Overview
Once you've gone through all instructions on Getting Started, the Gateway software will
start sending sensor data for display, processing and triggering actions. The sensor board
can be powered using a USB cable (recommended) connected to the Gateway or from a
coin cell battery. Note: power consumption of the Silicon Labs TB2 means a coin cell will
only last one or two days. Once powered on, the Gateway will boot and connect to the
sensor board using Bluetooth Low Energy and begin transmitting data to the specified 3D
model through the wired or wireless internet connection.
Wired Ethernet
Connect an Ethernet cable to either ethernet ports - only DHCP is supported at this time.
Both hot and cold plug is supported. Also - please note if WiFi AND wired Ethernet are
connected at the same time, unpredictable behavior can result. At power-on, the Gateway
will retrieve the time/date, establish a connection to Google Cloud and begin sampling the
sensors and transmitting data. Readings will start appearing in the UrsaLeo Cloud Console
a few seconds later.
