Accessing the Main Page
The following steps will help you access the browser based configuration of the gateway. By default,
DHCP is enabled. If the gateway fails to obtain an IP address over DHCP it will Auto IP with 169.254.X.Y.
For more information on your Operating system network setting refer to the Access Browser
Configuration Doc on the CD or download from our support web site.
1) Insert the provided CD-ROM into a computer also on the network.
2) Run the IPSetup.exe program from the CD-ROM.
3) Find unit under “Select a Unit”.
a. Change Gateway’s IP address to match that of your PC if DHCP has failed.
i. You will know DHCP has failed if the gateway’s IP address is AutoIP at 169.254.X.Y.
ii. If successful, it will say DHCP’d at ex: 192.168.0.100 or however your DCHP Client is set up.
b. If you do not see the gateway in this tool, then your PC is most likely set up as a static IP.
i. Change your PC’s network settings to be DHCP. If DHCP fails, then it will change to be on the 169.254.x.y
network.
ii. Relaunch the IP Setup tool to see if gateway can be discovered now.
4) Click Launch Webpage. The Main page should appear.
Default setting is set to DHCP. If DHCP fails, default IP Address is 169.254.x.y

Error: Main Page Does Not Launch
If the Main Page does not launch, please verify the following:
1) Check that the PC is set for a valid IP Address
a. Open a MS-DOS Command Prompt
b. Type “ipconfig” and press enter
c. Note the PC’s IP Address, Subnet, and Default Gateway
2) The gateway must be on the same Network/Subnet as the PC whether it’s setup for DHCP or Static.
Once you have both devices on the same network, you should be able to ping the gateway using a MS-
DOS Command Prompt.
The Screenshot above shows a gateway that is currently set to a static IP Address of 192.168.0.100.
If you are able to successfully ping your gateway, open a browser and try to view the main page of the
gateway by entering the IP Address of the gateway as the URL.

Committing Changes to the Settings
•All changes made to the settings of the gateway in Configuration Mode will not take effect until the
gateway is restarted via the webpage. Changes will not be stored if the gateway’s power is removed
prior to a reboot.
•NOTE: The gateway does not need to be restarted after every change. Multiple changes can be made
before a restart, but they will not be committed until the gateway is restarted.
•When all desired changes have been made, press the Restart Now button.
•The webpage will redirect to our rebooting page shown below:
•The reboot can take up to 20 seconds.
oIf the IP address has not been modified, the gateway will automatically redirect to the main page.
oIf the IP address was modified, a message will appear at the top of the page to instruct the user to
manually open a new webpage at that new IP.

Once you are done configuring the Network Settings, click the Save Parameters button.
If you are changing the IP Address of the gateway, the change will not take effect until the unit has been
rebooted. After reboot, you must enter the new IP Address into the URL.
It is recommended to leave the DNS Gateway set to 0.0.0.0 and the Ethernet Link as
Auto-Negotiate. If configuring the gateway to use E-mail, the DNS Gateway must be
set.

PROFINET IO Server Configuration
Click the PROFINET IO Server button to display the configuration page.
1) Select which Network Interface to use for this PROFINET IO connection. If using single port
hardware, the Network Interface will default to Ethernet Port only.
2) Device Label: This is the PROFINET name that is assigned by TIA Portal or Classic STEP 7.
Note: To properly set communication to the PROFINET controller, you will need to install the GSD file
that is downloadable on the configuration web page or on the CD that was shipped with the unit. For
instructions on how to do this, please see the Setting up the PLC- Example Using Simatic Step 7 software
and Setting up the PLC- Example Using TIA Portal sections.
WARNING:
This gateway does not support the assignment of the IP address via the IO controller function. This
function must be disabled for the system to function properly.

PROFINET IO Server Slot Configuration
The bottom area of the PROFINET IO Server Configuration page lets you configure multiple input and
output slots.
1) Profinet server supports 1248 Input bytes and 1248 Output bytes.
2) Data Size is configurable. Options include: 8, 16, 32, 64, and 128 Bytes.
3) Data Format sets the formatting of the data. Automap will use this packing size to map data to/from
the other protocol.
There are three ways to configure this protocol:
1) Auto-Configure Group by Device (Default)
2) Auto-Configure Group by Data Type
3) Manual Mode
NOTE: You may go back and forth between modes, but when reverting from Manual Mode to either of
the two Auto-Configure Modes, all changes made in Manual Mode will be discarded.

