Device Features
WI-FI Option
For VersaGateway models that support Wi-Fi (VCG-W-X-X), a Wi-Fi connection is available for using Modbus TCP, Programming Port
or VersaCloud M2M Connectivity.
WI-FI ANTENNA
For Wi-Fi supporting models of VersaGateway, the unit ships with a loose - packed antenna that must be installed before the Wi-Fi
will be able to function. Refer to Figure 1-5, Item 12 for the location of the Antennal plug-in connection on the VersaGateway.
If the VersaGateway will be installed in an open-air environment or an plastic / fiberglass enclosure, the antenna may be
directly mounted to the VersaGateway. Screw the antenna into position (See Figure 1-5, Item 12).
If the VersaGateway is to mounted in a metal enclosure (or any box/enclosure that may block the Wi-Fi signal), the
antenna will need to be mounted external to the box / enclosure that could block the Wi-Fi signal. Externally connecting
the antenna in this method will require additional cables and a bulk-head fitting (not included). Refer to Figure 2-15 for
mounting method examples.
When mounting antennas, Antennas must be electrically isolated from panel ground / common. If not isolated, damage
to the VersaGateway device will result. When using multiple communication antennas (Wi-Fi, Cellular), sufficient
spacing must be kept between them to prevent interference between them. If interference is suspected, increase the
space between the antennas.
