2 Introduction
The Layer N Ethernet Gateway (GW-001 Series) is a high-performance gateway that allows for seamless, wireless,
connection to up to 100 long-range Layer N Smart Sensor Devices. The Ethernet-enabled RJ45 connectivity ensures a
direct connection to the Layer N Cloud or to a local-area enterprise network. The local built-in web server is also
accessible through the RJ45 port. The different GW-001 series models support multiple device connection types
including Modbus TCP/RTU RS232/RS485 and USB ports to enable local smart probe connections.
Layer N Cloud and OEG subscription tiers can be purchased on the Omega website.
Important: Users who will only be connecting to a local-area, enterprise ecosystem with Omega Enterprise Gateway
(OEG) do not need to create a Layer N Cloud account to use the Layer N Gateway in Enterprise Mode.
Refer to the following LED Status Indicator table to identify the different Gateway behaviors and statuses.

Important: Do not power on the Layer N Gateway or Layer N Smart Sensor before the Gateway registration is
complete for Layer N Cloud connections. Refer to section 4.1 Registering your Gateway to Layer N
Cloud for more information.

3 GW-001 Hardware Overview
GW-001 series gateways offer the following connector and pairing
options to pair sensing devices to the Gateway (connector options
vary per model):
•Smart Sensor one-button pairing
•USB 2.0 Connector
•Serial Data and Alarm 5-pin screw terminal
•RJ45 connector for local network and Internet access
3.1 Smart Sensor Pairing
Pairing a Layer N Smart Sensor to your Layer N Gateway is made
easy with one-button pairing. Simply press the pairing button on
your gateway and press the pairing button on your Smart Sensor
to connect the two. Your Smart Sensor will now be visible on your
Layer N Cloud or OEG web interface.
3.2 USB 2.0 Connectors
The USB 2.0 connector is used to connect Layer N
Smart Probes with a Layer N IF-001 Smart Interface
Cable directly to your gateway.
3.3 Serial Data and Alarm Connector
The 5-pin terminal can accept RS232 or RS485 inputs
from authorized Omega accessories and devices such
as OM240, CN616A, and DP612. The 5-pin screw
connector on the gateway is labeled as follows:
Pin
Description
Pin 1
TX (D+)
Pin 2
RX (D-)
Pin 3
GND
Pin 4
Alarm (N/O)
Pin 5
Alarm (N/O)
Contact Omega or visit our website to see other compatible devices.
3.3.1 Alarm Relay Wiring
The 5-pin screw terminal can be used to connect a peripheral alarm
relay that will be triggered if the gateway loses network connection
to the Layer N Cloud or OEG.
Note: This alarm will not detect a cabling or wiring issue. The alarm
will sound if the Gateway cannot reach the Layer N Cloud or
OEG network.
3.4 RJ45 Port
An RJ45 port is provided for local-network and Internet access, can be used for ModBus TCP devices, and some models
offer a Power over Ethernet feature.

4 Layer N Gateway First-Time Setup
Refer to the LED color status table below and follow these instructions to power on the GW-001 unit:
LED Color
Status Description
Amber/Orange (solid)
Gateway is powered on; no network connection
Green (blinking repeatedly)
Gateway is in Pairing Mode or Firmware Upgrade was successful
Amber/Orange (blinking +
Reboot)
Gateway firmware automatic update
Red (blinking)
Gateway is powering on or Firmware Upgrade in progress
Amber/Orange (blinking 3
times and a 3 second pause)
Enterprise Mode enabled
Green (solid)
IP Address successfully obtained or network connection successful
No Light
Unit is off or in Sleep Mode
Important: For setups that will use Layer N Cloud, do not power on the Layer N Gateway or Layer N Smart Sensor
before the Gateway has been registered to a Layer N Cloud account. Refer to section 4.1 Registering
your Gateway to Layer N Cloud for more information.
Step 1: Connect the antenna included
with the gateway to the side of
the device housing.
Step 2: Connect the DC 12 V adapter to
the back of the gateway.
Step 3: Connect an RJ45 Ethernet cable
to the port labeled Ethernet 1 on
the gateway.
Step 4: Connect the other end of the
Ethernet cable to a DHCP-
enabled router with Internet
access for first-time setup.
Important: The GW-001 must be connected to a router with internet access when setup for the first time to ensure
the latest firmware is automatically downloaded onto the device.
Step 5: Turn the power switch on the gateway to the ON position.
Step 6: The LED light on the Pairing Button will blink red to indicate that the device is booting up and updating
firmware.
Once the gateway is connected to the Internet, the Layer N Gateway unit will automatically download the latest
firmware available and the LED status indicator will stay a solid green when the update is complete.

