Wireless Bluetooth Low Energy Gateway

Power Up of the Gateway

 

Attach the provided antennas. Power the unit by inserting the 

included Micro USB cable into the “Micro USB” power port or by 

connecting a PoE-enabled cable to PoE Port. Note: The ethernet 

port does not have network capabilities at present but is only 

used for PoE.

Upon power-up, the green “Power” LED will be flashing rapidly 

(See Fig 1). 

Connect

NOTE: If the gateway was previously paired to another Wi-Fi 

access point, you will need to reset the gateway. This will erase 

the Wi-Fi credentials and any previous sensor pairings. (See 

“Resetting the Gateway” on pg 3.)

Use your phone, tablet or laptop to 

follow the steps below. 
1. Open up the Wi-Fi settings on your 

mobile device or computer and 

select “bapi_gateway” from the list 

of available networks. If your device 

asks for a password or network 

security key, enter “changebp”.

2. Using the same device, open a web 

browser and enter “10.10.0.1” into the address bar, not the search bar. The gateway’s 

SoftAP screen will come up (Fig 2).

3. Click on the desired Wi-Fi access point (SSID) from the “Scan List” and enter the password 

for that network (Fig 3). Click Connect. 

4.  At this point, the various LEDs will flash for 15-30 seconds. The connection is complete 

when the green “Power” LED is the only LED that is flashing.  You can close your web 

browser window. If the amber “Wi-Fi” LED doesn’t go out and continues to blink, the 

connection has failed. See “Resetting the Gateway” on pg 3.

  Note: Should the gateway lose power or connection, it will attempt to rejoin the network on 

its own.

Powering Up and Connecting the Gateway

●  Gateway provides data via MQTT to the cloud
●  Each gateway supports up to 32 sensors that can be configured 

remotely via the gateway and BAPI’s WAM user interface

BAPI’s gateway receives the data from one or more sensors and 

provides the data to the cloud via MQTT using your local Wi-Fi 

connection. Sensors can be configured remotely via the gateway and 

BAPI’s WAM user interface.

The gateway sends a confirmation signal to each sensor upon a 

successful reception. If the sensor doesn’t receive this confirmation, 

then the sensor retains the readings in its onboard memory and 

transmits them once communication is re-established.

Note: A WAM subscription is necessary to view sensor data 

and adjust sensor settings. See “WAM and the WAM Website” 

on pg 3.
