1.Introduction
1.1.Product Description
VG1001 UWB Gateway is designed to collect data from UWB Tags when UWB tags
are within 3m and stay for at least 1 second. The collecting process might affect
the alarm and recording function of UWB Tag. The collected data will be uploaded
to the designated server, and will be only held by the owner of UWB Gateway and
server.
1.2.Typical Applications
In typical cases, UWB Gateway is mounted near main entrance, and connected to
a designated local server. When a person carries a UWB Tag through the main
entrance, if the distance between the UWB Tag and the UWB Gateway is within
3m and stay for more than 1 second, the recorded alarm data in the UWB Tag will
be collected by the UWB Gateway, and finally be uploaded to the server.

3.2.Power supply
UWB Gateway has two power supply methods: PoE and DC.
Power over Ethernet Use Cat 5+ network cable to connect PoE switch (which meets
the 802.3af standards) and UWB Gateway. Note that the distance between PoE
switch and UWB Gateway should not exceed 80 meters. This method uses a single
cable to achieve both power and network connection.
DC Power UWB Gateway uses 24VDC/1A adapter for power supply. Please use the
original adapter or selected adapter that meets the above specifications. At the
same time, use Cat 5+ network cable to connect an ordinary network switch and
the UWB Gateway to achieve network connection.

4.2.Network configuration
You need the “Social Distancing Contact Tracing Software” to configure the
Gateway. Please refer to “Software Installation and Deployment Instructions” for
detailed configuration steps. If you don’t get the software, contact your
system administrator for help. Here is the basic network knowledge of the
UWB Gateway.
The VG1001 UWB Gateway uses a fixed IP address to access the network and does
not support either the DHCP function, nor the network domain name function.
The default IP of the UWB Gateway is "192.168.1.X" and the network port number
is "48200". The X in IP varies with the ID of the UWB Gateway. You can get the
default IP from the label on the packaging box.
Before modifying the network settings of the UWB Gateway, you should first
modify the IP address of the computer. It is recommended to configure the
computer's network as:
5.Data Collection
The main purpose of VG1001UWB Gateway is to collect data from UWB Tags. It
takes about 1 second for each UWB Tag to upload its alarm records. The effective
data collection zone is a circle with a radius of 3m and centered on the
UWB Gateway. Please ensure that UWB Tags stay in the collection zone for more
than 1 second to ensure the collecting process.
During collecting, the alarm function of UWB Tags may be interfered. It will return
to normal when leaving the data collection zone.
The collected data will be uploaded to the designated server, and is only owned
and controlled by the owner of the server.
