Configuration/Operation
8. Ports101, 102; 103,104; 105,106; and 107,108 are
digital output ports. The output voltage is 12VDC;
50mA. They can operate buzzers, warning lights
and other similar devices. They can also be
connected to an extension unit and used as
programmable power outlets.
9. Ports 1, 2 and 3, 4 are resistance type analog
input ports. The input resistance ranges from
2~205KΩ. The ports have 1024 levels of
resolution. With appropriate drivers, they can be
connected to thermistor or other
resistance-output sensors (such as CDS sensors).
10. Ports 201,202 are digital input ports (dry contact).
They can be connected to On/Off-type output
sensors (such as intrusion, access control, smoke,
and leakage sensors).
Ì
11. Ports 31, 32 are voltage-type analog input ports.
The input voltage ranges from 0~5VDC. The ports
have 1024 levels of resolution. With appropriate
drivers, they can be connected to sensors with
0~5 VDC output voltage, such as AC/DC voltage
sensors, current sensors and humidity sensors.

Hardware - Basic Installation
02
> Power Connection
1. Connect one end of the bundled Power Adapter to
the AC power source and the other end to the AC
power source inlet on the rear panel.
2. Turn on the GN0116's power switch.
The GN0116 supports two types of network
connections – over the Ethernet or through RS-232.
RS-232 can be connected to a modem to support a
Dial-up connection. It can also be connected directly
to the computer COM Port so commands can be issued
through the RS-232 Port or for setting the Logic
Configuration and Proxy function.
> Ethernet Connection
If the Ethernet connection is used, connect the
network cable into the RJ-45 port to connect the
GN0116 to the network.
Ì
> RS-232 Connection
If you choose to use the RS-232 connection, connect
the RJ-45 connector on the bundled RS-232-to-RJ-45
cable to the port marked as 232C on the panel and the
RS-232 to the corresponding device (Computer COM
port or the MODEM port); as the demonstrator is using
a notebook computer, an additional ATEN UC232A was
used to convert the RS-232 signal to USB so it can be
passed to the notebook computer through the USB
interface.
Note: You may choose between an Ethernet or RS-232
connection. If you choose the Ethernet connection
then there is no need to connect the RS-232 port.

Installation Guide

IP Setting
Once the basic hardware installation is complete, an IP
address must be acquired/set for the GN0116 to allow
access.
Ì
Insert the bundled software CD and install the GN0116
software on the computer.
03
Once installation is complete, find the
Altusen\GN0116V1.6\FIrmwares\Monitor directory and
run the Monitor program.
The program will automatically scan all devices on the
Local Area Network (LAN) and list their IP addresses.
Software Installation
Ì
The ATEN GN0116 offers three types of interface.
Choose the type suitable for your environment to use
for configuration and administration.
yEmbedded Browser – Log in directly using the IP
address found by the Monitor program.
yssConsole – Bundled software that offers a
specially designed user interface.
yExternal Guardian Monitor Center Server –
Installed on a server in the same network segment.
The administrator can manage the device through
a browser.
*Please see the User Manual for a description of each
user interface
> Guardian Monitor Center (GMC)
The demonstrator chose the Guardian Monitor Center
(GMC) software for this demonstration as it has more
features and a more user-friendly interface (available
as free download from the ATEN website).
As the GMC uses a client-based structure, you need a
computer to act as the server for this software and the
computer must be on the same LAN segment as the
GN0116.

Guardian Monitor Center network diagram:
After downloading and installing the Guardian
Monitor Center on the computer*, use the IP address
of the "installation computer" to open the browser
interface for GMC.
Once the demonstrator installs the software, s/he can
use the monitor connected to the server computer
(with GMC installed) and the client on the notebook to
open the browser as shown below.
*Please see the User Manual for the actual software
installation procedures
After logging in and completing the device
configuration process (the GMC software will find all
GN0116 devices on the same network segment), the
notebook client can be used to view the status of all
GN0116 ports.
Sensors Installation
Ì
As mentioned in the Front View/ Rear View
introduction, the GN0116 mainly uses the four RJ-45
ports on the rear panel to connect to sensors or other
devices. Up to eight Digital Output (ports 101 ~ 108),
two Digital Inputs (ports 201 & 202) and six Analog
Inputs (including 4 resistor-types (ports 1 - 4) and two
voltage-types (31 & 32)) can be connected.
Note: The resistor-type and voltage-type ports must be
connected correctly or it will damage your system.

>Temperature Sensors
05
The GN0116 includes two sets of temperature sensors.
Each set contains two sensors.
The included temperature sensors are of the Analog
Input type so they can be connected to ports 1 & 2 and
3 & 4.
>Smoke Detector / Beeper / Reed Switch
Apart from the bundled sensors, with the appropriate
cabling the GN0116 can also support a wide variety of
sensors available on the market.
For this demonstration, three sensor/alert devices
were chosen: Smoke Detector, Beeper and Reed
Switch.
Smoke Detector Beeper Reed Switch
As the sensors are connected to the GN01167 via a
RJ-45 port, a UTP cable with the RJ-45 connector is
needed to connect the sensors.
To make the connection, strip the UTP wiring then
connect each wire to their respective sensor. Please
see the attached wire/PIN reference table for details.
Once the three sensor/alarm devices have been
connected to the UTP cable, insert the RJ-45 connector
to the 201/202 Digital Input ports.

> Voltage Detector / Current Detector / Humidity
Sensor
Apart from the bundled sensors and devices sold on
the market, ATEN also offers three types of
easy-to-install sensors as options.
Here the demonstrator will demonstrate how to install
the EA2110 current detector and voltage detection
using the EA2310.
EA2110/EA2210/EA2310 Sensor Boxes
Sensors are provided with a standard GN0116 package,
otherwise, ATEN offers the following models:
EA2110
1 x AC Current Sensor
and 1 x Humidity Sensor
EA2210
2 x AC Current Sensors
EA2310
1 x AC Current Sensor
and 1 x AC Voltage Sensor
EA2110 - Current Detector
The EA2110 package includes one set of AC Current
Sensor + Cable. You can connect the clip-on sensor
device on one end of the cable to the power wire in
the power distribution box, or strip the AC power
cable and then clip it to any wire other than the
grounding one.
Stripping the clip-on sensor device.
Place the power wire on the clip-on sensor device.
Close the clip-on device to grip the wire.
