Note: This user guide is intended for the AirLink LS300 and the AirLink GX

Series devices. If you have an AirLink ES440, refer to the ALEOS Software

Configuration User Guide for the AirLInk ES440.

Overview

ACEmanager™ is the free, web-based utility used to manage and

configure the AirLink

device. It is a web application integrated in the

ALEOS™ software that runs on the AirLink device. AirLink

Embedded Operating System (ALEOS) is purpose-built to maintain a

wireless connection and to configure the gateway to the needs of the

system. ACEmanager provides comprehensive configuration,

monitoring, and control functionality to all AirLink gateways and

routers.

ACEmanager enables you to:

• Login and configure device parameters

• Adjust network settings

• Change security settings

• Update events reporting and control outputs

• Update ALEOS software and radio module firmware

• Copy configuration settings to other AirLink devices

Since ACEmanager can be accessed remotely over-the-air as well as

locally, the many features of ALEOS can be managed from any

location.

An ALEOS configuration template can be created using

ACEmanager, after a single device is configured and installed, to

program other AirLink gateways with the same configuration values.

This enables quick, accurate deployment of large pools of devices.
