1. Attach the antennas to the Franklin Module. The antenna with the white stripe
at the base should be on the left when looking at the front of the device (see
Figure 3).
2. Extend the tips of the antennas outward from the Module. There should be a
good distance between the tips (see Figure 4), but not so great that they are
flat).
3. Connect the USB cable between the USB port on the Gateway back panel and
the USB port on the front of the Franklin Module (see Figure 5).
Note:
The Gateway has 32 GB of onboard storage that it uses to continuously
record DVR video. You can add additional storage through an external storage
device attached to a USB hub. See the Appendix for more information.
4. Connect each camera’s video cable to a camera port on the back of the
Gateway.
5. Plug in the power to the Franklin Module (12V, 1A).
IMPORTANT: Do not use the Gateway’s power supply (which is larger) to
power up the Franklin module. Doing so may seriously damage the module.
6. Plug in the power to the Gateway (9V, 1.66 A).
7. Wait a few minutes for the power light on the front of the Gateway to flash
rapidly.
8. When the flashing slows to one second per pulse, proceed to the next page.
Note:
Although designed to operate over a cellular network, the Gateway can also
connect to the Internet via its Ethernet port. If an active Internet connection
is established over Ethernet, the device will use this connection and not 3G.
