4 GATEWAY CONFIGURATION
CONNECTION TO THE COMPUTER – START OF WORK
The gateway is configured when connected to a computer using a terminal program.
Connection is possible, for example, with a mass-market PuTTY program. There are two ways
of connection to the gateway – via a serial port or SSH.
1.
Connection via a serial port
In case of a serial port, connect the gateway to a personal computer with a mini-USB
connector by a cable. On the board, the required port is designated as USB_DBG (Fig. 3.1 (1)).
Next, connect to a virtual COM port by installing the driver for MCP2200. "Ports (COM and
LPT)" menu appears at the device manager.
Search “USB Serial Port” in the “Ports” menu and see its number.
