systems require both a device instance, MAC address and

a baud rate to be set.

LonWorks systems automatically detect network address parameters and do not require

configuration.

Changing BACnet Device Instance and BACnet MAC Address

The initial step is to determine if both BACnet Device Instance and MAC address can be the
same value. If not, skip to Part B. If yes, continue with Part A using solely the small dipswitches.

Part A: Device Instance and MAC address same value

The device instance and BACnet MAC address can be easily changed to the same value using
the dip switches (SW3 Bank 1 through 8) highlighted on figure 10. Notice these are the smaller
dipswitches, not the larger ones.
