The objective of this document is to establish a connection between a PC and the GEM allowing the
GEM firmware to be upgraded if needed and gaining access to the GEM Setup page. Tasks covered in
this manual are listed below.

Setting Communication Module to Factory Defaults. This provides a known IP address for initial
connection

Connecting a PC directly to the GEM for configuration purposes .

Establish a direct connection between a PC and the GEM. This enables the user to enter local
network information such as SSID, Password, etc., allowing the GEM to connect to a network

Connecting the GEM to a Network. Once the GEM is connected to a local network, the PC can
then connect to the same network

Connecting to the GEM’s Setup Interface. The setup interface is browser based. Once a PC
connects to the GEM via network, all GE settings may then be configured

Upgrading the GEM’s Firmware. A guide is provided to perform firmware upgrades to the GEM
S
TEPS
A typical setup procedure would consist of the following order of steps, although some scenarios may
differ.
1. Set communication module to factory default
2. Establish a WiFi connection between a PC and the GEM
3. Configure the ”SSID”, “Password”, etc. to create a WiFi connection between the GEM and a
local network
4. Connect the PC to the same network and establish a TCP/IP connection to the GEM over the
network
5. Upgrade the firmware if needed
6. Open the GEM Setup page with a browser
Once the GEM Setup page has been opened, then refer to the “GEM Configuration Manual” (Document
code: GEM-CFG) to proceed with setting up the GEM
