3.4 Grounding the Device
User MUST complete grounding wired with the device; otherwise,
a sudden lightning could cause fatal damage to the device. EMD
(Lightning) DAMAGE IS NOT CONVERED UNDER WARRANTY.
3.5 Wiring the Fault Alarm Contact
The fault alarm contacts are in the middle of the terminal block
connector as the picture shows below. Inserting the wires, the LoRaWAN
Gateway will detect the fault status of the power failure or port failure,
and then will form an open circuit. The following illustration shows an
application example for wiring the fault alarm contacts

Note
1. The wire gauge for the terminal block should be in the
range between 12 and 24 AWG.
2. Alarm relay circuit accepts up to 24V (max.) and 1A
current.
3.3 Wiring the Power Inputs
The 6-contact terminal block connector on the top panel of LoRaWAN
Gateway is used for two DC redundant power inputs. Please follow the
steps below to insert the power wire.
Caution
When performing any of the procedures like inserting the
wires or tightening the wire-clamp screws, make sure the
power is OFF to prevent from getting an electric shock.
1. Insert positive and negative DC power wires into contacts 1 and 2 for
POWER 1, or 5 and 6 for POWER 2.

4. Starting Web Management
The following shows how to start up the Web Management of the
LoRaWAN Gateway. Note the LoRaWAN Gateway is congured through
an Ethernet connection. Please make sure the manager PC must be set
to the same IP subnet address.
For example, the default IP address of the LoRaWAN Gateway is
192.168.1.1, then the manager PC should be set to 192.168.1.x
(where x is a number between 2 and 254), and the default subnet mask
is 255.255.255.0.
