• Solar Power supply (Ref: BGTW-4G-SOLAR-OUT)
DC Power:
The solar power controller can work between 13VDC to 20VDC, user can use an AC/DC power
adapter in this voltage rating.
If the DC Voltage is less than 13VDC, the provided voltage will not be enough to power
the Solar Power Manager
2: Use the provided antennas cables and power supply cable to connect to the appropriate
connectors as shown below in the gure.

3. Open the box enclosure and use the Ethernet cable to connect your Laptop to the router in
order to congure the IoT Gateway and get it ready for remote monitoring, as well to insert
SIM card. Use a screwdriver to remove the black lid and properly insert the SIM card.
4. Don’t forget to turn On the switch mode box by pushing the ON/OFF push buton at the top
left corner, in order to charge the Lead-Acid Battery and get the gateway ready for congura-
tion.

4. Use an ethernet cable to connect the router inside the IOT Gateway® to your laptop.
• Plug the power adapter to your 4G Router, then use an ethernet cable and plug it into the
LAN Ethernet port of your Conguration PC.

6. DEFAULT SETTINGS
The Default 4G Gateway® IP address is 192.168.1.1
1. Assign a static IP address to your PC within the same subnetwork as your BeanGateway®
• In the search bar tap change ethernet settings, then click on open
• Click on change Adapter settings

13
BeanGateway
• Right click on the Etherner device with is connected to your IOT Gateway, choose Propreties
• Double click on Internet Protocol Version4 (TCP/IPv4)

14
BeanGateway
• Enter the owing settings:
- Enter any ip in the form of 192.168.1.XXX where XXX is a number from 2 to 254 (except
243 which is the router IP address).
- Enter 255.255.255.0 for your subnet mask
- The default 4G gateway must come with the same IP address that your 4G Router
192.168.1.243
- Finally enter primary DNS server IP , the same than your 4G Router IP 192.168.1.243
- Click on OK validate your conguration
• Once your PC and IOT Gaetway® are connected to the same network, you can easily have
access to the router.

7. HOW TO SETUP A REMOTE ACCESS IN 4 STEPS (EXAMPLE OF IP FORWARDING METHOD)
Before to start to congure your remote access, make sure your Ofce router/ASDL Box
should come with Fixed Public IP address to avoid losing the BeanGateway® whenever
it reboots for any reason.
How to get a xed public IP:
• If you are using an ADSL Router at your ofce: you can ask to your ADSL Router
provider to
allocate you a xed public IP
• You can purchase a Data SIM card with xed public IP from your ISP (Example: Olivia
Wireless)
• If you are using a standard SIM card, some PORTS can be blocked by the ISP.
It’s not mandatory to use a SIM card with xed public IP on the monitoring site.

BeanGateway
7.1 STEP 1: AT YOUR OFFICE, CONFIGURE YOUR FIREWALL FOR REMOTE ACCESS
You have to enable Routing and Remote Access option for both Private and Public networks,
communication through the rewall.
7.2 STEP 2: AT YOUR OFFICE, CONFIGURE IP FORWARDING RULES
7.2.1 Example with ADSL MODEM (NAT ROUTER Conguration)
1• From your Ofce PC, search for your Public IP address (ex: search for MyIP on Google).

17
BeanGateway
2• Setup a Port Forwarding conguration on your Router (each router brand has its own con-
guration interface).
Example 1: GlobalNet ADSL Router Webserver conguration (North Africa)
Make sure that no antivirus/rewall is blocking the network activity between the
BeanGateway® and the BeanScape® software.

BeanGateway
Example 2: Fritze Box (Germany)
Please be aware if the public IP Address
of your ADSL Box is not xed, you will
lose the connection between the Bean-
Gateway® and your Monitoring PC (at
the ofce), whenever the router reboots.
If you are not sure to have a xed public
IP, we suggest you use a 4G Router and a
SIM Card with a xed public IP.
