7 Device Profile
The Device Profile screen performs two key functions. First, it is used to configure the Z4550’s LAN for either network
gateway or network client operation. Second, it is used to configure a number of parameters used by SkyRouter resident
applications for alarming, reporting, and formatting the dashboard display.
7.1 Device Network Profile
Gateway
In the Gateway mode of operation the Z4550 SkyRouter connects with the cellular network, obtains an IP address from
the cellular network, and routes traffic to and from LAN side connections using Network Address Translation (NAT).
Gateway mode is the default method of operation.
Client
The Client mode of operation allows the Z4550 to be connected, via Ethernet to an enterprise or home network. In this
mode of operation, the Z4550 can be set up to operate either as a DHCP client or with a static address on an established
network. Client mode can be a useful tool for loading updates or applications since in the client mode of operation
traffic moves through the corporate network instead of over the wireless network.
7.2 Application Parameters
Location
The location name that will be displayed on the dashboard, on SkyCloud, and in reports and alarms
Application Alarming
Enables or disables alarms, selects alarm delivery mechanisms, assigns email addresses and phone numbers for alarm
delivery, and assigns GPS/Location coordinates to alarms
Application Logging
Enables or disables application logging, enables or disables log deliver via email, selects a log delivery schedule, and
assigns email addresses of log recipients
Email Configuration
The Z4550 has a resident POP3 email server that is used to deliver alarms and logs. This panel is used to configure the
SkyRouter with email account information. This set up should be identical to setting up any email client such as Outlook
or Thunderbird.
Automation Display Groups
This panel is used to assign names to the display groups shown on the automation dashboard
Dashboard Options
This function is used to configure the number (1-5) of named display groups that will appear on a single row of the
dashboard.
