Configuration of Special Gateway Models:
Special Gateways communicate with IBM on COM1 / PLC1 port for configuration of Gateway.
GWY-01, GWY-02, GWY-05 and GWY-06 have RS232 PLC1 port and need a “Y” Cable, similar to the cable
shown in the figure below, for configuration. One end of the cable connects to Gateway which has both power
and communication signals, the second end connects to the device (PLC) for power and the third end
connects to IBM PC for communication. Power cable between PLC and Gateway depends on the PLC used.
User can initiate IBM communication by leaving PLC ATTACH pin open. There is NO TIME-OUT for these
models. Use Gateway Setup V1.xxx for creating and downloading configuration.
GWY-04 and GWY-08 have RS485 PLC1 port hence RS232 to RS485 converter cable is required for Gate-
way Configuration. User can initiate IBM communication by leaving PLC ATTACH pin open. There is NO
TIME-OUT for these models. Use Gateway Setup V1.xxx for creating and downloading configuration.
