nitlink-ethernet-gateway
2. Ethernet Gateway Controls
RP SMA Antenna ConnectorEthernet PortPower Plug Control Button
Back Panel
Using the Control Button:
1) A short press will trigger the gateway to immediately send all stored sensor
messages to the online system and download any pending system messages
to deliver to the sensors. (The default heartbeat for the Ethernet gateway is 5
minutes.)
2) Press and hold to reset the gateway to factory settings. Factory settings will be
reset to defaults, including the heartbeat setting of 5 minutes on both the gateway
and in the online system. DHCP, server addressing and port are all restored to
default settings, for example. You will need to login to the online system after
resetting the gateway to recongure the gateway to your desired settings.
Note: If your gateway powers up with the lights scrolling from left to right, it has entered into boot loader
mode accidentally. Make sure the button is free from obstruction and reboot the gateway by removing the
power plug, waiting for 10 seconds then reinserting the power plug.
3. Conguring The Ethernet Gateway
The Ethernet Gateway collects data from all sensors within range and is precongured to
batch deliver the sensor messages to the online system every 5 minutes.
The Ethernet Gateway uses DHCP (Dynamic Host Conguration Protocol) to
automatically acquire a network address from the LAN (Local Area Network). In the
event that it needs to have an address manually assigned to it, you can assign an IP
address as well as a gateway mask and default DNS through the online interface. For
more information on conguring the Monnit Ethernet Gateway please view the support
documentation at http://www.monnit.com/pdf/Ethernet_Gateway_Conguration.pdf.
Note: This advanced conguration is NOT required in most instances. In the event that it is required, you can initialize
the gateway on a network that uses the default DHCP settings, or you can follow the instructions for changing the
conguration settings on a PC, which are included later in this User’s Guide.
Upon logging into the online system as an administrator, select “My Account” then choose
the edit icon next to your sensor network. From there you can alter the heartbeat of the
Ethernet Gateway as well as edit any other congurations available. There is also a
quick link to reset all gateway settings to factory defaults.
4. Insert Batteries Into Wireless Sensors
Important: Make sure your sensors are at least 3ft. away from the wireless sensor
adapter.
Insert batteries into commercial type sensors or use switch on industrial type sensors to
power them on.
Note: It will take 10 - 20 seconds for the sensor to power up. Congurations for your sensors can be changed in
iMonnit. Your new modications will take effect on the next heartbeat. More immediate results can be achieved
by power cycling the sensor. Power cycling is accomplished by removing then re-inserting batteries or using the
power switch to cycle the power.

III. USING THE IMONNIT ONLINE WIRELESS SENSOR SYSTEM
UNDERSTANDING THE ONLINE INTERFACE
When you log into the online system, the default view shows all of your sensors last
recorded data.
Menu System
Details - Displays a graph of recent sensor data.

as time stamped data.
PAGE 7PAGE 6

CONFIGURING SENSOR SETTINGS
To edit the operational settings for a sensor, choose the “Sensor” option in the main navigation
menu then select the “Settings” tab to access the conguration page.
The sensor edit panel allows you to set the primary congurations for the sensor. When you
have nished making changed, press the “Save” button at the bottom of this section.
Note: Be sure to select the “Save” button anytime you make a change to any of the sensor parameters. All changes
made to the sensor settings will be downloaded to the sensor on the next sensor heartbeat (check-in). Once a
change has been made and saved, you will not be able to edit that sensor’s conguration again until it has down-
loaded the new setting.
SENSOR AND/OR GATEWAY NOTIFICATION(S)
Notications for a single sensor or gateway can be created, deleted, and edited by clicking
the “Events” tab in the senor tab bar.
You can toggle the Event Trigger on or off by selecting the switch under Current Event
Triggers.
Creating an Event
Events are triggers or alarms set to let you know when a sensor reading identies that
immediate attention is needed. Types of events include sensor readings, battery level,
device inactivity, and scheduled data. Any one of these can be set to send a notication
or trigger an action in the system. This guide will walk you through creating two types
of events. First a sensor reading notication for a temperature sensor, then an inactivity
notication congured for all sensors.
1. Select Events in the main navigation menu.
2. A list of previously created events will display on the screen. From here, you have the
ability to lter, refresh, and add new events to the list.
Note: If this is your rst time adding an event, the screen will be blank. PAGE 9
PAGE 8

