the DIN rail adapter mounting hardware kit.
• Small Flathead Screwdriver - Required for the Phoenix wiring
connectors.
Requirements for Conguration
• USB A to USB Mini-B cable, shipped with the gateway, for
device conguration. This attaches directly to a PC.
• PC, running Windows 7, with an up-to-date copy of Chrome,

Mounting
The PXG900 can be panel-mounted vertically or horizontally, and fastens via four user-supplied screws on the rear plate. It can also be
attached via a DIN rail (the adapter is shipped with the gateway, along with appropriate mounting machine screws).
You can adjust the DIN rail adapter to allow vertical or horizontal mounting (default) by removing the two Phillips screws to the left
and right of the center pivot bolt and rotating the DIN mounting clip.

Connecting a PXG900 to the Ethernet LAN
The PXG900 has two 10/100/1000 Base T, RJ-45 connectors la-
beled Network 1 and Network 2. Rules for connecting a PXG900
to the Ethernet LAN:

Power Xpert Insight Gateway
Quick Start Guide
10
• If the PXG900 is connected directly to the local area network,
use Network 1.
• If a second PXG900 gateway or other Ethernet device needs
to be daisy-chained to the spare Ethernet connection on this
gateway, connect it to Network 2.
• The total length of any Ethernet cable run must not exceed
295.3 ft (90 m).
• If the gateway loses power, any devices connected to Net-
work 2 to bridge to the local area network will loose network
communication.
Conguring the Gateway
If you’ve installed the USB driver, you can connect your PC to the
PXG900 through the USB A to USB Mini-B cable.
To connect to the PXG900 web interface:
1. Open a browser and navigate to the following address:
http://192.168.200.101.
2. You’ll be prompted to enter a user ID and password. The
default for both is “admin.”
3. You should see something like the following gure.

Configuring Ethernet Access
Once Ethernet access is congured, the PXG900 web inter-
face is available via an Ethernet connection. Currently, the
PXG900 supports only IPv4 addressing. You can specify the IP
address for the gateway in one of two ways:
• DHCP, where the gateway is automatically assigned an IP
address by the DHCP server or router. If you choose this
approach, Eaton recommends that you use DHCP Reser-
vations so that you can ensure that the PXG900 is always
assigned the same IP address. If you don’t, neither the
PXG900 users nor any energy management software

Power Xpert Insight Gateway

11
connected to the PXG900 will be able to “nd it” after a
power interruption or reboot if the DHCP server provides a
dierent address.
• Static IP, where you specify a static IP address in the PXG900
setup screens. This is the recommended approach. If you
choose this approach note this IP address on the label,
publish it to the users, and make certain it’s reserved in your
network.
To edit the Ethernet settings:
1. On the network tab, click the Edit button.
2. Choose the gear icon at the right of the Eaton Power Xpert
bar.
3. Conguration is done in the sidebar, shown to the right.

To specify a static IP address:
1. Enter the IP Address for the PXG900.
2. Enter the IP address information for your network, including
the Subnet Mask, Gateway, and one or more DNS servers.
Separate the DNS server addresses with a comma.
3. Choose Save Conguration.
To use DHCP to assign an IP address:
1. Select DHCP Enabled.
2. Choose Save Conguration.
Choose Edit again to exit edit mode. After you’ve completed con-
guring an IP address (either through DHCP Reservations or as a
static IP), write this on the label under the connectors.
Settings
Under Settings, you can congure:
• Date and Time
• Localization
• Access Control (enable/disable ports and enable trusted
hosts)
• Modbus TCP (if enabled)
Look in the upper right of the screen to access Settings.
Preferences Tab
Date and Time
If time stamp accuracy on data is important to you, NTP syncroni-
zation is the best option. However, you’ll either need access to
the Internet or you’ll need to install an NTP server on your net-
work. The PXIG will periodically check the time and correct itself.
If you want to set the clock to match that of the PC you’re using
to congure the software, just choose this option. Otherwise, set
the time and date manually. The manual setting pop-out window
will also let you sync the gateway to your PC clock.

