5.4.1 Gateway GW3000
When installing a GW3000
1
, first make sure that you have the right device, it should state GW3000
on the label, followed by a hardware version ID (see Illustration 4).
The GW3000 is installed in a few steps that are listed below;
1. Screw on the SMA antenna on the SMA connector (see Illustration 5)
NOTE: Do not turn on the GW30xx when the SMA antenna is not connected, it could
damage the device!
2. Push the RJ11 connector of the serial cable into the RJ11 socket (see Illustration 6).
NOTE: Make sure the RJ11 'clicks' in place to ensure that it is properly connected!
3. Connect the SUB9 connector of the serial cable to the COM port of your PC. Where possible,
use the screws of the serial connector to ensure it is tightly connected. The same applies
when you connect the GW to another peripheral device.
NOTE: Make sure the SUB9 connector is tightly connected, otherwise it may result in
packet errors over the serial line!
4. Push the jack of the AC/DC adapter in the AC/DC socket (see Illustration 7) and place the
adapter in a mains socket.
NOTE: If you do not push the jack fully in the socket, it might not be connected correctly!
NOTE: If you decide to use a different AC/DC adapter for the GW3000, it needs to be of
class 2-II with a cable length less than 3 meter, and with the correct specifications (DC
voltage & amperage, polarity and plug-size).
Mounting the GW is described in the deployment section of this user manual.
