Internet connection with cable
Connect the gateway to the internet via a router with a standard Ethernet Cat5e patch cable.
No setup of the router is required apart from the fact that it must have internet connection. The
gateway will automatically establish a connection to the internet and the cloud through the router.
Wireless internet connection
It is recommended that you order the gateway with an integral SIM card. You can install a SIM card
yourself, but it is a somewhat complicated and time consuming task.
When you purchase a gateway with an integral SIM card, it will automatically connect to the internet
and the cloud once it has been plugged in.
If the attached aerial does not reach, it is possible to connect an external aerial, which will provide a
better signal.
Connection to the unit
For most products Modbus connections to Nilan’s units take place via the 8 pole plug for the control
panel. See details in the installation instructions for the unit.

The plug enables you to fasten all the wires with a cable binder.
If you cannot connect Modbus via the control panel plug, you can connect Modbus directly on the circuit
board of the unit in accordance with the diagram below. For further information, see the wiring
diagram for the unit.
