GRAVIMETRIC GATEWAY AND ETHERNET COMMUNICATIONS

Adding Ethernet Accessible Blenders in the G2 Software

The Last step is configuring G2 to access a Weigh Scale Blender located on the network (wired

or wireless) is to add the Blender’s ID number to the G2 Client’s Blender Edit Screen along

with the TCP/IP access network settings. Follow these instructions to add a TCP/IP

Blender:

1. With the G2 Server Running, open a G2 Client.

2. In the menu go to Edit, and then Blenders.

3. In the Blender Edit Screen, type the Blender ID of the blender you wish to add.

4. Check off TCP/IP Access.

5. Under WSB I.P. enter the assigned IP address of the Ethernet device connected to the

blender controller (Example: 10.0.0.2)

6. Under Port, enter the port of the Ethernet device connected to the blender controller.

For the G2-ES enter: 4001 (this is the default port unless changed during setup)

For the Wireless Serial Server enter 4660 (this is the default port unless changed

during setup)

7. Click the Add/Update Button to add this blender location. G2 will pause for a few

seconds as it collects information from the blender. By observing the LED lights on

the Ethernet device, you should see activity. Selecting the Blender ID from the

Blender List will display the State of the Blender. The possible states are:

Not Initialized – Indicates communication was never established.

Offline – Indicates communication was established but then lost.

Online – Indicates communication with blender is established.

If the State of the blender is Online, the G2 Server is communicating with the Blender.

You can now proceed to using G2 to download recipes, monitor and collect totals

from the Blender.