3. From the Events page, tap “Add Event” in the left hand corner.
4. The dropdown menu will have the following options for Event Types:
• Sensor Reading: Set alerts based
on sensor activity or reading.
• Battery Level: This is where you can
set to be notied whend the battery
level drops below a percentage. 15%
is the default setting.
• Device Inactivity: Alerts when the
device doesn’t communicate for an
extended period of time.
• Advanced: Alerts based on
advanced rules, such as comparing
past data points with current ones.
• Scheduled: These are notications
that re at a time set basis.
5. Select Sensor Reading from the dropdown menu.
6. A second dropdown menu will appear. From here, you will be able to see a list of the
different type of sensors registered to your account. Choose Temperature in the dropdown
menu.
7. Next, you will be asked to input the trigger
settings. You have the option of setting this trigger
for greater than or less than a temperature reading
8. Press the “Save” button.
If you don’t have a temperature sensor, the option in this
example won’t be available, select any variable output
sensor and follow along.
Variable output sensors can have multiple event triggers
created.
Example: A temperature sensor used in a freezer.
You may want to be notied if the temperature goes
below 0° or above 30° Fahrenheit. You would create
two events.
• Event 1- Trigger Set for temperatures LESS THAN
0°F.
• Event 2 - Trigger set for temperatures GREATER
THAN 30° F.
9. The Event Information page has a series of tabs across the top.
A. History: A table of all past alert notications for this specic event.
B. Schedule: Here you can schedule the event only to be active at certain times or
certain days.
C. Trigger: This is where you can review your trigger settings.
D. Actions: Where you set the action you want to happen when an alert state is
triggered.
10. Choose the Trigger tab.
11. The Trigger Sensors section sits below “Trigger Conditions.” If you have multiple
sensors for the same type (Example: ve temperature sensors), this is where they will be
listed. There should be at least one sensor in this section.
12. By default, the sensor(s) will not be assigned to the event conditions you’ve just set. To
assign a sensor, nd the device(s) you want to designate for this event and select. Selected
sensor boxes will turn green when activated. Choose the sensor box again to unassign the
sensor from the event.
13. Continue toggling the sensor(s) corresponding to this new event until you are satised
with your selection. These can be adjusted later by returning to this page.
14. Press the “Save” button.
15. Select the Actions tab.
16. Press the Add Action button under the Event Information header and available action
types are presented in a select list.

continue processing until the event
returns to a value that no longer
triggers an event.
• Full Reset: Reset your trigger so it
is armed for the next reading.
• Activate: Enable an event trigger.
• Deactivate: Disable an event trigger.
EXPORTING SENSOR DATA
1. Select Sensors from the main navigation menu.
2. Choose the sensor you need an export for in the list.
3. Pick the History tab.
4. On the far right of the sensor history data is a cloud icon. Selecting this icon will
export an excel le for your sensor into your download folder.
Note: Make sure you have the date range for the data you need input in the “From” and “To” text boxes. This will be
the most recent week by default. Only the rst 2,500 entries in the selected date range will be exported.
The data le will have the following elds:
MessageID: Unique identier of the message in our database.
SensorID: If multiple sensors are exported you can distinguish which reading was from
which using this number even if the names for some reason are the same.
Sensor Name: The name you have given the sensor.
Date: The date the message was transmitted from the sensor.
Value: Data presented with transformations applied but without additional labels.
Formatted Value: Data transformed and presented as it is shown in the monitoring portal.
Battery: Estimated life remaining of the battery.
Raw Data: Raw data as it is stored from the sensor.
Sensor State: Binary eld represented as an integer containing information about the state
or the sensor when the message was transmitted. (See “Sensor State Explained” below).
Gateway ID: The Identier of the gateway that relayed the data from the sensor.
Alert Sent: Boolean indicating if this reading triggered a notication to be sent from the
system.
Signal Strength: Strength of communication signal between the sensor and the gateway,
shown as percentage value.
Voltage: Actual voltage measured at the sensor battery used to calculate battery percent-
age, similar to Received Signal you can use one or the other or both if they help you.
State
The integer presented here is generated from a single byte of stored data. A
byte consists of 8 bits of data that we read as Boolean (True (1)/False (0)) elds.
PAGE 13PAGE 12

