Introduction

The SIG-0 Mini-Gateway is a communication bridge that connects a powered RS-232 hub and a TCP 

socket to facilitate communication between the RS-232 and network devices. The SIG-0 must receive power 

through the RJ45 serial connection cable from a compatible device such as Model 1798. Configure and store 

data directly on the device via the integrated microSD port or serial commands. The device can be mounted 

directly to a flat surface using the mounted flanges.

 Features

•  Serves as a communication bridge between an RS-232 device and a network device.
•  Powered via RS-232 connection (requires compatible power injector such as 1798).
•  Able to load, configure, and store information via serial commands or a configuration file on a microSD card.
•  Packages incoming RS-232 data for export to the controlled device.
•  SIG-0 device is able to be configured via RS-232 port after entering configuration mode.
•  LED indicator to confirm network connection.
•  Update firmware via microSD.

Configuration Methods

MicroSD Configuration

The SIG-0 accepts configuration commands from a microSD card on boot. 
•  Create an empty text file in the root directory of a microSD Card titled ‘AacConfig.txt.
•  In the AacConfig file, add any configuration commands you would normally send via RS-232 in 

Configuration mode as a new line (see below).

•  Insert the microSD card into the unpowered device, then apply power. The configuration will then be 

loaded into flash memory on boot until the microSD is removed.

NOTE:

 You will not be able to use the device until the microSD is removed.
