System Overview
The wired network interface for the Series 4292 Wireless Sensor BAS Gateway(WSG)
is a ProtoCessor module from FieldServer Technologies, and is configured separately
from other aspects of the gateway. The ProtoCessor module is referred to as a
“FieldServer” in the instructions that follow.
Siemens will pre-configure the network interface as it is ordered. In the event network
parameters need to be modified, use the following instructions.
The gateway has three types of wired network protocols: Ethernet, RS-485, and FTT-
10. These physical interfaces support a range of network protocols depending on the
particular interface. All changes to the wired network parameters are performed
through an Ethernet interface.
1. Install FieldServer Toolbox. The FieldServer Toolbox will enable you to discover
the wireless gateway and connect to it. If you already know the gateway IP address
you may also enter the gateway IP directly into a browser to connect to it.

2. Select the wireless gateway. After installing and starting the FieldServer Toolbox, a
screen similar to the one below is shown. If there are no firewall issues, a list of
available and recently connected (not shown) wireless gateways will appear.
Initially, the wireless gateway IP address is 192.168.1.24. If the host network does not
match this default setting the connectivity indicator will be yellow. Clicking on the gear
icon will allow you to change the IP address of the wireless gateway so it matches the
host network.
