Register Gateway and Sensor on Network Server
Register your Sensor (with OTAA) and Gateway on the Network Server. (Follow the Tektelic

Apply power to the Gateway using either DC power or POE
a.
For DC power, apply 48VDC power to the
Kona Mega Gateway
. Ensure that the
current-limit from the power supply is set to
1A or greater.
Current-draw is approximately
0.2A during initialization, and 0.5A when initialization is complete. (If no current is detect-
ed, the polarity of the DC power cable connection may be reversed, or the power source
may not be configured properly.)
b.
For POE, the injector must support 56VDC output and can supply 0.8A or greater of
current.
Module Bootup
Bootup time of the Gateway is approximately 2 minutes. During bootup, the status LED
flashes GREEN.
Module status LED
After bootup, the status LED will flash RED. The LED will remain flashing RED until the
Gateway receives a downlink-packet from the Network Server. Upon reception of a down-
link-packet from the Network Server, the LED will change to SOLID GREEN.
(Refer to table
1 for a list of different LED states).
