Installation:
It’s recommended that the
GR-7601
Ethernet Gateway is positioned at a central point of the entire
wireless emergency lighting installation. At least 2 or 3 luminaires should be inside the signal range
of the Gateway in order to create alternative routes for re-transmitting messages to other devices
inside their own range.
See next schematic 1:
Mounting:
Install the device to a stable and visible position which has access to mains power and Local Area
Network (Ethernet). It is recommended that while fitted, the LED indications are visible to a
technician.
Avoid metallic surfaces, as they can affect RF signal strength. Ensure that there is not any severe
RF blocking due to structural design.
Use the 2 mounting holes to fit the base on a vertical wall (concrete/brick/wood) and the embedded
spirit level to make fine (horizontal) adjustments. Tighten the mounting screws when done.
Connect the mains power cables. See Wiring and Dimension schematic in page 4.
Commissioning:
In order to setup the GR-7601 Ethernet Gateway and create a new wireless emergency lighting
network, you will have to follow the following steps:
Connect the
onfigure its IP address (via webserver).
Configure the master PC’s IP and MAC address (via webserver).
Run the GR-7600 PC software and setup the new network (Network Configuration Wizard) in
order to modify the SID and the RF Channel of the wireless network and isolate it from other
nearby wireless networks.
