-Smart Sensor Platform and all the existing subdomains must be whitelisted in
the network for a successful communication and measurement report to the
Portal.
-Mobile network needs to have adequate signal strength. In the most demanding
locations, an extension USB cable or external antenna might be needed for the
USB modem/dongle.
Power supply:
-For PoE powering, in case PoE network is not available, a PoE injector (power
supply) is needed.
-PoE Injector must be 802.3af/at compliant.
-Recommended PoEs:
oProcet PT-PSE104GO-30-5, Indoor PoE Injector
oProcet PT-PSE108GBR-OT, Outdoor PoE Injector
-Additionally, the gateway can be also powered by a 12V - 2A adapter.
-See below a model for reference:
oARTESYN AD2412N3L-V, 24 Watt Power Adapter
Ethernet cable:
-1 CAT6 Ethernet cable, with a length of 50 meters maximum, is needed when
PoE, WIFI or mobile network is used.
-2 CAT6 Ethernet cables, with a length of 50 meters maximum, are needed when
LAN/Ethernet network is used in addition to a PoE Injector.
-1 CAT6 Ethernet cable is needed when a 12V adapter is used in a LAN/Ethernet
network.
Computer:
-A computer with WIFI adapter is needed for gateway configuration. A tablet
computer or mobile phone can also be used.
-Google Chrome web browser is recommended to be used.
USB Cellular Modem / Dongle
-The gateway has built in drivers for several USB dongles. For the list of
supported dongles please check the section 2.7 USB mobile dongle connection.
-A SIM card with Internet data plan.
-The gateway also supports the use of any USB powered WIFI modems.
Mounting:
-Flat head screwdriver for pole mounting.
-Phillips head screwdriver and a drill (if needed) for wall mounting.

2.2 Recommended location
Height:
-The recommended height for the gateway is 3-30 meters from ground level.
Lower levels are also acceptable, but the gateway Bluetooth range might be
shorter due to obstacles.
Orientation:
-The gateway has the best reception in the direction where the Cassia logo is
shown on its side. If the gateway has trouble connecting to a specific Smart
Sensor, it is recommended to rotate the gateway to point in that direction.

2.3 Gateway configuration
When the gateway is powered on, the multiple Green LEDs on the bottom of the gateway
turn ON. After bootup, the gateway will turn on the configuration WIFI hotspot. The
bootup takes about 30-60 seconds.
Configuration WIFI hotspot has SSID “cassia-XXXXXX”, where XXXXXX are the last 6
characters of the gateway’s MAC address. The MAC address can be found on the bottom
of the gateway. Password for this WIFI hotspot is the exact same as the SSID.
Connect to the WIFI hotspot with the device which will be used for configuration
(computer, phone or tablet) and open the web browser. Type 192.168.40.1 in the web
browser’s address field and press enter. The Cassia configuration page will open. During
the first login the default password needs to be changed. Default credentials are:
-Username: admin
-Old password: admin
Once logged in, the Status Page is shown. This page shows current operation mode and
connection status of the gateway. AC Online Time shows how long the gateway has been
connected to the AC (Access Controller) server. If no time is shown, it means that the
gateway does not have a connection to the AC server.
Access Controller server connection is needed for a successful Smart Sensor data
transfer.

If Cellular connection is used, the option Auto Recovery must be set to ON.
This option enables the gateway to do a power cycle of the 4G dongle when it is not
being able to provide a network connection anymore.
If all the information has been filled as shown above and the Wired, Wi-Fi or Cellular sec-
tions are configured according to your network specifications, please refer to 2.9 Verify-
ing the configuration to check if the connection has been successfully set-up.

In case dongle is used to provide internet through the USB slot of the gateway (Cellular
connection), please make sure the dongle is set to use 4G only (see an example in
“Figure 5 4G only network mode” below).
If left on Auto mode the gateway could end up not properly connecting to the internet,
needing to be power cycled to restore connection.

Press Apply at the bottom of the screen.
NOTE! Once the Apply button is pressed, the gateway WIFI adapter stops sharing the
WIFI hotspot and changes the connection to configured WIFI network. In case the DHCP
is used, the gateway has now a new IP address. This IP address is needed to reconnect to
the gateway, e.g. to check the Status Page or scan the devices within the gateway’s
range.
Local IT department can find out the gateway’s IP address by accessing the WIFI router
device list or by performing the network scan for IP addresses. In case a static IP is used,
the address is known.
Connect your computer, tablet or mobile phone to the same WIFI network as the
gateway is connected. Open a web browser and type the new IP address to the address
field and press enter. Access to gateway configuration pages is established again.
NOTE! If there was an error in SSID, password or IP address configurations, you cannot
access the gateway anymore. In this case the gateway isn’t shown in WIFI router device
list or in network scans.
Press the reset button at the bottom of the gateway for 10 seconds to reset the gateway
to factory default values, while the gateway is connected to power.

Insert the USB dongle with SIM card in the USB port at the top of the gateway, by
removing the lid. PIN query needs to be disabled from the SIM card.
After dongle installation, make sure to mount back the lid in the correct way by
locating the orientation pins on the cavities (see the two red dots on Figure 13 Correct
lid mounting position), to ensure proper water protection.
