NOTE about removing the CS-485:
For RS-232 or Ethernet applications, the CS-485 module is not used, and may be
removed. While many are tempted to do this (it can be used in other applications, of
course), we recommend that you remove the wiring that powers the CS-485 also, if
you do. Both the National Electrical Code and local electrical code (generally) do not
approve of either “wire nuts or electrical tape on exposed wires. As the Gateways are
built to UL and CSA standards, we suggest you adhere to these standards, to avoid
code issues.
Connecting to a BACnet/IP Network
This is quite simple: You plug in an 8-pin Category 5 or Category 6 cable into the
Ethernet connection on the top right-hand corner of the PC. You must set the IP
address of the Gateway to a static, fixed address, on the segment that you are in. This
is done with the CONFIG.TXT file, described in the following section.