Using a temperature sensor as an example.
If the sensor is using factory calibrations the Calibrate Active eld is set True (1) so the bit
values are 00010000 and it is represented as 16.
If the sensor is outside the Min or Max threshold, the Aware State is set True (1) so the bit
values are 00000010 and it is represented as 2.
If the customer has calibrated the sensor this eld the Calibrate Active eld is set False
(0) AND the sensor is operating inside the Min and Max Thresholds, the bits look like
00000000 this is represented as 0.
If the sensor is using factory calibrations and it is outside the threshold the bit values are
00010010 and it is represented as 18 (16 + 2 because both the bit in the 16 value is set
and the bit in the 2 value is set).
Note: These two are the only bits that typically observed outside of our testing procedures.
CALIBRATING SENSOR DATA
Certain wireless sensors can be calibrated for more accurate readings (Example: For
Temperature sensors). If calibration is possible for a sensor, the “Calibrate” tab will be
visible in the tab bar.
A. Go to the tab to open the sensor calibration settings window.
B. To calibrate a sensor, you will want to ensure that the environment of the sensor and
other calibration device is stable. Note the “Expected Next Check-in” time for the sensor
you are calibrating and take a reading from your calibration device a few minutes prior to
the sensors next check-in.
C. Enter the actual (accurate) reading from the calibration device into the text eld.
D. If you need to change the unit of measurement you can do that here.
E. Press “Calibrate”.
To ensure that the calibration command is received prior to the sensors next check-in,
press the control button on the back of the gateway, once, to force communication (Cellular
and Ethernet gateways).
After pressing the "Calibrate" button and choosing the gateway button, the server will send
the command to calibrate the specied sensor to the gateway. When the sensor checks-in,
it will send the pre-calibration reading to the gateway, then receive the calibration command
and update it’s conguration. When the process is completed, it will send a “Calibration
Successful” message. The server will display the sensor’s last pre-calibrated reading for
this check-in, then all future readings from the sensor will be based on the new calibration
setting.
It is important to note that after calibrating the sensor, the sensor reading returned to the
server is based on pre-calibration settings. The new calibration settings will take affect on
the next sensor heartbeat.
Note: If you would like to send the changes to the sensor right away, please remove the battery(s) for a full 60
seconds, then re-insert the battery(s). This forces the communication from the sensor to the gateway and this the
message to make a change from the gateway back to the sensor. (If the sensors are industrial sensors, turn the
sensor off for a full minute, rather than removing the battery).
MANAGE SENSOR NETWORKS
To view or edit information about your wireless sensor network(s), select the Networks box
in the account overview page.
The following network list page allows you to edit details, create new sensor tetworks, and
manage wireless gateways and sensors for your network(s). Find the network you wish to
modify in the list and select it to be taken to to the network edit page.
The network edit page will give the option of
changing the name of your network, enable
notications, enable holding, and review the
Install Tech Access Cut-off Date.
Remember, you must press the “Save”
button after making any changes in this
section.
Below this section is a list of sensors and
gateways attached to the account. Choosing
the icon of a trashcan beside each sensor
will delete it from the network. Selecting
the icon directly above the sensor section
will allow new devices to be added to the
network. Review the steps on registering a
new device on page 3 of this user guide.
Note: A sensor or gateway cannot be recovered once it
has been deleted from the network. It is reccomended that
you export a sensor’s data history before clearing it from
the list.

cause undesired operation.
ID: ######
Code: XXXXXX
• Verify that the gateway was added successfully by checking the Gateways list.
• Click on “About”, then “Local IP Addresses” and make note of the IP address that your
computer is using on your network.
• Connect the Ethernet Gateway directly to the Ethernet port of your PC using a standard
Ethernet cable. Conrm that the PC has no other internet connection (turn off Wi-Fi).
Conrm the PC rewall does not prohibit an inbound connection. Plug power cable into
the Ethernet gateway.
• Plug in the power cable.
• While the device is booting, press and hold the Reset Button on the back of the
gateway. The button must be held in the down position by the time the third green light
illuminates, or else another attempt will need to be made. When the device nishes
booting, all three lights will toggle red, green. Release the button and the device is in
local conguration mode. Do not hold the Reset button for more than four seconds (that
will factory reset the device).
The lights will ash green once every other second while the device attempts to resolve
Ethernet Link State. The lights will ash green once every second while the device
attempts to resolve IP addresses with the host PC. Finally, the lights will ash green
twice every second when device is waiting for valid web trafc.
• Once the PC has setup the direct network, use a web browser (e.g. Chrome) and go to
“192.168.100.1”. The Ethernet gateway Setup screen should now be displayed.
Note: The lights will all turn solid green once this connection has been established.
• Click on the “Data Interfaces” tab.
• Under “Default Server Conguration” enter the IP address that you noted from the
iMonnit Express software into the primary and secondary server [URL/IP] boxes, and
use 3000 as the default communication port, then click “Save Changes”.

•
• When nished, click the “Reboot” button on the top right side of the page to restart the
gateway.
• When the lights begin ashing on the gateway, you can unplug the power to the gate-
way and disconnect it from the computer.
• Reactivate the Wi-Fi or other Internet connection for the computer, so it can connect to
the network.
• Plug your Ethernet gateway into your Internet router and power up the Ethernet
gateway. All three lights should go green now, and your gateway should report into
Monnit Express.
If it does not, check that the PC has the internet connection turned on, recheck your IP
Address, power up your gateway and make sure the gateway is added into Monnit
Express. (If you left your secondary set to point to sensorsgateway.com (which is
iMonnit) and the lights on your gateway are green, check iMonnit to see if the gateway
is reporting in there. If so, power cycle the gateway and try again.)
