Once the IP gateway is functional and all transmitter TXIDs have been 

registered, the LEDs will function as follows:

• Green: Blinks when powering up; solid when power up is complete.
• Orange: Blinks while establishing an IP connection; solid when IP 

connected.

• Red: Blinks upon message receipt from any transmitter.

3 Tips and Notes

3.1 Installation Notes

• These products are designed to be maintained by professional 

technicians.

• Products are tested for indoor use.
• Inovonics recommends registering and testing end devices prior to 

installation, using a floor plan or something similar to indicate 

installation locations. Consider marking or applying descriptive labels 

to the end device cases to ensure proper installation. Conduct a site 

survey with an Inovonics survey kit prior to installation to assist with 

RF gateway, repeater and end device placement.

• Use a brand name USB flash drive with a FAT32 (vfat) filesystem for 

configuration.

• The IP gateway configuration file is YAML formatted. See yaml.org 

for details.

• If using line power, keep cable length to less than 3 meters to 

minimize noise pickup.

• To resolve connectivity issues, check for loose/disconnected cabling, 

ensure power to Ethernet routers and/or switches, and connect a 

laptop to the Ethernet cable attached to the IP gateway’s RJ45 port 

and attempt to open a web site. If you are still unable to establish an 

Internet connection, contact a facility IT representative.

• Metal will reduce radio frequency (RF) range. Mount the IP gateway 

in a location removed from metal, including duct work, wire mesh 

screens, IT closets, metal boxes, and etc. For additional information, 

see the "EchoStream Device Installation Recommendation" tech 

note at www.inovonics.com.

• The EchoStream system should be tested regularly to ensure 

operation. To test, place the system in test mode, activate an end 

device, and ensure an appropriate response.