Power Xpert Insight Gateway
Quick Start Guide

Note: Make sure you set the time zone under Locale as
well.
Locale
Set this appropriately for your location and local date format
convention. Changing the time zone will not change the time
setting.
Network Access Tab
Access Control
Ethernet communications supports the usual ports for HTTP,
HTTPS, and Modbus TCP: 80, 443, and 502 respectively. You can
disable, enable, or change these ports. You can also set each
port so that it can only be used to access the PXG900 through a
trusted host name or IP addresses. If you do use trusted hosts,
be careful. You can set the gateway to use trusted hosts for HTTP
and HTTPS access, and if your PC isn’t at an address on the list
you could be “locked out.”
To add a trusted host:
1. Choose Add Trusted Host/IP Address.
2. Enter the name or address in the sidebar.

3. Select Trusted Only for the appropriate selection.
4. Save your changes.
Conguring Modbus TCP/IP
You enable the server under the Access control group (Modbus
TCP must be enabled to see Modbus TCP Server Conguration).
You can also change the TCP port. To enhance security, enable
Trusted Hosts and then add the IP address of each Modbus cli-
ent using Add Trusted Host/IP Address.
Under Modbus TCP Server Conguration, you can set up the
way the server responds to client requests. For example you can
allow the server to respond to write commands, where appropri-
ate, or not to allow them.
Conguring Device Communications
You can congure the PXG900’s Modbus ports and INCOM
port on the Network tab. Choose edit to change any of the port
congurations. You can access the port settings by choosing the
appropriate gear icon.
Modbus Serial Ports
You can set Modbus Ports 1 and 2 individually through their
respective gear icons. Set the serial port parameters for your
Modbus RTU network. You should only change the timeout
settings if absolutely necessary.

INCOM Port
Choose the gear icon to access the INCOM port serial settings.
Before connecting the PXG900 to either a twisted pair Modbus
or a twisted pair INCOM cable, make sure that you observe the
proper polarity when wiring the cable to one of the three-pin
Phoenix connectors provided. The PXG900 RS-485 ports are
clearly marked for the A(+), B(-) and CMN (common) connections.

You can connect up to 128 devices to the PXG900. The ports
have the following device limits:
• INCOM port – 64 devices
• COM1 port – 32 devices, supports Modbus RTU devices
• COM2 port – 32 devices, supports Modbus RTU devices
For more information on wiring an INCOM network, see the
Eaton Electrical Field Devices Communication Wiring Specication
(TD 17513) available at www.eaton.com/pxg.
To attach a network of INCOM devices to the PXG900PXG-
900PXG900ing resistor isn’t required at the Gateway.
1. Attach one of the three-pin Phoenix connectors shipped
with the PXG900 to the INCOM twisted pair cable.
2. Insert the connector into the INCOM port on the PXG900.
To attach a Modbus RTU network to the PXG900:
Note: If needed, add an external 100-ohm resistor.
1. Attach one of the three-pin Phoenix connectors shipped
with the PXG900 to the Modbus twisted pair cable.
2. Connect the Modbus cable to the COM1 or COM2 port of
the PXG900.
Adding Devices
After you’ve properly congured the serial ports and connected
the gateway to your serial networks, you can begin adding any
devices currently on that serial network. Adding devices, like port
conguration, is done on the Network tab.
The PXG900 helps you when adding devices, guiding you through
the initial setup steps:
To add either a Modbus or INCOM device:
1. Choose Edit.
2. Choose Add Device under the appropriate port.
3. In the sidebar, select the device type under Family.
4. Select the Model Series.
5. Select the device Model.
6. Enter a meaningful name for the device.
7. Enter the device address: 1-247 decimal for Modbus, 1-FFF
hexadecimal for INCOM.
8. Choose Save Device Conguration.
