Step
2:
Connect
the
ConnectPort
X4
®
to
your
Local
Network
To
begin
setting
up
your
iDigi
Gateway
Development
Kit
you
will
need
to
connect
and
power
on
the
ConnectPort
X4,
and
form
your
XBee
network.
To
do
so,
follow
these
steps:
Note:
If
you
have
additional
XBee/ZigBee
devices,
for
the
best
kit
experience,
we
recommend
that
you
power
down
or
disable
joining
on
other
XBee/ZigBee
PANs
in
the
area
before
beginning
this
step.
If
you
are
unable
to
do
this
other
devices
might
join
the
kit
network
and
create
interference
when
deploying
your
iDigi
Dia
project.
You
could
also
encounter
issues
connecting
the
XBee
Sensor
and
XBee
Smart
Plug
to
the
ConnectPort
X4
as
they
are
configured
to
join
any
available
PAN.
1.
Remove
the
ConnectPort
X4
from
the
box
and
attach
the
XBee
antenna
to
the
ConnectPort
X4.
2.
Connect
one
end
of
the
Ethernet
cable
to
the
ConnectPortX4,
and
the
other
end
to
your
Ethernet
switch
(as
shown
below).
