•Can send SMS traps throught GSM network.
•IQLocator configuration utility allowing to autodiscovery your IQsocket
devices within LAN network, setup IP address and upgrade firmware
•Automatic control based on evaluation of ICMP packet loss with up to
three independent rules – watchdog function
•Automatic control based on day of week and time – scheduler function
•Real time clock synchronized using N P protocol
•On board temperature sensor to monitor internal temperature
•Support remote firmware upgrade
•Event log storing up to last 50 events, such as socket on/off changes,
device startups, LAN port connectivity, firmware upgrade etc.
•iny footprint firmware is efficiently coded in C/assembler, there is no
Linux or other operating system inside, so startup times are really
short (<3sec) and tcpip stack is clean with no hidden bugs ;-)

2. Installation
Once you plug your IQsocket IQ S-GI500 into a live
electric socket, it become powered on and starts
operation.
You can verify it by observing status of the LEDs:
•Once AC power is connected, all three LED
indicators will blink shortly and internal self-
test is performed. hen, if everything is ok,
the Power LED (Red) will shine permanenelty. If SIM card is fully
operating then Power LED shine/blinks Blue.
•LINK/AC (Green) – solid light indicated established Ethernet link,
blanked for short time when an Ethernet activity occurs
•he Output LED (Yellow) indicates state of output socket. Sold light
means socket is active – appliance plugged into the output socket is
operating and vice versa.
Your IQ S-GI500 is now ready for use.
IQsocket IQ S-GI500 is equipped with an internal web server, which provides
an easy to use, intuitive and convenient way of management. You can both set
up configuration and operation parameters and get information about device’s
status.
In order to access the web interface, it is necessary to setup IP network
address on your PC properly.
Default IP address of the IQsocket IQ S-GI500 is 192.168.0.100, network
mask 255.255.255.0.
In order to access your IQ S-GI500, it is necessary to setup IP address of your
computer, connected to the same Ethernet network as the IQ S-GI500
properly – in this case set the IP address of the network adapter to
192.168.11, mask 255.255.255.0.
You can also change the IP address of your IQ S-GI500 using IQLocator utility,
Once you have properly set IP address of your PC, open the address of your
IQ S-GI500 (default 192.168.0.100) in your favorite internet browser:
If everything is ok, status page will be displayed.

2.1 Instalation rules for dual radio device
You are obliged to follow the following rules during instalation of any radio
device working in duplex mode.
•Use an antenna with a higher gain and lower SVR in case of low signal
level.
•Do not instal your antenna near metal objects.
•Do not instal your device in the environment which can limit the signal
level, not in metal boxes!
•Your antenna cannot be directed towards the internal device electronics.
Otherwise, we cannot guarantee that your device will work properly.
In order to place your antenna properly, please use the grey area indicated at
the front panel of your device.
3. Status page
Provides summary of device status:
Explanation of parameters:

Page 6 of 28
Section System information provide basic status information, such as Device
name and Location, info on time, firmware version, Ethernet MAC address and
temperature reading of internal temperature sensor.
Section Last event provides date/time of last change of socket state and
current socket state.
Socket status – Turned ON , Turned OFF, Restarted.
GSM status – GSM is disabled,Preparing GSM,SIMcard is not inserted,
SIMcard is not ready, Searching ..., Logged in, Signal : 90 %.
Section Rules status informs about currently active automatic rules evaluating
ICMP packet loss to chosen hosts.

3. Network configuration
Here you can configure networking and security parameters:
IP address
You can setup IP networking parameters such as IP address, Network mask
Default Gateway, DNS servers; please ensure to enter proper values. Please
note it is necessary to define a fixed IP address even if case you are using a
DHCP environment.
Note…
When your local network is usin private addresses behind
a NAT router and you would like to make your IQTS-GI500
accessible from the Internet, it is necessary to setup port
mappin (forwardin , server rule) in your router for the IP
address assi ned to IQTS-GI500 and selected ports, e. .
port TCP 80 for accessin web interface.
SOHO example: Your network contains a modem/router with NA for internet
access, having IP address 192.168.1.254. Simply find an unused IP address
from the private network range it use (192.168.1.1-192.168.1.253) e.g.

Page 8 of 28
192.168.1.200, double check it is not used e.g. by using Ping command from
your PC:
C:\>ping 192.168.1.200
Pinging 192.168.1.200 with 32 bytes of data:
Request timed out.
hen assign the 192.168.1.200 to the IQ S-GI500 by either IQLocator utility
or by web interface and use address of the router (192.168.1.254) in both
Gateway and DNS fields.
NTP setup
IQ S-GI500 can synchronize its clock from an NTP (Network ime Protocol)
server, please don’t forget also to define time zone. Please note N P feature
will work only if IQ S-GI500 will have access to the Internet.
Note…
It is hi hly recommended define NTP properly and allow
your IQTS-GI500 accessin the Internet; otherwise
lo in and scheduler feature can’t work properly.
Password protection
You can change/define a login username and password for protecting access to
web interface. It comes with no password by default.
Note…
If you want to disable password protection, enter blank
lo in password.
You can also activate exception from password protection for pages status.xml
and/or status/html – when exceptions are active, those pages will be then
always available without password, which is useful for further processing of the
status information e.g. by scripts.

HTTP port
It is possible to change port for the web interface from default value 80 by
entering new value to HTTP port field.
SNMP
SNMP can be deactivated by unchecking the SNMP checkbox, it is active by
default. You can change passwords for SNMP read and write communities
(default value is “public”). When there is an output control event resulting from
assessment of automatic packet loss rules – the watchdog feature; IQ S-
GI500 can send SNMP trap messages to defined IP address besides operating
the relay of the socket, simply check particular check boxes Relay and/or Send
TRAP.
he SNMP time for restart defines how long is socket turned off when restart
command is issued via SNMP.
Add log events
You can select, which events to write into the event log: Power UP will write
event at every device startup and time has been successfully synchronized
from N P server; Ethernet LINK will write event at every time when Ethernet
link has been established.
Output socket state after startup
You can choice which state will have output socket after device will be powered
on: to be off, on, or to remember last state before device has been turned
off/power has been lost.

4. Test rules – watchdog function.
Basically, you can define up to three test rules, two with numerical IP address
of evaluated host, third rule can be defined using host name, and it’s IP
address will be resolved via DNS. Each rule is sending periodically ICMP test
packets to the host and when number of received ICMP replies is lower than
allowed packet loss, rule will generate request for output control event, which
can lead to restart of the output socket, sending of SNMP trap or both,
depending on configuration. Finally, output control event is performed using
logical OR or logical AND operations over the results (output control event
requests) of particular rules.
Defining rules
Each rule can be enabled or disabled by checking the checkbox. Enter IP
address (Rule 1, Rule 2) or host name in case of the Rule 3, then size of ICMP
frames, maximum allowed packet loss in % and Packet timeout interval, time