PROFINET IO Server Slot Configuration: Auto-Configure
While in either of the two Auto-Configure Modes, the data slots themselves cannot be edited. Auto-
Configure Mode looks at the other protocol and then configures the data slots to match. The Data
formats will be defined after the other protocol is configured.
The data will be configured according to the following rules:
1) Any 8 Bit Signed/Unsigned data will be mapped as 8 Bit Int or 8 Bit Uint,matching signs whenever
possible.
2) Any 16 Bit Signed/Unsigned data will be mapped as 16 Bit Int or 16 Bit Uint,matching signs
whenever possible.
3) Any 32 Bit Signed/Unsigned data will be mapped as 32 Bit Int or 32 Bit Uint,matching signs
whenever possible.
4) Any 64 Bit Signed/Unsigned data will be mapped as 64 Bit Int or 64 Bit Uint,matching signs
whenever possible.
5) Any 32 Bit Float will be mapped as 32 Bit Float.
6) Any 64 Bit Float will be mapped as 64 Bit Float.
7) Any Strings will be mapped as Short String.
8) Any Coils or 1/8/16/32 Bit Binary Packs will be mapped as Binary 8 Bit Pack/Binary 16 Bit
Pack/Binary 32 Bit Pack,matching bit sizes whenever possible.
9) The input or output direction depends on whether it is configured as an input/read or output/write
on the other protocol.
10) If the other protocol exceeds the number of data size supported, then nothing will be mapped. You
will see all the data size values remain disabled and the main page will display the following error:
a) To fix this error, simply decrease the amount of data you configured on the other protocol so
that the max data size is not exceeded or call customer support to increase the limits.
To edit slot data sizes or formats you will need to go into Manual Configure Mode.
NOTE: When using a String Data Type, the 1st byte of each slot is reserved
for the Length field. The remaining bytes will be used for the actual data.

Auto-Configure Group by Device vs. Auto-Configure Group by Data
Type
There are two different methods for Auto-Configure: Group by Device or Group by Data Type.
There are a couple of rules to keep in mind when using Auto-Configure Mode:
1) If the other protocol inside the gateway is a server, slave, or adapter protocol, then there are no
differences between the Auto-Configure Modes.
Group by Device (Default Method)
Group by Device goes through the other protocol on the gateway and auto-configures the data groups
on the PROFINET server for all the data points on the other protocol’s first device. After it finishes with
the first device, it will auto-configure all the points for the second device (if one is configured), and so
on.
The data in this method is not optimized- there could potentially be a lot of wasted/unused data space,
but it will be organized more logically from the master/client’s point of view.
Group by Data Type
Group by Data Type goes through the other protocol on the gateway and auto-configures the data
groups on the PROFINET server for all the data points within the other protocol.
Another way to view this option is to say that the data points allocated are packed together so there is
very little wasted data space. The data is packed or optimized.
Example:Protocol A is a master/client protocol that has 2 devices with the same setup:
Device_1 has 1 integer scan line, 1 float scan line, 1 integer scan line- each for 1 point of data
Device_2 has 1 integer scan line, 1 float scan line, 1 integer scan line- each for 1 point of data
Protocol B is a server/slave/adapter protocol that can be mapped as follows:
Group by Device - Protocol B will have 4 scan lines that will look like the following: Scan Line 1 and 2 will
represent Device_1 and Scan Line 3 and 4 will represent Device_2.
Scan Line 1 => Type Integer, length of 2
Scan Line 2 => Type Float, length of 1
Scan Line 3 => Type Integer, length of 2
Scan Line 4 => Type Float, length of 1
Group by Data Type - Protocol B will have 2 scan lines that will look like the following: All like data types
from Device_1 and Device_2 will be combined.
Scan Line 1 => Type Integer, length of 4
Scan Line 2 => Type Float, length of 2
