REMOTE ACCESS TCP/IP INTERFACE
Version 11/2017
GFE-TCP-WEB
CONFIGURATION MANUAL

General Description
Technical Specifications
GFE--TCP-WEB is a new interface forTCP/IP communication, which will bring new functionalities to JUNIOR V4, JUNO NET
panels. It uses our data-loop protocol and an external web-server to send and receive information from panel. In
this way, supervision over individual systems via web browser can be achievable easily.
Network and web-server configurations are defined through available USB connector. The following URL,
contains the webpage where remote access to panels can be configured and activated, USB
drivers and configuration software are also available for download.

Introduction
Connection Diagram
Interface power and communication is achieved via a 5way flat cable that's connected to a 5 pin molex connector available at
panels and interface.
Panel communication uses our data-loop protocol which is available differently according to the panel.

Dataloop is available as default in JUNIOR V4 panel range. If necessary it can be changed in Installation Menu of panel
Diagnostic mode as per below image.
Dataloop is permantly available atCON5 connector in J-NET-CON board.
Dataloop is permanently available at Data-Loop connector.
Additional Notes:
Both JUNIOR V4 & JUNO NET panels should have COMMS parameter set as 'Normal' as per below image.
Panel must be completely OFF when connecting/disconnecting 5way flat cable otherwise panel and/or interface could
be damaged.
NOTE: Panel should havefirmware 3.09build001P or higher for enhanced webpage usability.
NOTE:
JUNO NET panels with 4, 7, 10 & 13 Loops require a specific 5-way flat cable lead. Please contact your supplier
requesting it.
JUNO NET panels prior to 2009 with J-NET-CON board version 4.X also require the same specific 5-way flat cable lead.
Please contact your supplier requesting it.
Panels should have firmware 3.09 build001P or higher for enhanced webpage usability.

GFE-TCP-WEB - CONFIGURATION MANUAL - 11/2017
CONFIGURATION: INTERFACE
The interface is supplied with a default configuration, and it's only necessary to take the steps below:
This automatic process requires that DHCP is enabled in local network, which is normally activated on the
router that connects to internet.
1) Take note of‘Client ID’ and‘Channel’values described in interface label.
2) Turn panel power OFF (including batteries).
3) Connect 5 way flat cable between interface and panel as per indicated in‘Connection Diagram’section of this manual.
4) Connect interface to local network using RJ45 connector.
5) Turn panel power ON
6) Check if red and yellow Led’s are blinking.This behaviour is a visual indication of active communication with server.
7) Go to chapter‘Configuration:Webpage’and insert interface‘Client ID’ and‘Channel’in the corresponding fields.
8) Optional: Assign a name to installation and press‘Save’.
9) Press‘Connect’to start communication with panel.
Refer to manual section‘Manual Configuration: Software’in case it’s necessary to configure interface manually.

GFE-TCP-WEB - CONFIGURATION MANUAL - 11/2017
Manual Configuration: Software
Connect interface to computer using only USB connector (no other cable should be connected). Regarding USB driver
installation, computers with Windows 10 do not require additional steps, while remainder Windows operating systems drivers
must be loaded in order to create a virtual COM (VCOM). Necessary drivers are available for download in our web page
. Interface communication is put in place via a 'serial port emulator'. We will use 'PuTTY' during next
steps and it's also available in installation package.
After connecting GFE-TCP-WEB to computer, check device manager to find number of COM port attributed to interface.
At this stage please execute 'PuTTY' directly available from GFE-TCP-WEB homepage indicated above, and select options
highlighted in bellow screenshot followed by 'open':
Next steps will be performed in console window created after clicking 'open' at PuTTY.

Manual Configuration: Procedure
Execute below commands to configure network and web-server parameters:
NOTE:
Disable the DHCP Client: wdhc=0 and press ENTER
Set Network IP: wip4=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx and press ENTER
NOTE:
> If you want to configure DHCP again enter the following command: wdhc = 1 and press ENTER
IP address, Subnet Mask and gateway must be introduced in its complete form, including zeros on the
left (ex: 192.168.001.020)
'Client ID' and 'CHANNEL 1' parameters are necessary during webpage configuration steps.
>
>
> Set SubNetMask: wsu4=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx and press ENTER
> Set Gateway: wga4=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx and press ENTER
> Set Channel 1: wch1=xxxxx and press ENTER (Note: channel name must have 5 characteres).
With command 'rdat=' it's possible to check all sent parameters which can be redefined individually. Please find below
screenshots of above steps and 'rdat=' commands.
After sucessufully completion of above steps, disconnect USB cable, connect GFE-TCP-WEB interface to desired panel and
network cable.
