1Introduction
The ensusRF™ Integrated Gateway is responsible for integrating ensus RF Endpoints with an AMR
(automatic meter reading) system platform via a cellular network data connection. A network of Integrated
Gateways is managed by a centralized network management platform IRI
1
. The Gateway receives readings
and alarms from meters and repeaters and transmits them to the IRI server. Meter information collected
by IRI can either be passed to the ensus Meter Data Manager Hemera
2
or a utility’s own Meter Data
Manager. An individual Gateway can also be managed locally by its own internal IRI Light management
system instead of the centralized IRI server.
The ensusRF Gateway has an inbuilt webserver that can display and configure information about the
Gateway itself, perform the configurations of GPR , Ethernet and IRI Lite erver, verify Task tatus,
upgrade firmware and verify radio information that is being collected.
The Gateway can send the information through GPR using a IM card or through the Internet using an
Ethernet cable. This document will describe the operation of ensusRF Integrated Gateway and a step-by-
step of configuration that must be executed on ensusRF Gateway webserver.
Warning: The power supply has live parts when switched on that may cause electric shock. The electrical
installation must be made by a trained professional.
Disposal: ome versions of this product may contain rechargeable batteries. In the interest of protecting
the environment, these batteries may not be disposed in household waste.
The local and national regulations for environmental protection are to be considered.

2Hardware Description
2.1 Packaging
The package contains:
•The ensusRF Integrated Gateway
•Gateway U B cable
•2 Antennas (one ensusRF, one GPR )
•Installation Guide

Power upply GPR antenna ensusRF antenna
Warning: Internally there are live parts when switched on that may cause electric shock. The electrical
installation must be made by a trained professional.
The power supply is suitable for AC 88-264 volts, 50-60Hz.
Connect the GPR /G M antenna, handtight only.
Connect ensusRF antenna, handtight only. There are two different antennas available for the gateway
(one for 433 MHz and a different one for 868 MHz). The antenna supplied with the gateway will match the
ensusRF frequency of the Gateway.

Attention: Before opening the cabinet, make sure that all AC power is disconnected!
Warning: Internally there are live parts when switched on that may cause electric shock. The electrical
installation must be made by a trained professional.
AC POWER UPPLY
AC INPUT 88 ~ 264 VAC
Frequency 50-60 Hz
Output Voltage 12V
Output Current 0.83 A
Output Power 10W max
5.2 ptional DC power supply
There is an option for the Gateway to be powered by DC e.g. using olar panel with battery backup.
To connect an optional DC power supply:
Warning: Internally there are live parts that may cause
electric shock when switched on. The electrical
installation must be made by a trained professional.
Disconnect the AC voltage cable from the mains power
supply and disconnect and remove it from the Gateway.
Use the cable from the external DC feed pull it through
the cable fixing screw.
Connect the DC voltage to the green DC input terminal
connector indicated below. Ensure the polarity is
correct!
