INTRODUCTION
2.1 Gateway
The gateway is an external, high performance
building automation multi-protocol gateway
that is preconfigured to automatically
communicate between Navien’s products (hereafter called “device”) connected to the gateway and automatically configures them for
LonWorks®.
It is not necessary to download any configuration files to support the required applications. The gateway is pre-loaded with tested profiles/
configurations for the supported devices.
WARNING
Only use screws supplied by SMC in the holes found on the back of the unit when attaching the optional DIN rail bracket. Use of any other
screws may damage the unit.
