Connecting the Gateway to a Router or Computer
To connect the Gateway to a router:
u
Connect a standard Ethernet cable from the Gateway Ethernet port to
an open network port on your router.
Do not connect the Gateway to the router port labeled “Internet” or
“WAN.”
To connect the Gateway directly to a computer:
u
Connect a crossover cable from the Gateway Ethernet port to an open
network port on your computer.
Connecting the Gateway to the Xanbus Network
A Xanbus network consists of the following components:
•
Xanbus-enabled devices—these include the Gateway, the GT
Inverter, the XW Series Inverter/Charger, XW Automatic Generator
Start (AGS), System Control Panel (SCP), and XW Charge
Controller. The maximum number of devices on the network depends
on the type of device. For example, the Gateway can monitor a
network consisting of up to 20 GT Inverters (up to five GT Inverters if
a GT Solar Inverter Monitor is installed) or an XW Power System
with up to three XW Inverter/Chargers, two Charge Controllers, an
AGS, SCP, and Gateway. (This is the current maximum size of an
XW Power System. Future XW releases will allow more than three
XW Series Inverter/Chargers to operate in a Xanbus network.)
In systems that combine GT and XW inverters, treat an XW Series
Inverter/Charger as the equivalent of four GT Inverters. XW inverters
transmit up to four times as much network data as a GT Inverter.
•
Xanbus power supply—the inverter or inverter/charger provides
network power.
Important:
During setup, a wired connection between the Gateway and the
router is required. During configuration, the Gateway can be switched to wireless
mode and the network cable can be removed. See “Configuring Wireless Mode”
on page 3–12.
Important:
Connecting the Gateway to the Xanbus network also applies
power to the Gateway. Before making the final connection to the Gateway, see
“Applying Power to the Gateway” on page 2–11.