4.1 Registering your Gateway to Layer N Cloud
Note: Users who will not be creating a Layer N Cloud account and will
be connecting to Omega Enterprise Gateway (OEG) in a non-
internet environment should refer to section 5 First-Time
Gateway Internal UI Access
To register your Layer N Gateway with Layer N Cloud, you must first
create and register a Layer N Cloud account. Using any device with a web
browser, complete the following steps:
Step 1: Open your browser to cloud.omega.com.
Step 2: Click Sign Up and complete the registration process.
Once the user credentials are verified, the user can sign in and will be
presented with the Layer N Cloud homepage.
Step 3: From the cloud homepage, click Add Gateway.
Step 4: Type in the Gateway ID (GID) from the label on
your gateway.
Step 5: Type in the Registration ID (RID) from the label
on your gateway and click Register.
Important: The label containing your Gateway ID and Register ID
is located on the bottom of the gateway unit.
Step 6: Once you have successfully registered your gateway, an icon will appear next to your registered device.
Note: The icon will disappear once the registered gateway is powered on.

5 First-Time Gateway Internal UI Access
Important: A firmware update for the GW-001 is required to access the internal UI as listed below. The latest
firmware is automatically installed when the GW-001 is connected directly to a router with Internet
access.
All Layer N Gateway models contain an internal user interface (UI) that is used to manually upgrade firmware, add
wired sensing devices to the gateway, and add other external accessories and peripherals. When accessing the gateway
UI for the first time, with the Gateway still plugged in to the DHCP-enabled router with Internet access, follow the steps
below:
Step 1: Using a PC or a device with a web browser on the same network as the connected GW-001, type the following
URL: http://omegaiotgatewayXXXX.local
(Where the XXXX are the last 4 digits of the GW-001 MAC address printed on the rear label).
Important: If the user is unable to access the Gateway UI using the DHCP-router method, the Bonjour Service may
need to be installed. The service can be downloaded from the following URL:
http://omegaupdates.azurewebsites.net/software/bonjour
Step 2: From the gateway UI login screen, enter the password on the rear label of the unit. When entered successfully,
the user will be prompted to create a new password.
Once the user has accessed the UI for the first time, they may leave the network settings as DHCP, or they may choose
a Static IP under the Network Settings menu. Additionally, after the first-time setup, the user may choose to enable
Enterprise Mode to pair the GW-001 to an Omega Enterprise Gateway (OEG) account. Refer to the section titled 6
Registering your Gateway to OEG (Enterprise Mode) to learn more about how to enable Enterprise Mode and to pair a
GW-001 to OEG, or continue below for an explanation of the different menus available in the GW-001 internal UI.
5.1 Connected Devices – Main Interface
The Connected Devices tab is the default page that appears when a user has successfully signed in to the internal
gateway UI. From here, users can add wired devices to the gateway to have them appear in your Layer N Cloud or
OEG account. Wirelessly paired devices will appear here as well. To pair a wired device to your gateway from the
internal gateway web UI, begin by clicking the button at the top right of the web page. For more
information on how to pair a wireless sensing device such as a Layer N Smart Probe or Smart Sensor, refer to
section: 7 How to Pair a Sensing Device to a Layer N Gateway.
