3.2 Gateway Communication
Drivers for the USB gateways are included the SensorConnect software installation. With the
software installed, the USB gateway will be detected automatically whenever the gateway is
plugged in.
1. Power is applied to the gateway through the USB connection. Verify the gateway
status indicator is illuminated, showing the gateway is connected and powered on.
2. Open the SensorConnect™ software.
3. The gateway should appear in the Controller window automatically with a
communication port assignment. If the gateway is not automatically discovered,
verify the port is active on the host computer, and then remove and re-insert the USB
connector.

the automatic node discovery on the same frequency, automatic node discovery on a different
frequency, and add node manually.
